Service Description

Our Introduction Day is the perfect first step for dogs to join our boarding or pack walking & socialization services. Held at our tranquil farm above Kaukapakapa, this 3.5-hour session allows us to get to know your dog and assess their behavior, personality, and needs in a safe, controlled environment. During the Introduction Day, we carefully observe and interact with your dog to understand their strengths, weaknesses, and any areas where they may need additional support. This helps us tailor our services to ensure your dog thrives and gets the most out of their time with us. The day overlaps with one to two other dogs completing their introduction, giving us the opportunity to assess how your dog interacts with others and to determine if they are ready to join our group services or if more individual attention is needed. If we feel that a more customized approach is required for the safety and well-being of your dog or the other dogs, we may recommend our Iron It Out: Tailored Canine Confidence Building. We ask you to arrive 15 minutes before the conclusion of your dog's Introduction Day to discuss their progress and any recommendations moving forward. NOTE: This service is required before a dog can join our boarding, pack walking, or socialisation programs. We look forward to welcoming your dog and helping them succeed in our care!
