What people have asked about this business.

How much does Is cost to train a Chihuahua?

I can't remember off the top of my head what the pricing was, I just remember it was the best price I could find after calling around. Give them a call or send them an email, they should get back to you pretty quickly.

Question on Google
has anyone came here for aggression issues for people and animals

Yes, he worked wonders for our dog. It is imperative to continue to do the work when you get the dog back so it does not revert. Lloyd is really, really good at what he does. I recommend calling and discussing your specific issue with him. He is very honest and has a ton of experience with military/police dogs and behavior modification. We couldn't take our dane anywhere without her acting like she was going to attack anyone who came near her, other dogs included. When we got her back after a week, she was a different dog. We have followed through with his instructions and she has gotten even better. We can take her anywhere and she loves playing with other dogs now.

Mr. Lloyd took the time to discuss my Lab puppy and where he was with his training. He explained his process and gave me a tour. We talked about length of time to train “Forest” and potentially what we would need to do to break his bad habits. Mr. Lloyd does an excellent job of explaining a dog’s behavior and their puppy mindset. When my wife and I picked up my dog he showed us what he’d learned. Then he instructed me on how to daily reinforce this training until it becomes second nature. I would recommend Mr. Lloyd to anyone who loves their pets like I do.

11 years ago I brought my Blue Heeler, Gracie, to Advanced Canine. Very personable, prepared, professional, kind, and respectful. All of those qualities are great in a trainer, but most importantly, he was effective! Sadly, Gracie passed away last month, but I can tell you this training was effective for the 11 years that Gracie was with us. Now, I have a new Blue Heeler puppy. Once she is at the proper age (12 weeks) she will be going to Advanced Canine. There's no one else I would trust with our family pet. I can't say enough good things. Truly. They are very knowledgeable and you absolutely cannot beat the price either. Other places will charge you twice as much to offer the same thing. While I can't comment on how effective the competitors are, I can tell you that Advanced Canine is extremely effective and will create an environment for your dog that will benefit you, your dog, and your family for life. Don't waste your time looking for anyone better. When I go back and read what I just wrote, it sounds like a commercial, but I cannot stress how true it really is. This is the only place you need to train your dog. It's effective, cost beneficial, life long, and as I said before, includes a knowledgeable, respectful, professional, honest, and prepared service. Thanks sir, for everything you've done and everything you'll be doing soon!!! Stanton

Mr Loyd is top notch! We took our boy Oakley a 14 week old labradoodle to get basic puppy training and he was doing all the things in 3 days! What I loved most about Mr Loyd is that you can truly tell he has a passion for what he does and it shows! I highly recommend advanced canine and have already sent a few friends his way!
