WiggleButts

WiggleButts is a dog daycare and training center in Camden, Delaware, that also offers private in-home dog boarding in nearby Milford. The day camp is capped at six dogs, so the ratio of dogs to trainers stays low and the day stays structured rather than free-for-all.

What owners can book

• Structured day camp with a maximum of six dogs per day
• Small, carefully selected playgroups for dogs who enjoy other dogs
• Quiet kennel breaks during downtime
• Puppy and Level 1 group skills classes
• Private structured in-home boarding in Milford

What makes it different

Most of the day revolves around training, not just supervision. Dogs move between structured activity, short social sessions in small groups, and rest in a quiet kennel space. Indoor play means weather doesn't dictate the schedule. The staff includes evaluators for the AKC STAR Puppy and Canine Good Citizen programs. That background shows up in the emphasis on calm behavior and manners rather than simply wearing dogs out.

The boarding option sits apart from the day camp. It happens in a home in Milford instead of a commercial kennel run, which suits dogs that struggle with the noise and pace of a traditional boarding floor.

Practical details

The facility is at 23 Cochran Lane, Building 1 Unit 1, Camden, DE 19934. Booking is handled online through the WiggleButts website, and owners can also reach the team by email at wigglebuttsde@gmail.com or through Facebook and Instagram. Up-to-date vaccinations are required for every dog. In-home boarding runs $50 to $60 per night based on the pricing published on the kennel's own site. Anyone weighing daycare against boarding should ask which program fits their dog, since the two run very differently.
