Playgroups

All playgroups are supervised by training staff to make sure play is appropriate.

We will also talk to you about body language, play styles, and when to take breaks. Depending on the group, we may incorporate some simple training exercises or play/relaxation breaks. All dogs must be up to date on vaccinations to join.
