In Home Day Care, Training & Socialization
Occasionally dogs can benefit from spending some time with me in my home. I reinforce daily manners such as, not barging through doors, jumping or being mouthy. Dogs learn to play and socialize together and I encourage them to sit politely if they want food or treats. If you have training needs, they may be able to be addressed while staying with me. Further training for you in your home is necessary to learn the commands your dog did, and for all of you to learn your new roles in the family's pack. $30-$55/day
