A day filled with excitement and learning for your dog!
Hi there, we’re Good Dog Co.
We believe every dog is a good dog. That’s why we’ve put the utmost care into creating personalized enrichment programs that can be tailored to your dog’s individual needs.
All our staff, from the front desk to the trainers and groomers, are CPR certified and trained to provide a safe, well-balanced environment for our canine guests. We believe in a fear free and force free environment. We offer regulated pack friendly and solo comfort zones for our less socialized dog friends.

Our Services
Daycare & Montessori
Our canine guests engage in a variety of enrichment activities, including agility challenges, bubble play, gate manners and positive-reinforcement basic obedience training exercises. After your initial compatibility evaluation, we can help you pick a package that best suits your dog’s needs.
-
Under close supervision, dogs enjoy group play in their specially designated playrooms with their best friends and explore the great outdoors in our large, secure play yards. To ensure individualized attention and a harmonious environment, our packs are kept small, with no more than 15 dogs per handler.
-
Dynamic enrichment initiatives designed to provide engaging training and mental stimulation. Specializing in canine enrichment, we stand out as the sole facility offering enrichment-based dog boarding, daycare, grooming, and training services in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. Enrichment encourages natural behaviors in dogs, satisfying their physical and mental needs and, in turn, reducing stress by giving them control over their environment.
-
Individual enrichments are one-on-one activities with a Good Dog Co staff member included in Montessori and Solo Care Montessori and available as add-ons to Boarding services. Individual sessions may last for different durations depending on each dog's enjoyment of specific learning thresholds.
Play + Train
A combination of both daycare and training, our philosophy prioritizes understanding and addressing your dog's state of mind over simply teaching rehearsed behaviors.
-
Our Play and Train Program requires a standing reservation twice a week. The program accommodates a total of 12 levels. Progression is at your dog's individual pace and ability.
-
Stay connected with your dog's progress through:
Customized Report Cards featuring at-home practice instructions.
Video updates showing off your dog’s new skills. Access to our team via phone, text, or email to answer any questions.
-
This program is not suitable for dogs displaying aggression towards humans, dogs, or other animals, nor for those with extreme separation anxiety or fear.
