Dog Training
Obedience dog training at Jagger's Doggie Daycare emphasizes positive reinforcement. We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with All American K9 Academy to provide ongoing dog training at our facility. This high-quality instruction and learning is led by James Staats, an AKC certified trainer, who has many years of experience with Service dogs, and also owns a Service dog himself. James is retired from the U.S. Army, and has an incredible story to share with our customers, as you can read his comments below.
As a retired U.S. Army Scout serving in Bosnia, Macedonia, Iraq and Afghanistan I am combat veteran and Purple Heart Recipient who has seen first-hand the power and capabilities of dogs, said Staats. I have witnessed their strength in a combat environment to the care and security they provide to veterans and first responders who have difficulties in their every day lives. I am one of you, and I have made it my mission to provide the same help I have received through the power of service dogs.
In addition to the All American K9 Academy, Staats has a non-profit organization known as Warrior Dogs, which is geared specifically to Veterans and First-Responders who are in need of a Service dog. His knowledge and passion for dogs will be an asset to many people in our area.
James will be offering group classes as well as 1-on-1 classes, depending upon the dog and the situation. Emphasis of training will range from dog psychology, manners, energy control, socialization, proper handling skills, loose leash walking, distance, distraction, duration, AKC Canine Good Citizen Prep and Testing. Specific issues can be addressed directly including fear, anxiety, jumping, leash pulling, aggression, prepping for a new baby/child and so much more.

Please Note:
Written Proof of updated shots & vaccinations required from your Veterinarian. This includes Rabies, DHLPP (Distemper) and Bordetella (Kennel Cough). Each dog will also be inspected for "fleas" and cannot be admitted to any of the daycare services or training if they have fleas. As an optional cost, we offer a very good "all-natural" flea & tick shampoo in our Self-Serve Dog Wash area that can eliminate any concerns about fleas. These policies are to protect the health of the dogs as well as the owners, trainer, and staff.
