The staff at Alpha Dog are naturally dog lovers.  They are committed to the safety and welfare of your pet during their time at Alpha Dog.  They all have behavior training.  They understand the different body language, facial expressions, dynamics of the pack. If they haven't been trained before hand Alpha Dog provides for training in first aid and CPR.  We bounce ideas off each other and relate our experiences in order to pass along any knowledge gained that can be of value to everyone who works here.

Our commitment is that at the end of the day your pooch is happy, tired, healthy and ready for another day at Alpha Dog.
