Shantel's Wagging Tails

Shantel's Wagging Tails At Shantel’s Wagging Tails our goal is to offer a calm, positive and most importantly safe environ We are very proud to offer open concept boarding.

Come join the Wagging Tails family, with a highly trained staff, large play area and convenient hours you will never look back! We are a triple threat offering DAYCARE, BOARDING and TRAINING! Our very popular daycare program offers a fun and safe environment for your pups to play and learn. A day of daycare includes interactive games, outdoor activities, training sessions, nap time and of course l

ots of dog –dog play! Throughout the day the boarders join our wonderful daycare pups in games, activities and training sessions. Once things have settled down and the pups are sufficiently worn-out they are kenneled for a good night sleep. Something that separates us from other boarding facilities is that we only take 4 clients at a time this allows us to give each dog the individual attention they deserve! What is Clicker training? Clicker training is a method of training that uses positive reinforcement such as a food treat, along with a clicker (small mechanical noisemaker) to mark the behavior being reinforced. We are happy to announce that all of our group classes as well as all work we do with behavior modification is now clicker based!

Daycare Spotlight: Mabel, Zoomies & Schemes Specialist

Make way for Mabel! This speedy chocolate lab zips through the yard like a race car and doubles as a very enthusiastic teacher to her big sister Martie. Her latest lesson? How to jump on people for attention… so they both get extra snacks while learning not to. Smart? Maybe. Sneaky? Absolutely.

Daycare Spotlight: Charlie Myles, Our Official Snack Scheduler

Give it up for Charlie Myles! This sweet black Lab is everyone’s best friend—and our trusty reminder that lunch hits at exactly 11:30 AM. He never lets us forget, and he’s more than willing to sample a few treats along the way (purely for quality control, of course).
