Doggie Daycare

Daycare Registration Form

Our doggie daycare engages, teaches and exposes your pet to many learning experiences. Older styles of daycare were to turn dogs our into a large yard and let them hang out. In our structured daycare program at All Dog Adventures dogs rotate between playing with staff, socializing in small groups of 5 or fewer and break time. We customize programs to meet the pup’s personality and age.
By offering a structured environment dogs are selected for each group based on their play style and temperament. They get the socialization and exercise they each need. The small groups keep your dog from getting lumped into a large group where they could be injured or overwhelmed. We want your dog to be willing and happy to come to daycare here. Our goal is for your pet to go home tired and happy from play and mental stimulation with our staff.
The dogs at All Dog Adventures are encouraged to keep the skills’ training and practice the behaviors they have learned to shape them into wonderful family members. Doggie daycare includes positive reinforement of positive habits.

About us

Our History

In 1996, All Dog Playskool opened in Richmond, VA in Huguenot Village in Richmond’s Southside as the first doggie daycare. Some of our first seminars were conducted by Gary Wilkes, Sue Sternberg, and Peter Wilkes from England to name a few.

In 1998, All Dog Playskool opened its second location on Thalbro Street in the Scott’s Addition / West End of Richmond. With the second location, All Dog Playskool added more group training classes with the first of many being the establishment of an unequivocal agility program. In addition, All Dog Playskool added boarding and self-serve dog wash.

With the expansion of All Dog Playskool’s training programs, the business relocated in 2009 to 4111 W. Clay Street, also in Scott’s Addition / West End, and expanded its name to All Dog Adventures to include the new philosophy of taking relationships to a higher level.

All Dog Adventures is the home of multiple Master Agility Champions (MACH’s), Agility Dog Champions (ADCH’s), and Trick Dog Champions (TDCH’s) as well as multiple titled dogs in Obedience and Rally Obedience in various venues, i.e. AKC, USDAA / WCRL, UKC, C-WAGS, etc. In addition, many of All Dog Adventures’ dogs have become Canine Good Citizens, Therapy Dogs, and actors in local commercials.

All Dog Adventures continues to grow by offering continued education seminars conducted by dog trainers considered to be at the top of their profession from all over the world and expanding class offerings to accommodate the evolution of dog sports and activities.
