About BlueDog

BlueDog is here to provide your dog with care, companionship, and training throughout their lifetime. Husband and wife team Chris and Kim own and operate BlueDog together. They share a love for dogs, so opening a dog walking & training company came very naturally to them. BlueDog offers dog walking services as well as group classes and private in-home training for dogs of all ages.

I have been meaning to write a review for quite some time now, and when I realized today was small business appreciation day, I thought this was a perfect time to leave one! Simply put, BlueDog is amazing! We have taken multiple classes with the BlueDog team over the past several years for our 2 Goldendoodles. One of the best features was their membership pricing. It allowed us to go whenever we had an opening in our schedule. Tuesday and Thursday one week, Saturday and Sunday the next. Or even 5 days in a week if we could squeeze it in! We began attending BlueDog when our dogs were just puppies and we were completely clueless on how to train them. Through a really fun "school style" lay-out, we were amazed at our dog's progression (and our progression, too!). The positive reinforcement training that we received from all of BlueDog's amazing staff helped prepare our dogs for passing the CGC test. Our training didn't end there, though! BlueDog offered other programs that we signed our dogs up for, such as a Therapy program and a CGC Advanced preparation class (which we passed!). We are now taking new advanced classes that involve nose work and rally activities, that both us and our pups thoroughly enjoy. Why BlueDog? The staff is amazing, the training is in a fun rewarding manner that our dogs love, and the hard work really does pay off. We constantly receive comments from strangers about how well trained our dogs are when we are out in public. It makes us feel so proud! When they ask how they can get their dogs to behave like ours in public, we always tell them about BlueDog and say we were just like them before :-) Thank you, BlueDog! We would never have come so far without what we learned from you!
