Extended Stay Training
Your dog comes to our facility for a minimum of 6 weeks to be trained on Basic Obedience
commands. The Basic Obedience Training includes voice commands of Sit, Stay, Down, Heel, Off
and Autosit. These commands are all taught while on a leash.
While not in training, your dog is able to play at our doggie resort (as long as it is dog friendly and
"fixed").
We can also work on specific behavioral issues such as chewing, nipping, mouthing, barking,
humping, jumping on counters, etc...
After training is complete, we bring the dog back to your home and train you on what it has
learned. Remember, all the training in the world does no good if it is not followed up by you!!
We ask that anyone who interacts with the dog on a daily basis be present at the return visit
(about 1-2 hours long). All fees associated with this type of training include boarding and food!
Plan your vacation around your dog's training and come home to a new and improved dog for
about what you'd pay just for boarding! Call us for details related to your specific needs at
1-866-326-1166.

Sunday 1pm-3pm (minus the Mini-Indy race weekend and any EXTREME weather days) and runs until our

Boarding Options:
Cageless Option:
We can provide a "Cageless Boarding" for your dog. Do you have a special situation that requires
this type of boarding? Call us and tell us about it. We may be able to help you.
Stay & Play Option:
The dogs at Sit Happens LOVE "Stay & Play!!" Dogs who are well socialized are able to run and
play in a supervised, cageless environment. This type of boarding is similar to our Doggie Daycare
except they spend the night. Stay & Play dogs have the opportunity to exercise all day long and
are kenneled to sleep at night. There is even a beautiful in ground pool for summer-time fun when
the weather cooperates but if your dogs doesn't like water, no worries. We monitor the heat and
if it is simply too hot outside we bring them into the air conditioning for brief cool down periods
during the day. Socialization is the key to raising a happy dog! Interaction with staff and other
dogs will benefit your dog tremendously!!
*All dogs must be evaluated upon arrival to ensure they "play well on the playground" with the
others. Dogs must be neutered / spayed if over six months old to be eligible for "Stay & Play."
Kennel Boarding:
This option is perfect for older dogs, dogs who are not neutered/spayed or dogs
that are not well socialized. Our kennels are gigantic! They have plenty of room to walk around and
stretch out even if your dog is a GREAT DANE! We take the dogs outside individually several
times a day to get some fresh country air!
NOTE: Anyone wanting to drop or pick up at our facility must do it between 10am and 2pm to
allow all of our dogs as much run time as possible. They also must call ahead of time so we know
you are going to be there. There is a football field distance between the gate and the kennel...we
will never know you are there if you don't call ahead! Thanks!
Doggie Daycare:
This is an opportunity for your dog to get out and run! Come play with us during the day and be
home at night ready to snuggle with you. We have 5 acres of fenced in land for lots of playful fun!
We pick up Monday through Friday in Williamsport at 7am and drop off at 530pm (NO HOLIDAY
DAYCARE). Let your dog run and have fun instead of chewing up your couch! Call us for details.
