Additional Information
Scheduling
In order to secure your place on the schedule, you will pay a 20% down payment. You can send up to two dogs, but after that, you will be put next in line.
Zoe does not have the space for walk-ons unless another client has dropped out or unless she has immediate openings available.
Arrival
You will be able to drop off your dog between 10am and 12pm on the scheduled day. Please be ready to supply your dog’s food, a bowl, and a scoop. You will also need to bring a printed proof of shots and vaccinations.
Training
Happy Tails Board and Train plans are done at Zoe’s home to allow your dog to enjoy a very easy, less stressful training environment.
After training the basic cues, trainer Zoe will start exposing you pup to real-life situations around the farm, neighborhood, and park. Once exposed, they are then taught how to problem-solve on their own.
Returning Home
Pick-up should happen between 10am and 12pm on the scheduled day. When you arrive for pick-up, you’ll need to plan on being there between 30 to 90 minutes in order to learn about all that your pup has learned and how to maintain and advance their new behaviors, skills, and habits.
