DAY SCHOOL FOR DOGS

At The Dog House, we strive to provide an enriching environment for dogs that don't necessarily thrive in a typical daycare setting. To teach them new skills, build their confidence, and help them grow into the best version of themselves. 

Our goal is to help all of the misfit, misunderstood, challenging, reactive, quirky, high drive, and any other word that's been used to describe all the amazing dogs we've had the privilege of meeting and will get to meet in the future.

~WHAT THE DAY WILL LOOK LIKE~

Drop off/Pickup times between 7-8:30, 11:30-1, and 4:30-6.

This will allow us to focus on training without the interruptions, keep the dogs more engaged and relaxed, and insure they're getting the most out of our program. 

~Our classes throughout the day involve~

Fitness Class: giving them a chance to get out all the excess energy through different activities including, flirt pole, treadmill time, tug, agility courses, and strength building.

Obedience Class: focusing on all the basics, Sit, Down, Stay, Come, Leash walking, and remaining neutral around other leashed dogs. Once they have a good foundation, we graduate to more advanced obedience. 

Specialty Classes: every day we add in different activities to help stimulate your dog's brain and give them a break from the repetitiveness of obedience training. The specialty classes may include, Scent games, trick training, agility training, or walks to the park (weather and dog dependent). 

Social Time: we have small play groups throughout the day, 2-6 dogs, depending on the individual dogs. As well as working on proper introductions with new dogs and appropriate play styles.

All of these classes will be tailored to fit each dog's level and be challenging enough for them to be continually progressing. 

At The Dog House we believe in relationship first training. Meaning every dog is going to be progressing at different speeds and will not be pushed past their limits just to get "results". We focus on the confidence and mindset first, creating a desire and love for learning.

In between their training sessions they will get some down time (in our 5x5 kennels, with a cot, water, and enrichment toys) to prevent them from constantly being in an 

overstimulated mindset.

We will also be offering group classes throughout the month. 

So, you're able to learn everything along with your dogs!

First half-day FREE for all new clients!   

Overnight boarding available.

Boarding includes outside time throughout the day

We believe that training should be a fun and rewarding experience for you and your dog. Our group classes will help you with the skills you need to build that lasting relationship, create confidence in you and your dog, and give training that you can take into everyday life.
