6) Play & Train

at K9 to Five in Hanover

Introduction: The benefits of mental activity, in play and in learning are essential to the well-being of any dog. Play and Train is an innovative program created to offer a constant source of mental stimulation with play and obedience training throughout the day. Day care allows a dog to play and be socialized in a controlled environment while you are at work.

With Play and Train, your dog will get the benefits of day care but will additionally receive training sessions throughout the day, encompassing the commands designed to make life easier for the both of you. Among these are; sit, down, loose leash, place, sit-stay, down-stay, place-stay, with an emphasis placed on your particular training needs and any issues your dog may have such as fear about handling, nail clipping, certain objects, etc. Some tricks will be thrown in for the enjoyment of the dogs and their people. Our training methodology only uses positive motivational methods such as clicker training.
