Applause Your Paws

Professional Dog & Puppy Training in Miami, Florida. Our mission is to help dog owners improve their quality of life through enjoyable, connected relationships with their canine companions by providing engaging, positive education and humane, non-intimidating training so that in any environment they can have the well-behaved dog they always wanted.

Because we started out as a training company in 2006 we take the behavior of dogs on our property very seriously! This makes for a safer and more enjoyable experience for your canine companion while he’s staying with us.

Our professional, certified dog trainers assess each dog coming into boarding on their first day to ensure playmates are matched appropriately and that each dog has a safe and fun-filled play experience while in boarding. Unlike other facilities we have the experience level to cater to shy dogs, difficult dogs and the over-the-top playful dogs. It’s not uncommon to see 30+ dogs at other facilities with only one play park attendant (human) supervising. That’s crazy! Like, that’s actually insane…unless you like having dog fights.

We’re very proud of the fact that we have never had a full-on dog fight here at AYP. We attribute that to the fact that we keep our play groups small and require two play park attendants (humans) interact with and supervise the dogs at all times. Because our animal care staff are CPAC certified and our trainers are CPDT certified they are experts in canine body language and behavior. Having expert eyes on your dog during a boarding stay prevents accidents from happening. 

Our doggie daycare is offered to all dog-social dogs and puppies may start daycare as early as 10 weeks of age. We have three climate controlled doggie play parks and each playgroup is monitored by at least two of our canine care technicians to ensure safe interactions between canine friends.

WE offer four types of dog training including:  private lessons, group training, boarding + training, and daycare + training.
