PAWZ Enrichment Center

PAWZ Enrichment Center is a dog daycare, training, and grooming facility in Bismarck, ND, located at 2204 East Broadway Avenue. The day training program mixes one-on-one work, mental exercise, and social time with other dogs, so a day here is built around structure rather than plain supervision.

Training runs on positive reinforcement and a choice-based method, meaning staff mark and reward the behaviors they want to see. Classes are grouped by level, and dogs move up as they master each skill instead of following a fixed group schedule. That setup also gives dogs who have trained elsewhere a way to move ahead quickly.

Services

• Daycare with day training built in
• Basic manners and obedience classes
• Puppy Social for puppies 8 weeks to 6 months
• Advanced classes including Recall Games, Tricks, and Agility
• Grooming

Who it suits

Puppy owners can start early, since Puppy Social takes puppies from 8 weeks to 6 months and centers on play with other puppies at the same stage. Owners of adult dogs, rescues included, generally begin with basic manners and then choose from the advanced classes. Grooming is offered on site as well, which keeps training and coat care in one place.

Practical details

Weekday hours run 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Saturday is shorter at 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and Sunday is open only from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM, so weekend visits take some planning. Calls go to 701-751-0217 and email to pawzenrichment@yahoo.com. Class details are posted at pawzenrich.com, and the center also keeps an active Facebook page for updates.
