Dog Trained LLC

I'm a local trainer and super picky about who I trust my personal dogs to. Dog Trained is the real deal. It's a lovely, local business that knows their stuff. From the moment my new puppy and I walked into the space, I could tell we were in good hands. The trainers are exceptional—a rare combination of canine experts and enthusiasts who are equally caring and patient with their human clients. In each session of our puppy class, we learned a multitude of new obedience and life skills. My puppy also had the opportunity to socialize with other suitable puppies. He wasn't just randomly mixed with a group of dogs; his interactions were managed in a way that really helped him reach his full potential. The classes, though set in a group environment, provide individual attention to each puppy. The trainers are attentive to each dog's needs, adjusting exercises to suit their specific stages of development. This approach is far from the one-size-fits-all method often seen in larger chain stores. Another highlight is their location. Right in D.C., it's incredibly convenient. I attended the Sunday classes and I easily found parking right in front. Long story short, I can't recommend Dog Trained enough. Trust me, I've been to most of the group classes in the area. Dog Trained easily surpasses most of the other puppy classes in the area. You can't go wrong with these classes. Claus says, "sign up!"

We get SO many compliments about how sweet and well-adjusted our 8-month old, Bennett, is. We owe it ALL to Gwen and Liz at dogTRAINED. We took Bennett to puppy play almost every Saturday from the time we got her to the time she aged out of the class. We learned SO much about how to facilitate Bennett’s socialization and how to support her through puppy-hood. We are forever grateful to Gwen and Liz for their expertise, support, and love for all dogs who walk through their door. Could not recommend dogTRAINED enough!!!
