Agility for Fun

Give your pup a confidence boost and a chance to burn extra energy with our low-pressure, high-fun agility session! For 20 minutes, your dog will enjoy one-on-one time with a dog trainer as they explore tunnels, jumps, weave poles, and other beginner-friendly obstacles.
Leash Manners

Help your dog build better leash habits with a focused enrichment walk through the charming 4th & Gill neighborhood. A trained staff member will reinforce polite walking skills while giving your pup a chance to explore and decompress outside of the daycare environment.
Scent Training

Our trainer will guide your pup through a fun and focused scent work activity designed to build confidence, improve focus, and burn mental energy. Using scent games like container searches or hidden food finds, we help your dog engage their brain in a rewarding way.

In this one-on-one session with one of our professional trainers, we'll focus on foundational obedience skills like sit, down, stay, recall, and polite leash walking.

Dogs boarded at The Bark get a private suite all to themselves or to share with their other house dogs. Rooms have a bed for each dog and other elements to make the room feel like home. Classical music is played through the rooms to maintain a peaceful environment.
The Bark is not a kennel environment. It is very important to us to maintain a calming environment for all dogs that board with us. The rooms are set up with a bed and other furniture to make it feel like a home.
