Controlled Group Play With Other Puppies

Our professional trainers are experts in dog body language and play. Your pup will be specifically placed with other puppies that match your dog’s play style and energy level so that this is a fun experience for your puppy. We want your pup to learn how to play well with other dogs, how to read their body language, respond appropriately and how to take breaks and come back to you when needed.

You'll Also Receive:

Daily updates on your puppy’s progress at pick up as well as weekly report cards, and emails updating you on everything your pup learned that week and how you can continue that training at home.
