Dogs Playing for Life
What is the DPFL Canine Center?
At DPFL’s Canine Center Florida, each dog is provided extended time out of their kennels to engage in an individual training and behavior plan and interact with other dogs. These plans help set up each dog for success and allow them to learn through play!
Perks of Adopting from the DPFL Canine Center
When you adopt from the DPFL Canine Center, DPFL staff will meet with you and your new dog for a pre-adoption demonstration to show off all the skills your new family member has learned! Once your new pet is home, DPFL provides lifetime follow-up support if needed and will work with you to set your dog up for success at home.
