My 8 week old mini Aussie had hi first Free Puppy Socialization Hour at Central Bark Paradise Valley. Even though the dogs were only a couple weeks older, they were twice as big. So, they put us in area barred off from the other dogs playing so ne could watch and sniff. Ellie, a dog trainer, came in there with us and shared so much information about raising him to be social.
When we went there, I was very nervous. Now, I can’t wait to go back next week. They were so accommodating, informative, and kind.
Central Bark has been a life saver for our new puppy. Lucy loves seeing her puppy pals at daycare. The staff is professional, the facility is so clean and the prices are very manageable.
We’re thrilled to have found Central Bark for our dog Pluto. It’s been great having him socialize with the other dogs during daycare visits and we love having a safe place we can trust with boarding.
Very well thought out facility and Dan and his team are excellent. Thanks Central Bark PV!
My 2 dogs love coming to Central Bark! They have so much fun playing with their friends! I especially like that the dogs have both play and rest times scheduled during their day. Everyone is friendly and accommodating at Central Bark!
The timeline for learning new behaviors and skills is as unique as every dog! Because each dog is an individual, with different learning histories, breed genetics, and preferences in reinforcers like treats and toys, there is no way to say for sure how long training will take. It’s also important to consider how much time each family has for daily training practice.
