Additional Classes Offered, Your Dog is your Workout Partner!

Thank Dog! Bootcamp created a program that allows dogs and owners to reach their goals together. The classes are designed to address the growing numbers of dog obesity, human obesity and dogs in shelters due to behavioral problems.

Taking place in Johnny Carson Park, 400 S.Bob Hope Dr.,Burbank, CA 91505 (North of the freeway, across from NBC Studios), the nation’s obedience and fitness bootcamp for dogs and their owners has added Tuesday/Thursday 9am and 6pm as well as Saturday 10am classes to the existing Monday through Friday classes, 6am and 730am!

Thank Dog! Bootcamp created a program that allows dogs and owners to reach their goals together. The classes are designed to address the growing numbers of dog obesity, human obesity and dogs in shelters due to behavioral problems. Jill Bowers, owner and operator of TDBC, suggests, “Dogs and humans both need exercise and dog training on a daily basis to live a healthy and stress free life together. The combination of fitness and a basic obedience regime allows for bonding, leadership and a healthy lifestyle.”

To start, new bootcampers must complete the mandatory 1-­‐on-­‐1 consultation and    obedience lesson. Each class combines weight training, cardio    training and dog training and is run by both a certified personal trainer and dog trainer.

Quoted from their website, "If you’re into fitness (or want to be), and you have a dog (trained or untrained), a tired dog is a good dog, a trained dog is an even better dog, so get your shoes on, grab a leash and come play with us!
