Dog Days Farm offers at-home behavioral consults and private training services. They provide full-service training and behavioral assistance, catering to a range of needs from helping new puppy owners get off to a great start to addressing serious aggression cases.
Their expertise extends to newly adopted rescue dogs, assisting with transition issues to ensure a smoother adjustment. Their focus is on fostering a happier, more harmonious relationship between dogs and their owners.
Dog Days Farm specializes in herding dog breeds, offering herding lessons tailored for upright loose-eyed breeds. Their services include Board & Train programs at their farm, providing comprehensive training and development.
They are certified to serve Washington County, Warren, Albany, and Saratoga Counties in New York, as well as the entirety of southwestern Vermont (Bennington and Rutland Counties) for local consults. Additionally, they serve the entire Tri-State and New England area, offering Board & Train or Stay & Play programs at their home.
The Board & Train program involves the dog living in their home while learning essential 'life skills' and basic obedience. This immersive approach ensures that dogs develop the necessary house manners to become valued family members.
The Stay & Play program, on the other hand, offers dogs the opportunity to enjoy the comforts of farm life while their owners are away, providing ample off-leash exercise, playtime, and support in improving 'life skills'.
For dog owners seeking a reliable and caring environment for their furry friends, Dog Days Farm provides a wonderful vacation experience, allowing dogs to stay in the cozy farmhouse while their owners are away.
