The Dogs Den Learning Centre for Dog Training and Doggy Daycare
       "The place where good dogs are made and great dogs are trained" 


The Dogs Den Learning Centre, All breed, Ottawa Dog Training and Doggy Daycare facility.   Teach your dog to be well behaved at home and in public.  We offer all levels of instruction from puppy through advanced training with the use of positive methods and techniques.  At the Dogs Den we will help you to develop a relationship with your dog based on love and trust, not fear.   

Who gets a dog to have a badly behaved one with bad manners?  With all the new laws regarding dog behaviour in public( not just Pit Bulls) it is just not worth taking the chance of losing your beloved pooch because of bad behaviours that could have been prevented through good training and socializing.
The most common reasons why people give up their dogs are due to bad manners like barking, resource guarding, destructive chewing, jumping up and housebreaking as well as more severe behaviours such as aggression towards other dogs, children and adults. Many of these behaviours can be corrected or prevented through good training and development of proper social skills.

At the Dogs Den Learning Center, we offer obedience dog training where the whole family can attend.  It is not realistic to have only one handler when there are other people in the household that the dog must listen to.  We recommend that everyone that is involved in the training of your dog attend classes if possible.   Consistancy will be very important to your training.  
All of our courses are filled with clear instruction, demos, obedience exercises and social exercises to aid in your success.  You will learn about dog behaviour to better understand why your dog does the things he/she does and to know what to do to correct the bad behaviours and reinforce the good. 

We offer specialized training for dogs dealing with social and aggression issues.   All of our training uses positive reinforcement techniques and methods.  Our belief is that you don't need to use aversive methods to train a dog or to correct bad behaviours.  

The Dogs Den offers Doggy Daycare, monday to friday from 6:00am til 6pm.  A great place for your dog to spend their day.  They will play with other dogs in our large indoor space, take group walks in the area, and even do a little training.

We are located at 21 Capital Drive in Ottawa.  (Capital Drive is one street to the south of Slack Rd , off Merivale Road, South of Hunt Club)

Doggy Daycare Program

Doggy Daycare is the place where dogs can play, socialize, learn and have fun.
Daycare is great for any dog but is especially useful if you don't want them to stay at home alone while you work or for dogs who are being destructive at home, bothering the neighbours with barking, don't get enough daily socializing or exercise, need constant supervision like young puppies or are dealing with separation anxiety.
We are a kennel free daycare. We suppy beds, blankets, and open door crates for napping. Napping is important to reduce chance of injury.
Dogs are supervised at all times to ensure proper play.
The dogs at daycare enjoy socializing with each other, playing with toys and fetch among other fun and exciting activities..
We do not rotate play time. All dogs are out all the time. Our space is large enough for fetch and other running games.
