Dog Daycare
Whether you have to leave your dog with us for half a day or need a more long-term daycare solution, Ugly Dog has you covered at our state-of-the-art facility.
Why Choose Us?
Our Facility
Built on 20 acres of property, Ugly Dog Daycare & Training is one of Michigan’s largest. Featuring on site training, fenced-in play areas, and other top-notch amenities.
Our Programs
We’ll make sure your dogs will have plenty of time to play and socialize during their stay with us. Plus, if you’re using our boarding service, we can also train your dog if you wish.
Our Training
The Ugly Dog approach is to train dogs to respect us and help you become a more confident owner with a dependable dog. In fact, we like to say we train both ends of the leash: you and your dog.
Our Experience
We’re a family-owned and operated business with decades of experience training dogs from Michigan and all over the United States.
Our Acceptance
We’re happy to accept dogs that have not been spayed or neutered! Just make sure they’ve had their vaccinations for rabies, distemper, and Bordetella.
Our Suites
Though your dogs won’t spend much time in their suites, they’ll be comfortable, happy, and healthy—all of our suites are designed to control contamination.

What is an "Ugly Dog?"
When most people think of an “ugly dog,” they probably don’t have breeds like German wirehaired pointers, Pudelpointers, wirehaired pointing griffons, and other bearded hunting dogs in mind. They aren’t likely to win an “ugliest dog” content anytime soon. But the term “ugly dog” is actually an affectionate nickname for these hunting dogs—and our own name, Ugly Dog Daycare & Training, is a tribute to the breeds our family has spent decades training for hunting, competitions, and more.
