THE VISION

To redefine pet ownership using mindfulness, education, and community so that every dog can get the love, attention, and support it needs while enabling a relationship in which dogs and humans can learn from each other. THE MISSION

Using education and fun to help pet parents strengthen their bond with their dogs while creating a calmer and more peaceful home environment. Wag is an edu

cation center teaching dogs, their people, future Instructors, and Pro Groomers. We use only science-based methods of learning proven effective by leading veterinary behaviorists, ethologists, researchers, behaviorists, and well-respected trainers from around the world. The mentors we regularly learn from are leaders in our industry and are members of the associations we are proud members of. We teach you what the latest research has to offer with absolutely no force or electronic devices. Wag n Tails follows a humane hierarchy and we do not use force to teach. Wag n Tails proudly follows the LIMA approach. Least intrusive, minimally aversive. Our experienced consultants offer consults prior to your training plan in your home and instructors provide a variety of tailored group classes and seminars if you are local to us. For our nationwide followers, we provide remote learning and online courses allowing us to make a difference in the lives and homes of even more fellow dog lovers! Our main location is in Shelby Township, Michigan. We service both Oakland and Macomb Counties with our home services and our satellite training centers. We also help people nationwide with our online courses and virtual lessons. Check us out on the website to learn more or to schedule a free 15 minute strategy session with owner and founder, Christine!

We’re here for you! 🐾

Sundays are our quiet days at The Studio when our specialists come in just for those dogs who need that extra TLC. 💕

These days are perfect for our elderly guests, any dogs with disabilities or even young pups who need that extra time and care.

Frankie has one opening left this Sunday and Rebecca has two.

Our Story

At Wag ‘N’ Tails Dog Activity Center - education comes first at both of our locations in Shelby Township, Michigan. We appreciate that you are a parent to your dog. Our clients are pet parents - not dog owners. We know how much your dog means to you! That’s one of the reasons why education comes first for us.

As pet parents ourselves, we know that choosing a trustworthy care provider and/or a care facility is an important decision. We appreciate that price and location is certainly a consideration among many.

Contact us today! We look forward to explaining what is uniquely included in our standard service. We hope you agree there is much to consider when finding a caring place where your pet will be healthy and happy. Our highly skilled pack leaders on the phones are ready to take your call and help get you started with the best program for your needs. We are a school, not a “doggie daycare.” There’s a difference!

Education: Staff training and experience.
