We LOVE helping New York City dogs and owners co-exist together, peacefully and happily, in our challenging urban environment. Our trainers and behavior consultants are certified and veterinarian-recommended, and welcome all breeds, ages, and behavior issues.
We are OPEN to serve our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. Some of our service offerings have been altered to adhere to public health recommendations.
Your dog is one-of-a-kind; their training program should be too! At Instinct East Harlem, your training program includes a customized curriculum especially tailored to meet your training goals and your dog’s unique behavioral needs. Check out our options below:
We offer New York City’s only positive reinforcement Board & Train camps for New York City dogs. For basic manners or serious behavior issues, our one-of-a-kind sleepaway camps help you achieve lasting results.
Forget about Doggy Day Care; Instinct Day School programs at East Harlem are overseen by our certified training team, and each School Day includes a thoughtfully structured mix of training, play, enrichment and rest. We have Public School programs for dog-social dogs, and Private School programs for dogs who need individual time only.
Safe, low-stress boarding for dogs with special behavior needs including fear, anxiety, and aggression issues; and for dogs without behavior issues whose owners feel most comfortable having their dog board under the supervision of certified behavior professionals. Includes 24-hr on-site supervision, lots of walks and playtime.
