What is Doggy Daycare?
Doggy daycare provides dogs with a social setting which allows them to learn proper interaction with other dogs and humans. Barkalounge’s cage-free environment allows your dog to socialize freely and get the exercise that is so beneficial to their health and well being. Our 4,800 square foot facility is specifically designed with your dog’s comfort and safety in mind. We understand that the needs of dogs, just like people, are different and accommodate large, small, exuberant, and shy dogs in multiple large play rooms.

Your dog will enjoy the day running, playing, socializing, and relaxing. Quiet periods are a part of each day at Barkalounge—we want your dog to come home tired and happy but not exhausted!

What your DOG gets:
  • Year round exercise in a large indoor play area
  • Healthy treats
  • Socialization
  • Lots of love and attention
What YOU get:
  • A report card detailing your dog’s activities
  • Peace of mind and entertainment watching your dog on our doggy cam

    AND
  • A tired and happy dog!

Training Classes

Objective

We offer a positive, reward-based training class designed to show you how to effectively train your dog to perform behaviors that are used and needed everyday.  By learning to properly communicate with your dog, s/he can become a loved and valued member of your family.  You will strengthen (or in some cases, develop) the bond you have with your dog, you will have a more well-mannered friend to share your life with, and you will have a pet that other people like to be around, as well as one that is welcome in public places.

You will be learning basics such as sit, down, stay, come here, stand, heel, leave it, and more.  The two of you will work as a team in a friendly, small-class environment using a non-threatening, non-abusive method of dog training.  We encourage other members of your family, or anyone who has significant contact with your dog, to come along to class with you so that everyone is receiving the same instruction and information.  Consistency is one of the keys to success!

Also in class, we will problem-solve behavior issues that dogs are having at home.  Small changes in your behavior and home life can reap huge rewards relative to happily co-habitating with your canine companion.  Frequently, all people need is a little guidance, instruction, motivation, and structure to make this endeavor successful, as well as fun and rewarding, for you and your dog!

Class size is limited so that everyone can receive personal attention and instruction.  Class participants are not required to be enrolled in Barkalounge Doggy Daycare.
