You can book appointments by sending a request through your Pet Exec log in, in person at the front desk, or by calling our office at (781)944-2929 How many K9 Camp visits should I book? We suggest 6 to 8 visits be booked initially, and will adjust their schedule accordingly based on trainer recommendation, as every dog learns differently. What is the difference between K9 Camp and Daycare? K9 Camp is a training day for your dog, to work on obedience or requested issues. Daycare is all day (or half day!) play group for your dog to socialize with other dogs in a managed setting. Does my dog go into the Daycare? If you have asked us to work on daycare socialization, or have indicated during your evaluation that your goal is daycare for your dog, then yes. How do I know how my dog is Doing? At the end of each K9 Camp Day, when you pick up, your trainer will speak to you in person about how your dog is progressing, or if they are on the early shift, they will leave you a written report card. When do I learn what my dog knows? When your trainer evaluates your dog as ready (generally after approximately 5 visits, but please remember that all dogs, like humans, learn at different rates) we will let you know that they are ready for a private 1 on 1 training session, and help you book that appointment. During that appointment, your trainer will show you everything the dog has learned, and how to reinforce that at home. My dog seemed exhausted/ very thirsty, etc, Is this normal? Yes! Learning and being mentally stimulated is tiring and thirsty work! The dogs have access to fresh water all day while they are here. What is an IKP? An IKP is our In Kennel Program, a 3 to 5 week training program where your dog stays with us in our kennels (or at one of our trainer’s homes), focusing on obedience training, Behavior Modification (for dogs with extreme issues) or even protection training. Can I visit my dog during an IKP, or bring them home on weekends? No, we don’t recommend that, as it can confuse the dog (they don’t understand why you’re leaving without them) and it can seriously disrupt their training. How does my dog become a Daycare Pack Member? In order to join our daycare pack, your dog must take part in our K9 Camp for Daycare socialization training. But my dog already attends a daycare elsewhere / goes to dog parks. Every daycare pack is made up of different dogs, so they would need to learn our packs socialization. Dogs that may do well in a dog park setting with 5 or even 10 other dogs, may feel differently in an indoor daycare pack made up of more dogs. Do you have daycare on weekends? No, we are not open for daycare on weekends, or major Holidays. Does my dog need to bring food? If your dog is a puppy under one year of age, or has special dietary needs (raw fed, etc), then please bring their lunch in a disposable container or bag marked with their name (refrigeration is available). Most adult dogs eat twice daily and do not need a daycare lunch. Why is my dog so thirsty when he comes home? Playing all day is thirsty work, and the dogs all have access to fresh water, but may want to drink more when they get home. How are the Daycare groups determined? Our professionally trained staff works with each dog that comes into the pack, and the dogs are grouped by temperament and age. How many dogs are in daycare? We average approximately 50 total dogs in daycare per day. Does my dog have to be neutered or spayed? No, we do not require dogs to be neutered or spayed. However, females in a heat cycle may not attend training, daycare or boarding, and must be bathed/groomed before returning to the facility once their heat cycle is over.
