He now attends daycare twice weekly and even stays for boarding when his family travels.
"The daily WhatsApp updates kept us connected to Diego's journey. Seeing him transform from shy to confident was incredible! Now he loves his daycare days and we book grooming after every boarding stay."Â - Diego's Parents
Luna: From Chaos to Calm đ

â Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from regular dog training?
Traditional training uses artificial environments and brief sessions. We provide full-day immersion where dogs learn from dogs in real social situations, enhanced by AI monitoring. Plus, as a 24/7 facility, learning continues during daycare and boarding visits.
Can I combine training with other services?
Absolutely! Many parents book grooming for graduation day. Others enroll in daycare immediately after training. We offer package deals that combine services for better value.
Do you really operate 24/7?
Yes! We're fully staffed around the clock. Whether your dog needs emergency boarding, you work night shifts and need flexible daycare, or you want to pick up supplies from our pet shop during extended hours, we're here.
Will my shy dog be overwhelmed?
Never. Our program is individually paced. Shy dogs like Copper start with gentle one-on-one time before gradually meeting calm mentor dogs. We monitor stress levels constantly using YAPPI technology.
What if my dog is reactive?
Our ODIN specialized program is designed specifically for reactive dogs. We use distance protocols, barrier systems, and careful threshold management. Many reactive dogs benefit from extended boarding stays where we can work with them continuously.
How do I know what's happening each day?
You'll receive WhatsApp updates at 9:30 AM and 4:30 PM with photos, videos, and detailed progress reports. Our YAPPI system provides real-time dashboards you can access anytime. This applies to training, daycare, and boarding services.
What happens after the 5-day program?
Graduates often continue with regular daycare to maintain skills. We provide follow-up support and recommendations. Many families use our complete service ecosystem - daycare for socialization, grooming for maintenance, pet shop for supplies, and boarding when traveling.
Do you offer any guarantees?
Yes! We guarantee noticeable improvement in our training programs. If you're not satisfied with the progress, we'll continue working with your dog at no extra charge. Our other services come with satisfaction guarantees too.
