Appropriate, moderated play is vital for raising a socially intelligent puppy. Lucky for you we offer several options for your pup to engage with others in a safe environment.
Unlike Day Care or a Dog Park, our Happy Hours are structured and led by our trainers. We allow for safe play with pups well matched to one another's play styles and most importabtly, we offer several calm down breaks during the 45 minutes to help teach you how to help regulate your puppy's big feelings during play.

There often comes a time when your pup will need to be muzzled at some point in their life. For some dogs, this may be a more common event if they have fearful reactions at the vet or around people on walks.
Basket muzzles are a wonderful tool that, when acclimated positively, give your dog more freedom and confidence. If they are already used to wearing a muzzle and a vet office opts to use one, it won't add stress to the visit.
In this video trainer Janice is working on a muzzle training session with Otto, a reactive german shepherd. He will feel comfortable wearing this muzzle while at the vet and therefore be far less stressed during his visits.
Our certified trainers can help you if your dog needs to wear a muzzle for any reason. We also recommend the online community Muzzle Up, Pup! - The Pro-Muzzle Community to connect with other owners who are encountering the need to muzzle their dogs.

Structured Puppy Play Hours are an excellent way to provide appropriate socialization for your dog. Punctuating play time with calm settling near other dogs is key to creating a dog who can be around other dogs without losing their little puppy mind.
Come have a blast with your dog! See you Tuesday!
Some dogs just LOVE TO PULL. Walking at the pace of a human is a skill that dogs need to be taught. Their natural pace is faster than us and it can be really frustrating for a dog to walk slowly next to their person.
Nessie has been working really hard both in class, at home, and at Day Training to learn this skill. She recently acclimated to a head halter to help her owner guide her a little better. Trainer Vic and her are shown here walking so nicely together during her day at Day Training! Notice she needs frequent reminders to stay in side position, but she is eager to come back each time! The more practice and reinforcement she recieves, she will be able to stay in this position longer and longer until it will be second nature to her.
Good girl Nessie!!
Our Day Training program is as versatile as our private training packages. We customize a training plan for your dog that makes sense!
With our drop off training program, we have the ability to practice your dog's real world skills by bringing them off location to stores or the local park, build your dog's confidence with puzzle solving exercises, create a well mannered dog around other dogs with small structured play groups and through training exercises around fellow Day Training dogs.
The benefits for you? A happy, tuckered out pup at pick-up who is ready to work on skills at home with you the rest of the week! Don't worry about knowing what to work on either - we got you covered! You will receive an email with video and written instructions on how to train the skills we worked on at home.
Day Training is for dogs of all ages; be it a brand new puppy learning beginner basics or an older pup who needs help overcoming some unwanted behaviors. All dogs need to start with a trial day to make sure the drop off program is a good fit for them. Schedule your dog's trial day today!

Did you know we offer Puppy Happy Hours to help facilitate safe and appropriate puppy play for our clients?
Play is important for puppies as it helps them develop essential social skills. Through play, puppies learn how to interact with other dogs, communicate effectively, and follow social rules. This helps their growth and development into well-adjusted adult dogs.
Puppy Happy Hours are open to dogs under 1 year of age but we will divide into different play groups based on age, size, temperament and play style.
Join us Tuesday, 9/10 at 5pm for our next happy hour by signing up here:

Do you have a dog who likes to move? Ever considered Agility? Does your dog enjoy training? Is your dog higher energy or require more physical exercise than others? Is your dog shy or nervous? Do you want to help your dog develop thinking skills and build their confidence?
We encourage you to consider our unique Movement & Obstacles class! This class introduces the concept of “Movement Puzzles” to build an obstacle course that the dog learns to do independently from the owner. Check out https://themovingcanine.com to see where the concept for this class came from.
Our next 4 week Introduction class is scheduled for Sunday 9/8 at 2:45pm. Join us by signing up now at:
