About Us
Colorado Dog Academy – A Colorado Dog Training & Obedience School - Training The Dogs of Denver & Metro Colorado For Over 25 years.
Colorado Dog Academy is a family-owned and operated facility open since 1978. We pride ourselves on the happiness and well-being of your pets and realize that every pet requires, and deserves, individualized attention and specialized care.
We have an immaculate boarding kennel, professional grooming shop, experienced trainers to help you with obedience and problem behaviors, and a supplies shop featuring specialty food, toys and training tools at great prices.
At Colorado Dog Academy, we have individual-indoor runs so that the dogs may go in and out all day as they please, and are closed indoors at nighttime and during severe weather. The insides and outsides of the kennels are hosed out once per day and the waste is removed four times per day. The insides are heated in the winter and cooled by industrial sized circulating fans in the summer. The insides are cleaned with both an air and a floor disinfectant each morning.
Each dog is provided with an appropriate sized water receptacle that is filled each morning and throughout the day as needed. Each boarder receives a platform bed so that they are off the concrete, bedding is also provided. You may bring your pet a toy or comfort item that will make them feel more at home during their stay with us. At Colorado Dog Academy we feed Wellness pet foods. Wellness is an all-natural human-grade ingredients food with no wheat or corn.

Additional Information
We offer to our clients who are looking for a fun day with friends, those looking to bone up on training, and those who just need to get out of the house for the day. Unlike many daycares, your dog does not need to pass an interview to stay with us, but its temperament will delegate its daily activities. We offer walks for those that are not compatible with a play group. We have play groups for social dogs that are separated by size, age and temperament. This ensures that small and shy dogs are not playing with large and rambunctious dogs that may inadvertently harm them. When not at play, each dog receives an indoor- outdoor boarding kennel.
Colorado Dog Academy believes in the “Wolf Pack Theory”. All Dogs are ancestors of the wolf. All domestic dogs have a natural packing instinct. The family becomes the dog’s pack. We help you, the dog owner, understand how to communicate to your dog that you are the pack leader through training and daily interaction.
Dogs do not have an understanding of language. When you speak to an untrained dog, you are speaking in a foreign language. Training is necessary to open up lines of communication between you and your dog. Colorado Dog Academy uses the natural method of training, which means we motivate the dog to perform behaviors on their own actual abilities instead of using force. Your dog will learn more easily and enjoy training more by using this method.
