The Puppy Den

The Puppy Den The Puppy Den is the first daycare and training center in Madison exclusively for puppies only!

The Puppy Den was created as the area's first puppy exclusive daycare and training center! Our philosophy is to treat your puppy like our very own when they come to play with us. The Puppy Den’s play floors are specially designed and structured for your individual puppy based on their age and developmental stage in their life. Unlike adult dogs, puppies are learning everything for the very first t

ime, so these first experiences are crucial for development. Our trained staff will provide constant supervision and guidance to make sure your puppy is having a fun and educational experience when they come to play! Our training classes use proven, science-based and positive-reinforcement methods to help your puppy grow up to be the best dog they can be! From Puppy Kindergarten to our All Star Program to outdoor workshops, our classes will cover the most important things for you and your puppy to know to build a strong and lasting relationship with your new best friend
Our team of puppy experts will help you through the most fun and crucial period of your pup's development - from when you bring them home until they reach about a year of age.

Happy Deniversary, Claudine! 🎉🐾

Claudine is a friendly face at our East side location! You might also spot her volunteering at the Czar’s Promise Walk or helping bring the holiday spirit as an elf for Santa Paws.

She loves watching dogs form new friendships, whether it’s with other dogs or their favorite humans. Seeing how much they enjoy the Enrichment Program makes every day rewarding for her.

Thank you, Claudine, for everything you do for the dogs in our care—we’re lucky to have you! 💙🐾
