Prices
Everything we charge for, on one page. Daycare costs a different amount at each of our four locations, so pick yours and the daycare numbers follow you down the page.
Before any of this
The first day is free. For everybody, on every path, every time — and we never take a card until the end of a successful first day.

So it costs nothing to find out.
Daycare
Two things are for sale: a punch card, or a monthly subscription. Under both sits a plain day rate for anyone who wants a day without buying either.
These are the only prices on the page that change with your location.
Monthly subscriptions
The same days every week, at the lowest rate we do. Suitable if daycare is part of the routine rather than a fix for a broken week — you pick the days, you can change them, and you can start on any day of the month.

Per-visit figures are worked out over a year and rounded to the nearest ten cents.
Punch cards
Visits bought up front and used whenever they suit you. Suitable if your weeks do not look alike — the clock starts at your first visit, not at the purchase.

The day rate
Pay as you go, nothing bought in advance. Suitable if you come now and then, or if you would rather see how it goes first.

Training
Training comes with every day of daycare and every boarding stay, at no extra cost: guiding play, setting gentle limits, building confidence, all day long. It’s what our staff are trained to do. For a dog who needs something extra, like extra tutoring alongside the class, these add-ons are there for members.
Training Walk
One-on-one on the sidewalk, done personally by the owner of Happy Dogs. We take on pulling, reactivity and eating things off the street, and you watch it work, so you can keep it going at home.
- Daycare and boarding members
- $8545 minutes
Extra Coaching
30 to 60 minutes of one-on-one work with one of our senior pack leaders during a daycare day, in one block or spread across it. It’s for what’s best learned among other dogs: nerves, pushiness, reading social cues.
- Daycare members
- $65per day, on top of the day’s daycare
Training Walk add-on
An add-on to Foundations: see our approach on the leash in your first two weeks, with the owner of Happy Dogs.
