Enhanced doggy daycare for your best furry friend! Small groups with a higher than average staff:dog ratio. We keep toys and chews out on the playfloor unlike many other daycares and reward good behavior throughout the day. Play periods and crated rest periods throughout the day. We also clip toenails every other week as part of your Canine Camp experience.
Drop Off: 7-9am
Pick Up: 3-5:30pm
For this half day Canine Camp or Teen Track Assessment you will drop your pup off at 8:30am and pick up at 12:15pm. Your dog will first get to explore the playfloor on their own. Then we will introduce a dog to the space. If that goes well we will continue to add dogs one at a time to create a small playgroup. For pups heading towards a Teen Track training program we will see how they feel about food and training. Lastly, we will crate them to see if they will crate/nap reasonably quietly.
This is the first step you will take to enroll your puppy in our Puppy Prep School. You will meet with one of our trainers to answer any questions you may have, meet your puppy, and go over goals for your new puppy!
**If you have already had a pup enrolled in Prep School you are not required to do another Welcome Meeting!**
This class will teach you how to help your pup become a cooperative participant in their own healthcare and grooming. If your dog struggles with grooming, handling at the vet, ear care, eye care, or nail trims this class is for you. Cooperative care takes the stress out of these less than exciting events for your dog.
Dogs should have an understanding of nose/hand targets, sit, down, place, and stay prior to signing up for this class.
