Train While You Work — Results You Can Trust

Looking for a fast-track to a well-behaved dog without sacrificing your daily schedule? Our Willow Creek Day Training Program is the perfect solution. Drop your dog off in the morning and pick them up in the evening—calmer, more focused, and better trained each day. No refunds for unused days. 

We also offer optional e-collar training for advanced obedience and off-leash reliability.

What is Day Training?

Day Training is our Monday–Thursday drop-off program where your dog receives personalized, professional training throughout the day. In between sessions, your dog will enjoy enrichment, structured social time, and rest to help learning stick.

We do the heavy lifting while keeping YOU in the loop every step of the way.
