Welcome to Dog Training at Pampered Pets Inn, a professional dog training facility in Mooresville, NC, offering personalized, positive reinforcement-based training in a luxurious resort-style environment. Their programs combine one-on-one training sessions with daily group play, rest breaks, swimming, and socialization to create a fun, stress-free learning experience for dogs of all ages and backgrounds. They specialize in board and train (Lodge & Learn) and day training (Play & Learn) programs, helping dogs learn obedience, leash manners, recall, and social skills while owners work or play. Their team, led by Megan Staub, a CPDT-KA® and Fear Free® certified trainer and registered veterinary technician, uses only humane, science-backed methods with no e-collars or aversive tools. They emphasize owner education through transfer sessions and daily updates, ensuring families can reinforce training at home. The facility also offers pet boarding, daycare, grooming, and a retail store, making it a full-service pet destination.

Their unique advantage is the integration of training with play and rest in a safe, supervised environment, ensuring dogs are happy, well-socialized, and motivated learners. They tailor each program to the dog’s personality, energy level, and owner goals, with curated play groups and multiple trainers working with each dog to prevent dependency on a single handler. They do not handle serious behavioral issues or potty training but focus on obedience, socialization, and common issues like jumping, bolting, and play biting.
