Getting Started!
General Meet and Greet
show description
The meet and greet is the first step to help your pup get comfortable with walks, pop-ins, sitting, and overnights. If you're interested in booking any of these services but would like your dog to meet one of our friendly team members first, we're happy to arrange that for you! 


Please note, there is a fee for meet and greets, but rest assured, 100% of that fee goes directly to the team member you meet, in appreciation of their time and care!

Pack Activity Evaluation
show description
This meet and greet is the first step to getting started with any enrichment or pack play activities. We evaluate your pup for eligibility to join our pack activities, such as Pack Play, Pack Meetups, and our new Pack Field Trips! Training enrollment is not required for pack activity eligibility; however, most of our packs are graduates of either our Puppy Preschool, K9 K-12, or an equivalent training program. These programs place a strong emphasis on socialization and communication skills, giving our graduates a significant advantage. 


Our group activities are designed for a select group of pups who are well-socialized, pack-oriented, have a compatible play style, and possess excellent human-to-canine communication skills.

Rescue Rehab
show description
Adopting a rescue dog is a rewarding and fulfilling choice that will mean the world to the new pup in your life. As fellow rescue pup parents, we know that welcoming your new family member into your home also has challenges. Whether it's something small or large, we are here to support you and your pup so you may all live your best lives together!

 

Our Rescue Rehab class is as much a training class for your pup as it is for you. First, we start with a temperament test to gauge where your pup is at and meet with you for a Pet Parent Check-in to identify areas you want to work on and your personal goals. Based on your pup's needs, we also set up special socialization, counter-conditioning, and desensitization sessions in a safe, low-stress manner to help your pup overcome any behavioral obstacles they may have. 


Class Length: 4 weeks

 Sessions: 10

 

NOTE: This course is designed for rescue pup parents with pups over 1 year old. If your pup is under 1 year old, we recommend our Puppy Preschool class unless you have specific concerns about where this class may be more relevant.
