What people have asked about this business.
Can you teach my dog to come to me reliably off leash?
Yes! Reliable off-leash recall is absolutely something we can train. While it’s a common goal, it’s not a basic command - it requires a solid foundation in on-leash obedience and good manners at home first. Once those are in place, we can build up to off-leash training, ensuring your dog responds even with distractions like rabbits and squirrels. This is something we work on regularly with clients, and we’d love to help!

We offer comprehensive training for pet dogs. If you want to get started on the right foot with your new puppy, if you have an adult dog with behaviors that are making you feel frustrated day after day, or if you just want to strengthen the bond you already have with your dog we are here to help!

Training is important for dogs in all stages of life. The impact of proper socialization and training on a young puppy will impact them for their entire lives! Adult dogs also get huge benefits from training and owners should not believe the old saying that “old dogs can’t learn new tricks” We love helping owners improve their relationship with their dogs of all ages.

Bringing our dog to train at Dogs Best Friends facility was absolutely the best decision for our family.
Our pup Ginny was very insecure and not getting along with our other dog at home, and was always on edge with everything around her. It was often tense and really wearing on my wife and myself.
After meeting Reid, and seeing the facility we knew this was the place for training.
We boarded her at first and continued with weekly lessons after. We slowly started seeing changes in both dogs behavior but more importantly, we were taught to work with her at home.
We were also given Reids’ training videos and received quick feedback if we had questions.
Today, nearly 4 months later we still train every day but our home has changed so much. We didn’t have control before and now we do thanks to Dogs best friend!! Absolutely worth it.

The best training ever! Reid is exceptional in all ways and his training has made a huge difference in my dog. No more leash pulling, walks beside me and not in front of me, I could go on and on. If you are looking for an excellent trainer, look no further.
