Puppy Day Academy

Are you a hard working pet parent? You’re back to work after the Holidays and you have a rambunctious new puppy at home? No time to potty train her or teach her manners? We can help!

Our Puppy Day Academy is a combination of training with supervised play, perfect for puppies from 9 weeks to 5 months. Curriculum includes: Good manners and problem solving (play-biting, house training, crate training, impulse control, etc); basic behaviors (leash walking, sit, down, stay, come, leave it, and more) and real-life skills (socialization with dogs and people, body handling and grooming, food bowl exercises). Coaching for the pet parent is included so you can keep up with your talented pup!

Puppy Day Academy is 4 weeks, 5 days a week Monday – Friday, from 8am-5pm. Drop offs from 8-8:30am and pickups between 4-5 pm.

Skills are taught using gentle, effective positive reinforcement.

Designing and supervising the Academy is our head trainer, Penelope Milne.

It's All the Rage in the Pet World - And a Boon for Our Favorite Animals

The pet food industry has at long last accepted that raw pet food is here to stay.

Raw pet food sales are the proof, more than tripling from 2012 to 2016.

Pet food industry experts also agree that raw diets “may meet demands for pet foods with no preservatives, processing or extraneous ingredients.”

My first choice for optimal nutrition for dogs and cats is actually a homemade, nutritionally balanced raw diet; alternatively, you can purchase prepared frozen, freeze-dried or dehydrated raw diets.

The Animal Keeper Poway is currently offering a variety of healthy raw food selections.
Our Encinitas and Oceanside locations will be featuring raw food soon. Ask your location for details.
