Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How much would it be to train to be a service dog?
Like Eric said we would need to evaluate the dog prior to going over pricing. Every owner’s needs are different and can vary the program requirements.
Community answer · Camp Mutt Dog Training & Boarding · 2019-09-21
Prices vary depending on tasks you need the service dog to be able to do. Dog needs to be checked for proper temperament to see if he/ she qualifies.

How much would it be to train to be a service dog?
Best to call them since there are specific requirements for service animals. And, to get pricing too.

What are the prices for 4 day boarding for 2 Pitts?
Hello Michael, Boarding prices are $38 per day ($35 if you are military or first responder). If they cannot go out into group play during the day there is an additional $4 fee per dog per day. If they can go in the same kennel there is a 25% discount for the second dog. All of our prices are on the website if you would like to look. Feel free to contact us if you have anymore questions.

Do the puppies have to be registered to get trained??
The dogs need their shots but it’s only to protect them and the other dogs that go in for training.

They did a great job for our boy Oso! All of the trainers are great!
Very professional.
We have been taken out daughter's dog Duke here for multiple trainings as well as boardings. We are always very satisfied with the service we receive and Duke loves it here! you can tell they treat the dogs well, because he is always excited to go and play when he is there. Overall an amazing establishment for the animals and good service with humans.
Visiting family and got to meet one of your alumni, Luna. So impressed with how well behaved this young big girl is especially with her breed being so high energy!
