    Our Enrichment Daycare builds on genetically predisposed behaviors in a positive way. We challenge natural drives such as: chasing, sniffing, carrying objects, chewing, herding, climbing, etc. By challenging these natural behaviors, we help curb destructive or maladaptive behaviors such as chewing furniture, destroying objects, jumping, and more. 

    Each enrichment activity is designed to provide an engaging, natural outlet while working on your dog’s physical and mental needs.

    This program is appropriate for dogs who prefer the presence of humans only, smaller groups of dogs, or who get overstimulated in larger group settings.


    This includes (3) enrichment sessions and a lunch break during the day. Enrichment sessions can include small group play, fitness & agility, massage, nose work, chase games, herding games, and more.

    There are no prerequisite skills for this class. I really want to make it as easy and fun for everyone as possible! I do ask that your dog be accepting of strangers this way I can work in close proximity to you!
