 Downtown Dogs University

Board & Train and Daycare & Train Programs

Does Rover need to learn his basic commands? Or, does he need tutoring in a specific subject? If so, have him attend Downtown Dogs University, our unique daycare/board and train programs. Our programs are designed to help asist busy owners get started on the right foot.  At DDU, we make learning fun. Your dog will get to frolic with friends, burn some energy, and of course attend class. Our trainers will work individually with your dog to learn and practice new skills.  At the end of each course, parent/teacher conferences are scheduled to review all that was learned, and discuss the student’s progress. Homework is given to continue the learning at home.

Please Note - Owner's must be active participants in order to achieve success with this program!


Daycare & Train


Dogs will spend the day at daycare and get pulled off the floor for private training sessions. Owners will get progress reports stating how they did during training and owners will get homework.  There will be a meeting with the trainer at the end of the sessions to discuss progress made.  For all courses, dogs must be dropped off before 9 am and picked up after 5 pm.
