Leading the Way, established in 1992, is the area's premier doggie daycare, dog training and behavioral center. We are dedicated to enhancing the relationship of both ends of the leash, through knowledge, compassion and building long term relationships with our clients — two and four-legged! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​

​​​

​Our DayCare is focused on play and is customized to each unique dog's needs. We use the most recent research on ideal canine play and social environments. Using studies on canine enrichment, with mental and emotional well being our guide, we designed our play areas. This is all backed with over 25 years experience of canine behavioral consulting.
 

 

 

​
Our Behavioral Center We use the latest, scientifically based positive reinforcement methods in all of our training. At Leading the Way, our belief is that each student is a different learner and should have the chance to explore different methods, not a one-type-fits-all cookie cutter approach. We use treats, toys, clickers, and play...anything that will motivate your dog and you! We have more than 25 years of experience in training and canine behavior to combine in educating both dogs and their humans.

​

We create strong canine and human partnerships, built on trust, love, and respect that lasts a lifetime.
