Day Camp is open only to dogs who have graduated from one of our training programs. Your dog spends the day playing with other graduates and working through short training sessions, so the skills they learned keep getting used in real life.
Every dog in the group has been through our training. That means your dog practices their manners around other dogs who know the same rules, which is hard to find at a regular dog park.
Who can join
Day Camp is for graduates of any of our training programs. For the safety of the group, we don’t accept unneutered or unspayed dogs. Dogs who come regularly settle in faster with a familiar group, so if you plan to use Day Camp often, we suggest at least one day a week.
Scheduling
Day Camp is by appointment only. We set drop-off and pick-up times with you when you book.
Day Training
If your dog hasn’t trained with us yet, Day Training is a good place to start, and it is open to any dog. We start the training for you during the day, then work with you so the new skills carry over at home. Once your dog finishes, Day Camp is open to them too.
Boarding for graduates
Graduates can also board with us when you travel. Read more on our Boarding for Our Training Graduates page.

Structured Graduate Day Camp vs. Public Drop-In Doggy Daycare
Why do we limit Graduate Boarding and Day Camp for Graduates exclusively to dogs trained by The Mannered Mutt? Traditional commercial kennels and open public daycares mix dozens of untrained dogs in high-arousal pens, which rapidly undoes loose-leash walking, crate calmness, and polite greetings. By welcoming only our own graduates into Paulina Beck's home environment in Conroe, TX 77303, every stay reinforces the exact cues your dog already knows.
- Appointment Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours: Monday through Friday 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM; Saturday 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM; Sunday 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM (closed on major holidays for arrivals and departures).
- Daily Structure: Supervised outdoor play and socialization, structured place-cot rest, leash walking refreshers, and calm crate sleep inside a climate-controlled home setting.
- Health & Vaccines: Dogs must be current on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, and Bordetella vaccinations, on flea/tick prevention, and spayed or neutered for group Day Camp play.
Day Camp for Graduates Frequently Asked Questions
Can I board my dog at The Mannered Mutt if they have not trained with you yet?
Graduate Boarding and Day Camp for Graduates are reserved exclusively for dogs that have completed a Mannered Mutt training program. However, many new clients enroll their dog in our 3-Week Puppy Manners Board and Train ($1,800) or an Adult Board and Train immersion stay during their upcoming trip, which graduates the dog and unlocks alumni boarding for all future travel.
What are your drop-off and pick-up hours in Conroe, TX 77303?
Drop-off and pick-up are scheduled by appointment during our operating windows: Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and Sunday from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. We are closed for drop-offs and pick-ups on major holidays.
How is Graduate Boarding different from a traditional boarding kennel?
Instead of sitting in a concrete run or practicing bad habits in a chaotic playgroup, your dog stays in Paulina Beck's home environment in Conroe, TX 77303 where trainers actively practice sit, down, place, heel, and calm threshold manners throughout the day.
