Covid-19 Update:
* TO COMPLY WITH SOCIAL DISTANCING *
When the weather prohibits us from being outside, we are having class inside. In the training room, we have tape on the floor to keep us 6 or more feet apart. When play dates are held inside, we require you to wear a mask and are limiting the amount of people who can come inside. If play dates are held inside, we are now allowing the first 13 dogs that arrive of those who have enrolled already to come in with 1 human per dog. We have 13 marked spaces in the training room to ensure that everyone is 6 or more feet apart. We do ask that you stay on your marked spot during the play dates for everyone's health and safety.
If your dog is not one of the first 13 admitted, your dog can go in but you can not.
When play dates are held inside, we are limiting the amount of dogs that can attend Petite and Puppy Play Date to 15 dogs. Rowdy Play Date will be limited to 8-10 dogs per trainer discretion.

Puppy Play Dates are a fun off-leash social hour for pups 8 months old and younger to burn off some energy and get that ESSENTIAL early socialization. Did you know that puppies need to learn how to "speak dog"? Well, this is a great opportunity to do that in a safe and supportive environment! A trainer will be available during the 45 minutes to answer questions and explain dog-to-dog interactions.
A note about puppy vaccines: Puppies are required to start their vaccine series and be determined healthy by a vet. The risk of developing behavior problems if not socialized early in life is much higher than the risk of getting parvo around other healthy and vaccinated pups. If you don't get your pup out around other dogs and people during the critical socialization period of their life (which ends at 16 weeks), you run a much higher risk of not getting the well-rounded dog you need.

Petite Play Dates are for small dogs of all ages, small is defined as about 25-30 pounds or less at adult size. Small-breed puppies, or young pups of any breed who are still a little shy around big dogs, are also encouraged to come to Petite Play Dates, as well as the occasional bigger dog who is really afraid or undersocialized (please ask for approval). Play time and interaction with other dogs is essential for dogs of all ages and sizes, and Petite Play Dates are the perfect opportunity for little dogs to play with someone their own size.
-Sundays at 11:30 AM
Rowdy Rover Play Dates are for dogs 8 months old and over who have tons of energy and need some serious romp time. Rowdy Rover Play Dates are guaranteed to exhaust your otherwise energetic dog after 45 minutes of fun with equally energetic play mates! Strictly for dogs who have no problems playing off leash with other dogs.
-Mondays at 5:30 PM
-Saturdays at 3:30 PM
Please enroll your dog ahead of time so we know who and how many are coming!

play space rental
M4MD offers indoor or outdoor play space rental! Many owners have energetic dogs who need to run and play, but they don't have a fenced-in yard. M4MD recognizes this, and we wish to accommodate as many of our clients' needs as possible, so we are now renting out our training/play room as well as our fenced-in outdoor space during our open hours. Play space rental is a great alternative to the unpredictability of public dog parks! It is also perfect for dogs who do not get along well with other dogs off-leash and just want to play with their humans. However, you may feel free to coordinate with family/friends and bring a group as well! It can be a great way to meet up with others if your dogs like to play together but you cannot all make it to the same play date, or if you just want to have a private play group.
