5 Day School Package
Program details
This one-week day school program is a great value combining daycare with an hour of training with your dog. Our certified dog trainers will be training your dog for an hour each day, which saves you the upfront work. At the point you are ready to begin working with your dog, our dog trainer will go over what the dog has learned and what you need to do to maintain or advance your dogs skills. Benefits: As much upfront work as you would like done is done by our professional dog trainers. This allows the dog to learn faster, and not be held up by any dog training learning curve. This makes training down the road easier on you, the dog owner. Since your dog is our daycare, your hourly training rate is discounted because of the time flexibility it allows Applause Your Paws to schedule these sessions. Your dog will be around the distraction of daycare and the activity at our canine training center, which gives them distractions to learn around. As an additional benefit, your dog will have had exercise and social interactions with other canines throughout the day. This also allows us to really get to know your dog, and know what areas that they need the most training. Included in the Day-Train Package: 1) 1 hour a day of training for your dog 2) a phone call follow-up from your dogs trainer 3) daycare with other canines for the rest of the day (play, socializing, and resting) 4) reinforcing what your dog has learned whenever appropriate throughout the day. · Listed price: [object Object]

The moment I spoke with Taryn at AYP, after speaking with several other doggy daycare’s and training, I knew this was the place for my rescue pup Khaleesi. My pup had a traumatic background, rescued her from Big Dog Ranch Rescue, and she needed quite a bit of socialization. I initially thought she needed training but reality is, Taryn walked me through it and said she doesn’t need training. She needs to learn it’s OK to be with other doggies. And she was 100% right! I 1000% recommend AYP.!!! Thank you AYP, i wish I could post 100 videos of how she is today 🫶

Dee and her crew are amazing! She helped me raise my Belgian malinois into the perfect little man he is today! Puppy classes with Alex were a huge help. We even went on to compete in Rally Obedience and placed all thanks to Dee, her passion and incredible skill set. Highly recommend Applause Your Paws to anyone who wants a well behaved pup!

Without a doubt my favorite training and boarding facility. The staff care so much for the dogs and Dee is always ensuring to do right by them. She trained little Lisa to carry an art brush.

I’ve known Dee for many years through dog rescue work, and she has always been one of the most dedicated animal advocates I’ve met. Long before Applause Your Paws Dog Training became so well known, she was volunteering with rescue dogs and helping dogs become more adoptable through patience, structure, and training. She later started Magic City K9 to expand on her rescue efforts and help address the overpopulation crisis at Miami-Dade Animal Services (MDAS), especially for larger breed and harder-to-place dogs. Every time I fostered or adopted a new rescue dog, especially larger adult dogs, I enrolled in her obedience classes and dog training programs. The difference it made was incredible. Rescue dogs often come with unknown backgrounds, anxiety, or behavioral issues, and Dee has a calm, knowledgeable approach that really builds confidence for both the dogs and their owners. Her facility is beautiful, professional, clean, and extremely well run. You can tell how much experience and care goes into everything she does. I’m also incredibly proud of the work she has done with rescue dogs, prison dog training programs, and the continued advocacy she brings to the animal rescue community. If you’re looking for a dog trainer in Miami for obedience training, puppy classes, rescue dog training, or behavioral work, I highly recommend Applause Your Paws Dog Training. Dee and her team are truly exceptional.

Your kind words about Dee’s dedication to rescue work and her ongoing commitment to animal welfare mean a great deal. It’s wonderful to hear that you’ve noticed a positive difference through our training programs, especially with rescue dogs who benefit from extra patience and understanding. We’re grateful for your support of both Applause Your Paws and the broader rescue community, and we appreciate your recognition of the work being done to help both dogs and their owners thrive.

Andrea Deniemeyer-Depero2026-05-28

5/5

The first time I brought my dogs, Brookie and Pepper, to Applause Your Paws, they were only 5 months old for their first 21-day training program. I was absolutely amazed by the results. They came back calmer, more focused, and knowing all the core commands perfectly. At 8 months old, we returned to have them trained as service dogs, and once again AYP exceeded every expectation. Training two large dogs together and walking them at the same time requires consistency and precision, and the trainers truly delivered. My dogs came back confident, well-behaved, and clearly understanding their new roles. Since then, we’ve continued attending their Saturday classes because I truly believe ongoing training is key to keeping both dogs and owners happy and successful. Every trainer we’ve worked with has been knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring. This past spring break, we enrolled them again for more advanced training, and I can honestly say I would not have the amazing service dogs I have today without AYP. What makes AYP stand out even more is how much they truly care about the dogs. They treat them like their own, and my pups are always excited to go back. They also communicate daily with videos and updates, which gave me so much confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. I especially appreciated that they listened to my request to train both dogs together since that’s how they work with me every day. They really tailor the training to each family’s needs. I cannot recommend Applause Your Paws enough. Every experience we’ve had with them has been exceptional, and all of the trainers we’ve worked with have been incredible.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for trusting us with Brookie and Pepper’s training journey. It’s wonderful to hear how well they’ve adapted to their roles and that you’ve noticed such positive changes. Your insights into the importance of ongoing training and the bond you’ve built with our team mean a lot to us. We’re grateful for your kind words about our trainers and the personalized approach you value. It’s a pleasure having you and your pups as part of the Applause Your Paws community.
