About Zoom Room Dog Training:
The Zoom Room's indoor dog training gym provides a safe, indoor space for dogs and puppies to receive socialization and training alongside their owners. Using only positive training methods, we help people deepen the bonds of communication with their pups through obedience, agility, and enrichment classes. We regularly give back to local rescues through direct donations and fundraiser events that we host ourselves, such as Doggy Disco nights (yes, we have a disco ball!). It's a wonderful environment for dog lovers - both our clients and our staff - with fair trade coffee, great music, and a beautifully strong community. Our motto is: "We don't train dogs.
