Did you know simple games can teach dogs important skills? 🐾

“Catch the treat” helps dogs practice name recognition, patience, and taking turns all while having fun!

At WOOFS!, we use games like this throughout the day to keep our daycare dogs mentally stimulated, confident, and happy.

Feeling safe should always be a priority when dogs are meeting new friends. At WOOFS!, we personalize the experience for every dog, matching them with the right playmates and supporting them at their own pace.

Our handlers focus on both physical and emotional comfort, using small groups, structured introductions, and enrichment activities to help dogs feel confident and relaxed.

Every visit is designed with care so your dog can enjoy social time safely and happily!

BATCH 3 and FINAL! In our Daycare PLUS photo set dog training, we always work on stays, but our Thanksgiving twist: can our Daycare PLUS dogs also stay in pairs? Inspired by the season of togetherness, we challenged our pups to sit at the table with a friend. While we often photograph dogs from the same household, asking unrelated dogs to share space (and camera time!) is a whole new level of teamwork. It means sitting close together, strong enough stays that both dogs look at camera at the same time, and if we’re lucky, getting two smiles in the same shot!

There were definitely some points I felt crazy to attempt this, but I'm so impressed with how many dogs were able to do the double dog stays! -- Erica

At WOOFS!, we believe daycare should feel safe, respectful, and intentional. Dogs thrive when they are understood as individuals, so our approach centers on thoughtful play groups, skilled handlers, and activities that build confidence.

We focus on emotional well being and quality care because your dog deserves a place designed for their growth.

Congratulations to Yeti and Rosie, who earned their AKC Canine Good Citizen certificates over the weekend at WOOFS! Both pups have just completed Canine Good Citizen class with Jen Thomas and have been working hard.

Kudos as well to all the teams who tested this weekend—even if you didn’t check off all ten items yet, you’re making great progress toward your goal.

DOUBLE DOG DOWN! this week in Daycare PLUS, our pups get to practice lying down with a partner, and maybe even staying, a down stay. This is so much harder than single dog down or stay, because any movement from one dog encourages the other to pop up.

For advanced pups, we can even practice having one dog stay while the other gets up and does a trick like spin!

We will be working on this for TWO weeks, because it’s great practice for the upcoming holiday season.
