DogJoy

DogJoy offers both single drop-in classes and multiple-week courses, covering everything from puppies to adolescent dogs, advanced skills, and off-leash training. They also have a Reactive Rover class for dogs that may not do well in a typical group setting. Classes are primarily held indoors in a climate-controlled training room, though some may move outdoors as needed.

Policies

DogJoy is unable to offer make-ups or discounts if a class is missed. If a client cancels or reschedules 7 or more days before the class start date, they will receive a full refund, minus a 3% administrative fee. There is a 50% cancellation fee for cancellations or reschedules made less than 7 days but more than 72 hours before the class start date. No refunds are provided within 72 hours of the class start date/time.

DogJoy is a training and enrichment center located on a beautiful ten-acre ranch in Pflugerville, Texas. Their priority is the safety and well-being of dogs, striving to create and reinforce stronger relationships between people and their pets. They believe in helping people build great relationships with their dogs through proven, positive reinforcement methods.

In addition to dog training, DogJoy offers boarding, their R.E.P.S. program (Reinforce, Enrichment, Play, Socialize), and a Splash & Play Park. They also carry raw dog food, premium toys, and other retail items. These additional services are available to their training clients and members.
