We offer Monday - Friday daycare where daycare dogs are socialized through exposure to other dogs of different breeds and ages. Daycare dogs undergo functional (ease of handling) and formal (structured commands) obedience training. This provides the dogs with plenty of mental and physical stimulation which not only reduces nuisance and destructive behaviours but also promotes learning for both handlers and their dogs.
In addition to the daycare, group classes are held by our qualified instructors at a variety of venues at various times during the week and on weekends. We teach all disciplines such as obedience, personal protection, tracking, article detection and agility.
Our 3 or 5-week inboard training program provides more intensive training and behaviour correction. During this program dogs live with us as part of the family for the duration of their stay and undergo socialization as well as training not only in the home but in various environments such as restaurants, parks and travelling in vehicles. This is so that your beloved pet returns home with the desired changes to behaviour to allow for a happy household.
