Training in Chicago

Chicago is a big city with big-city dogs. From downtown high-rises to neighborhood two-flats, every block has dogs in it.

Your city dog sees more in a day than most suburb dogs see in a week. Calm leash manners and a solid recall keep you both safe.

What boarding & daycare is

Boarding is overnight. Daycare is by the hour or day. Both happen at our Franklin Park facility, with Pet CPR and First Aid certified handlers.

Vacations, work trips, long workdays. You need someone you trust with your dog. Trust is built on safety and structure, not just play.

What you get
