House trainingProgram details
Teaching a dog potty manners is not for the faint of heart. It can be frustrating, overwhelming, and messy to take on potty training your puppy (or your older dog). Fortunately, you don’t have to do it alone. We offer Potty Training services that give your dog the consistency and praise he needs to succeed.

Board and trainProgram details
By far our most popular training program, our Board and Train service gives us the opportunity to work directly with your dog for 12 days. During our time together, we give your dog the obedience skills (like leash manners and commands like Sit, Stay, Down, and Place) and practice he needs to be successful. We also take walks, play fetch, and rest. Your dog spends the days and nights with our Trainer, no cold or lonely kennels involved. You get lots of photo and text updates throughout your time apart, and when you return to pick up your best friend, you learn how to keep up the progress at home.
Day trainingProgram details
Private 1 hr lessons with owner and dog scheduled once a week. Our private day training program is 10 lessons where they will learn the basic obedience commands. These commands will also be taught to you to continue training and enforce consistency in between the scheduled lessons.

I was referred to Chicagoland Dog Training by my cousin, who could not say enough about her positive experience. Our Benny was a lot! That's putting it mildly. It's been 3 weeks since his graduation and although there's still a daily routine of training, he's over come so many milestones. We couldn't walk him, he was a wreck! After our 10 week session he listens to our commands and seems to be happy walking, instead of being fearful of his surroundings. Nick and Lauren are an exceptional team together. They love what they do and there loyalty and hard work speaks volumes of all their achievements. As you read all the testimonials from people who brought their dogs here, it's all true. It takes constant work, but with the tools you are given you will have a good dog that loves and respects you everyday. Thank you both. Not only are we better parents, but our boy is happy and feels safe.

Highly recommend! We had a reactive dog but Lauren and Nick rebuilt her confidence to enable her to ignore other dogs on walks and more importantly, taught us how's to handle her better. Their coaching will stay with us a lifetime - we’re so grateful for their patient, hands on support and care for our girl (and for us, too)!

We brought our 1 year old golden retriever to Chicagoland Dog Training and couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! The trainers are not only highly skilled, but also genuinely passionate about what they do!
The program covered everything from basic obedience to more advanced commands. Our dog barely knew sit for a command and we practically laughed picking him up because he knew everything from sit, down, place, wait, come, and most importantly leash manners and no jumping! Nick and Lauren gave us homework to keep up the training at home, and we can confidently say they made dog training FUN! From getting frustrated trying to train him initially to watching our pup soar, we are so thankful for all the energy they put into making him such a good boy! They are available for questions any time of the day and even sent us pictures with updates throughout the 2 week period. You can tell they took great care of him by all the affection he got when we had our pick up lesson too! 10/10 recommend!

Nick and Lauren did such a great with my Beagle/CoonHound named Henry. He is so sweet, gental and SMART, but he wanted to be the Boss of the family. The little stinker knew exactly what buttons to push to get my blood pressure up. I had hip surgery and decided to try their Board & Train for 14 days. I couldn't believe my eyes when I went to pick him up. Henry follow all the commands and did exactly what they said. They showed me what to do and how to practice with Henry when I get home. He stayed with Nick & Lauren during this 14 day session & treated him like one of their own. I want to thank them so much for starting this new journey and loving him like their own.
Sincerely "THE NEW BOSS"
