“My puppy LOVES hounds town!! The second we walk through the door he sprints to the employees and then to the back door. My fiancé and I love how convenient it is and the fact that they send pictures and updates throughout the day. Our pup gets lots of energy out while he’s there which is also great. We will continue taking him to HT and would highly recommend it!”
The Hounds Town Hustle™: Setting the Standard in Dog Management
While it’s important to know safety protocols and have training for emergency situations, our staff training goes far beyond that. Our dog behavior expertise and approach to dog management not only ensures the safety and well-being of all our dogs, but is designed to fulfill their social, mental, and psychological needs.
The Hounds Town Hustle™: Setting the Standard in Dog Management
At Hounds Town, our approach to pack management goes far beyond standard pet care. We do not rely on gimmicks, humanized routines, or passive supervision. Instead, our entire system is powered by the HOUNDS TOWN HUSTLE™, our proprietary handling and movement methodology that translates instinctual pack psychology into daily practice.
Developed from the 40-year canine career of our Founder, former NYPD K-9 handler and Commanding Officer Michael S. Gould, the Hustle is a foundational standard that every team member is trained to execute. It defines how our handlers physically enter playrooms, direct momentum, communicate boundaries, and project calm, confident leadership inside the pack.
By teaching our team to read natural energy cues and move with the dogs rather than against them, the HOUNDS TOWN HUSTLE™ allows us to manage playgroups safely, defuse tension before it starts, and maintain a balanced environment where dogs can simply be dogs.
