Dog Day Care

Dog Day Care in Westbury, NY

Hope Garlick, owner of Little Paws of Hope trains dogs by using positive and reward-based training methods. We have noticed that smaller dogs tend to fade into the background at traditional dog boarding and dog day care facilities. We specialize in making each pet feel safe, comfortable, and content in a space that is designed specifically for their needs. If you are looking for a facility to keep an eye on your furry friend for a while, contact our team at Little Paws of Hope today.

Pawsitive Training

Nearly all dogs enjoy digging, herding, chewing, fetching, and chasing. The breed standards for small dogs mean these behaviors do not indicate willfulness or disobedience. Instead, these behaviors signal that the dog's natural disposition and breeding will factor heavily into how they act.

To offset their natural dispositions, Hope has implemented positive, reward-based training, redirection, and extinguishment with dogs while ignoring undesirable behavior and reinforcing better behavior. We have broken our training methods into smaller steps, allowing tiny charges to warm up to us and gain the pet’s trust before encouraging them to continue.

Dog Grooming for Canines

From using a two-handed lift, with one hand and arm under the dog's chest while securely supporting its hindquarters with the other arm, to pausing for cues from your canine companion that it approves of being handled, our staff is well-trained in handling dogs. Hope Garlick and our staff at Little Paws of Hope will make certain your pet enjoys every part in its spa session, from bathing to blow-drying to painting your pet’s nails and providing a kerchief or ribbon in its fur. Our staff uses restraints that are sized correctly for small-breed dogs, ensuring that they do not become entangled during the grooming process.
