"Our dogs want to please us, and when we're able to understand what they need, our relationship with them will deepen and flourish." -Tom Moore, Owner
ABOUT US
Training Tails was born out of love between its founder, Tom, and his dog, Brandi. Tom realized that proper training and communication deepen the relationship between an owner and their dog. Training Tails provides a place for dogs of all sizes to run, play, and learn.
Our large doggy daycare allows your dog to run and play with friends under professional supervision. We have eight separate daycare areas based on size and play style; an outside pool; climate control for all seasons; and a dog daycare bus for pick-ups.
If your pet regularly gets into trouble or simply needs some brushing up on commands, we offer basic and advanced obedience training with options tailored to your needs - from one-hour private sessions, to full-day sessions, to our three-week board and train program.
Whether you're interested in daycare, training, or boarding, Training Tails is the place to be!

GETTING TO KNOW TOM
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT TRAINING TAILS
How did we get started?
Like many great things in life, Training Tails began with a passion. Tom realized his natural talent for canine training as he worked through basic and advanced training programs with his GSD, Brandi. He also found that through this consistent work together, their relationship deepened, and their bond became stronger. Training Tails was born out of this work with and love for Brandi.
The idea of Doggie Daycare came from the desire to expand a successful dog training business and to address a need in the area for a safe, loving place for dogs to go while their owners are away all day.
What makes our training style unique?
Patient, kind, and consistent are words used to describe the trainers and their training style.
What sets Training Tails trainers apart from others doing the same is their keen awareness of the dog and owner relationship. Trainers watch and listen carefully to assess the existing dynamics within that relationship and strive to understand the frustrations as well as the needs of both dog and owner.
