No time? No problem!
Training your dog successfully requires you to be consistent with practice. At MuttSchool, we understand that life can get hectic, leaving you with little time to focus on training your dog. But don't worry! Our experienced and dedicated trainers are here to provide your dog with the right foundation skills, impeccable manners, and essential socialization, all while you tackle your day-to-day responsibilities.
Leave the stress behind
Training a dog also requires time, effort and expertise. Let us check off another box on your "to do" list. Go about your day knowing that our professional trainers are taking care of your dog's training needs.
Small playgroups
At DaySchool, the well-being and happiness of every dog are our top priorities. That's why we have a thorough process in place to ensure that all dogs attending our school are placed in playgroups with other dogs that suit their individual play styles. Each dog undergoes a play style compatibility test to assess their preferences and social behaviors. Based on the results, we carefully assign them to small playgroups consisting of SIX dogs or fewer. By maintaining these small groups, we create a safe and comfortable environment for our furry clients, allowing them to engage in positive interactions and build strong social connections. We firmly believe that running large groups of dogs together in a daycare setting can be overwhelming and potentially lead to unnecessary stress and conflicts. Therefore, at MuttSchool, we remain committed to providing personalized attention and small group tailored play experiences to every dog that comes through our doors.
Comprehensive Training Curriculum
At MuttSchool, we believe in providing a comprehensive training experience for you and your dog. Our curriculum is comprised of six weekly topics that are integrated across our various services. Whether you and your dog are enrolled in group classes or foundation private lessons, you can expect our trainers to focus on the same weekly topic during DaySchool. This approach ensures consistency in training and helps to reinforce the concepts you and your dog are learning through our other services. By aligning our topics across our different programs, we create a cohesive learning experience that benefits both dogs and their owners by helping dogs generalize their understanding of cues (commands) between various handlers. This allows for a seamless transition between different training settings and maximizes the effectiveness of our teaching methods. So, regardless of the specific program you choose, you can be confident that your dog will receive consistent and well-rounded training that builds upon our six proprietary training topics.
Establishing a routine for stress reduction
Reducing stress and promoting a balanced lifestyle for your furry companion is part of our DaySchool mission. At MuttSchool, we go the extra mile to provide a structured routine that prioritizes your dog's well-being.
REST PERIODS: Our commitment to training means that your dog will experience a variety of mentally stimulating activities. Much like young humans, after an active work period, dogs also need a break. During DaySchool, we incorporate a rest period, where your pup can spend time alone to decompress and enjoy a Kong or a long-lasting chewy (you can supply your own or purchase one from us as you enroll). Chewing helps to promote relaxation, stress release while providing mental engagement for your dog.
SERENE ENVIRONMENT: To minimize reactivity and ensure a calm environment, we have implemented strategic measures such as blocked sight-lines between dogs to reduce reactivity and create a serene space for your dog to thrive. Soothing music is played in our facility during the day.
ACTIVE WALKS: Our training staff may also take your dog on invigorating walks, allowing them to explore, see the sights and stay active.
PLAYTIME WITH FRIENDS: We offer both indoor and outdoor playtime. During DaySchool, your dog will have ample space to stretch their legs, engage in playful interactions, and enjoy the fresh air.

Which means, we understand that this is a big step. To kickstart this incredible training journey, we have set up "Freshman Orientation" to make your dog's first day at DaySchool a seamless and enriching experience for both you and your beloved pup.
When you drop your dog off for it's first day of DaySchool, please allow a little extra time for a personalized 15-minute parent-teacher conference with one of our trainers. This dedicated time allows us to address any questions or concerns you may have, ensuring that you feel confident and well-informed about your dog's orientation day.
But wait, there's more! When you return to pick up your pup, we would like to extend another 15-minute conference to provide you with a comprehensive update on your dog's progress during Freshman orientation.
We believe in transparent communication, and these two conferences allow us to share valuable insights into your dog's first day. Rest assured, during this orientation, we prioritize your dog's comfort, well-being, and learning experiences.
During Freshman Orientation, our experienced team of trainers will conduct a play style compatibility test to ensure your dog is placed in the perfect playgroup of 6 dogs or less. Additionally, we assess your dogs current level of obedience and socialization so we can tailor our training plans accordingly.
At MuttSchool, we strive to create a strong partnership with doggy parents like you, fostering a sense of trust and collaboration. We are committed to providing exceptional care, guidance, and education for both you and your dog.
Join us in this exciting journey and let's lay the foundation for your dog's success together.
Freshman orientation is scheduled as a half day (5 hours or less) from drop off. Price includes the half day of day school plus two 15-minute parent teacher conferences scheduled before and after DaySchool .
Your dog will have a blast socializing with other dogs, practicing manners and just staying active! Don't miss out on this dog-gone great deal! Sign up today and let your dog come chill with us this summer.
With our 1/2 day training program, you drop your dog off at Day School for 5 hours or less. MuttSchool instructors follow your dog's individualized training plan and do the training for you!
