we believe every dog deserves the right chance — not just a second one. Our rescue focuses on behavioral rehabilitation, structured training, and lifelong support to help dogs truly succeed in their new homes.

Many of our dogs come from difficult backgrounds or have been overlooked due to behavioral challenges. We work patiently with each dog, providing training, structure, and care so they can grow into confident, loving companions.

At Xylose Dog Rescue & Training, our daycare and boarding services provide a safe, fun, and structured environment where dogs can play, relax, and feel at home while you’re away.

Unlike many facilities, our care is guided by real canine behavior knowledge and professional training experience. Dogs are thoughtfully grouped based on temperament and play style to ensure safe socialization and a low-stress environment.

We welcome dogs of all sizes and breeds. As long as your dog is friendly with people, we can work with them. Dogs who may not enjoy group play can still have a great experience through 1-on-1 time with our trained staff and canine coaches, keeping them mentally stimulated, happy, and comfortable.

Our facility uses fear-free handling and care methods, helping dogs feel safe and relaxed during both daycare and boarding — something that sets us apart from many traditional daycare environments.

We focus on quality care, enrichment, and individual attention, so every dog feels comfortable and happy during their stay. Each dog also receives a daily report card so you can see how they played, rested, and enjoyed their day.

We use high-quality, safety-tested pet equipment and maintain a clean, sanitized environment to keep every dog healthy and comfortable.

During their stay, dogs can also enjoy healthy house-made treats and meals from our bakery and kitchen, made with high-quality proteins such as fish, venison, and bison. Unlike many commercial facilities that use highly processed treats, we focus on simple, nutritious ingredients that support canine health.

As a thank you to our community, clients who adopt from us, another rescue, or a shelter — or who complete our training programs — receive 20% off daycare and boarding services.

Best of all, a portion of the support from our daycare and boarding services helps rescue dogs in need, providing training, rehabilitation, and a second chance at finding their forever homes.

Exceptional care for your dog — and hope for another.

we specialize in helping dogs with aggression, reactivity, fear, and anxiety. Many dogs struggle because they have not been properly understood, and our goal is to help them learn how to feel safe and succeed.

Our Master Dog Behavior Trainer works closely with each dog to understand the root cause of the behavior and create a structured training plan tailored to their needs. Through patience, proper techniques, and behavior-based training, we help dogs build confidence, improve impulse control, and develop healthier responses.

We focus on safety, trust, and long-term behavior improvement so both dogs and their owners can live together with confidence and peace of mind.

Helping misunderstood dogs become successful companions.

your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. Our Fear-Free bathing approach focuses on creating a calm, positive experience so dogs feel safe instead of stressed during grooming.

We use gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and a patient pace to help each dog relax throughout the bath. Our team understands canine behavior and works with dogs of all temperaments, including those who may be nervous or sensitive during grooming.

By reducing stress and building trust, we help dogs have a clean, healthy coat and a positive grooming experienceevery time.

our support does not end when a dog is adopted. We believe education and guidance are key to building a strong, lasting bond between dogs and their families.

When you adopt one of our dogs, you receive free training support for life. We are always here to help with advice, training guidance, and behavioral support whenever you need it.

We also believe training should be accessible to everyone. For families who may need extra help, we offer low-cost training options to ensure dogs and their owners can succeed together.

Our goal is simple: support dogs and their families for life.

, we believe real change happens when people work together. Our rescue is built on strong relationships with adopters, fosters, trainers, veterinarians, and local businesses who all share the same goal — helping dogs live better lives.

We actively collaborate with our community to provide resources, education, and support for responsible dog ownership. By working together, we can rescue more dogs, provide better training, and create stronger, happier homes.

When you support Xylose Dog Rescue & Training, you’re not just helping a dog — you’re becoming part of a community dedicated to making a difference.

we understand how frightening it can be when a beloved pet goes missing. Our Search & Rescue (SAR) and Lost & Found Pet program is dedicated to helping families locate and safely recover their lost dogs.

Our team uses knowledge of canine behavior, tracking strategies, high-tech drones, humane traps, and coordinated Search & Rescue teams to help locate missing pets as quickly and safely as possible. We work closely with owners and the local community to organize search efforts, share information, and increase the chances of a safe reunion.

All of our lost pet assistance services are provided completely free of charge. Our goal is simple — to help bring pets safely back home to the families who love them.

Every situation is different, and we approach each case with patience, care, and determination.

Helping reunite lost pets with their families — at no cost to you.

we specialize in behavior-based rescue. Many dogs are surrendered or overlooked because of fear, anxiety, reactivity, or a lack of proper training. Instead of giving up on these dogs, we work to understand the root of their behavior and help them succeed.

Our team focuses on behavior assessment, structured training, and rehabilitation so each dog can build confidence, learn healthy behaviors, and prepare for life in a loving home.

We believe behavior challenges should not define a dog’s future. With patience, proper training, and the right support, many dogs can transform into stable, happy companions.

We don’t just rescue dogs — we help them become their best selves.

we are excited to introduce Dog Sport Training, launching in 2027. This program will help dogs stay active, confident, and mentally stimulated while strengthening the bond between dogs and their owners.

Our upcoming program will introduce dogs to a variety of sports such as agility, disc dog, flyball, nose work, and other performance activities. These activities help build focus, confidence, teamwork, and healthy physical exercise.

Whether your goal is to have fun, improve training skills, or compete in dog sports, our future programs will be designed to support dogs of all skill levels.

Build confidence. Strengthen the bond. Have fun together.

we believe every dog deserves to shine. Our dog photography captures each dog’s unique personality, helping them stand out and connect with potential adopters.

Professional, high-quality photos can make a huge difference in helping dogs find loving homes. By showcasing dogs in a natural and positive way, we help people see their true character — whether they are playful, silly, calm, or affectionate.

We also offer special photography sessions, including end-of-life memorial photos for beloved pets, photos for companionship dogs, doggy daycare and boarding facilities, and many other dog-related services and events.

Our goal is to celebrate the bond between dogs and the people who love them while creating beautiful memories that last a lifetime.

Every dog has a story — we help capture it.

At Xylose Dog Rescue & Training, our Dog Bakery creates fun and healthy treats for dogs made with quality ingredients and canine health in mind. Our goal is to help dogs live happier, healthier, and longer lives through better nutrition.

Our founder, Elazar, is currently studying canine nutrition so we can create treats that support a dog’s overall health, energy, and wellbeing.

Every recipe is made with love — because every dog deserves healthy food and a happy life. 🐾

50% of the bakery’s proceeds go directly to helping rescue dogs, supporting their care, training, and second chances.
