trick of the month
Trick Training
Add-on to your dog’s daycare or boarding reservation!
Give your dog the opportunity to hang with Beth (head trainer) or Sydney (daycare trainer) during a one-on-one trick training session with new tricks to learn each month. Trick objectives change on a monthly basis. Our goal is to have 3 to 5 unique trick commands that your dog can work towards throughout the month.

November 2024 Trick List
Trick Training Sessions
Drop your dog off for daycare as usual. Your dog will receive a one-on-one training period between 9am and 4pm. Each period lasts anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes but on average 25 minutes. The session time depends on your pups engagement and paw-gress with the training.
Each dog progresses with trick training at a different rate, so you will receive updates along the way with their progress after the session. We will also provide you with information on how to work with them at home to further their training! The more opportunity we all give your dog to work on their tricks, the sooner they will come to fruition, so we recommend adding training sessions onto multiple daycare reservations!
If your dog is a super stellar rock star scholar, they can learn many different tricks with Metro Dogs help! And that’s when you can show off their talents at your next dinner party!! Although showing off the tricks is the tangible value of Trick of the Month, we cannot express how much more your dog gets out of these sessions. Dogs that attend Trick of the Month go home extra snoozy, are more excited to attend daycare and have such strong bonds and connections with the staff they train with. Expect them to never want to leave Metro Dogs now!
Long-term benefits
Mental Stimulation
Dogs need more than just food and water. You know that! You give them a safe home, with a loving family; you let them engage socially with their doggy friends at daycare. But how do you address their cognitive needs? They can’t read books, they can’t play music, and they sure can’t play video games (if only they had thumbs!!)! Let Metro Dogs help you out; we’ll pair your pup up with a senior staff member for some one-on-one training time while at daycare!
See the difference
Not only will your pup be able to physically drain energy playing with their friends, but they’ll now be able to engage their brain to tire them out. A dog that learns new tricks is doing physical brain work! They’re creating new neural pathways and the positive reinforcement they receive helps drop that happy dopamine brain chemical, which makes them even more motivated and engaged!

Get Started
Want to add a Trick Training Session to your pup’s next daycare reservation? Simply log into your Gingr Portal account and click New Booking to get started. Then select Appointments; Grooming or Day Training and choose the Day Training category. Next, choose from a variety of Day Training sessions and lastly choose the date you would like for your pup’s session. Or you can fill out the online Tricks Form below.
Drop-Off & Daycare Training Sessions
Schedule a drop-off training session or add to your dog’s daycare reservation!
If you are looking to work on specific behaviors for your dog — you’re in the right spot! Day Training is a private dog training option available to Metro Dogs clients during daycare or as a drop off session!
Day Training is ideal for dogs that need to work on “naughty” behaviors like jumping on guests, pulling on the leash, and so forth! It’s also perfect for dogs to learn cooperative care skills like using the scratch board to file their nails, wearing a muzzle, or having their paws touched. And just wait- there’s more! Day Training can also give your dog confidence building through basic agility skills.
The best part about Day Training is that it provides you, the dog parent, with the ability to select what your dog needs to work on with one of our certified dog trainers. Our trainers, Bethany & Sydney, will be able to provide you with the support you need to continue the training outside of Metro Dogs.
