Dog Daycare & Boarding
Calgary dogs listen up!
Don’t tolerate dog daycare centers that park you in a cage all day! Chasin’ Tails’ canine customers enjoy all the same great facilities in our kennel as our boarding dogs do:
- Fully contained indoor playground with wading pool & jungle-gym for large/active dogs;
- Lounging areas with quiet entertainment for less active or smaller dogs; and most important,
- Constant supervision by dog caregivers trained to handle emergencies!
Dog Grooming
The Pet Groomers Calgary Dogs Beg For!
Here’s what dog-park socialites are drooling about: Pet grooming has been taken to a new level at Chasin’ Tails Zen Spa & Salon. The difference?
Trust.
Just as we humans entrust beauty salons with our hair, health, and even our confidences, we want our canine clients to fully relax and rejuvenate! So pet-parents in Calgary, bring your little darlings to the Zen Spa & Salon where you can rely 100% on the skill, expertise, and empathy of our gentle pet groomers!
Dog Training
Chasin’ Tails understands that every dog and owner has individual needs. Using the principle of Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive or LIMA, we work on reinforcing the bond with your dog in the most positive, humane way possible. The training plans often incorporate clicker training as a bridge using positive reinforcement because it is a highly efficient way to communicate what the owner wants the dog to do. Chasin’ Tails specializes in easily distracted, nervous, hyperactive and reactive dogs.
