This was our first week at Dog Training Now with puppy preschool, and our 14-week dog (Harley) is already so much better adjusted. He LOVES going to DTN and tries to pull me back in the door when we leave for the day! We can't wait for him to start the obedience training in a few weeks.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do the dogs have play time to learn to socialize with other dogs?
They sure do! That was a huge benefit and big draw for us. The dogs spend a ton of time together and learn in a great supervised environment

can you guys train a psychiatric service dog?
They don't offer any service dog training courses but their obedience training courses will help your dog on the way to becoming a service dog. Your dog will need a basic understanding of obedience skills before getting any service dog certifications.

how much dose this traing cost?
The cost of training depends on which program you choose. To figure out which program is best for your dog, sign up for a free consultation. You bring your dog and meet with a trainer to discuss what you're looking to get out of training, and which program would best suit you and your dog's needs.

This is a little overdue but I have been meaning to post a review because Dog Training Now has been fantastic! My dog completed the 10 day Day Training Program in 2024 and the 10 day Advanced Off Leash Training in 2026. I have a Wire Fox Terrier who can be stubborn and has lots of energy and it has helped her so much. Before signing up for training, we met with Dan and he was able to answer all of my questions. For the first program, she worked with all of the trainers and every day when I picked her up they reviewed what they worked on that day. Unfortunately I don’t remember everyone’s names but all of the trainers were great including Elisa, Bill, Allison, JJ, and Brittany. For the off leash training, she primarily worked with one trainer, Morgan, who was so patient and reassuring. I also love that they post photos on social media throughout the day so you can see what your dog is up to. We have also come back a couple times for a refresher training day and I am sure we will be back again. I have seen a big difference with my dog and am so happy we were able to do the training. All in all, I would highly recommend DTN, they are the best!

I couldn’t be more pleased with not only the results, but the entire training process and outstanding trainers at Dog Training Now. I enrolled by dog in the 20 day training program. During the course of those 20 days, I had the opportunity for private lessons with the trainers at the end of the day, so I could learn the proper way to use and maintain the skills that my dog learned. Throughout the program, I was quite impressed and thankful that literally everyone who works at Dog Training Now is outstanding in their knowledge, skills, and passion for helping dogs succeed in becoming well trained members of their families. My six month old puppy has transformed in so many positive ways. I highly recommend Dog Training Now. I want to express my special thanks to Dan, one of the business’s owners, and Morgan, the kind trainer who guided and encouraged my dog Angus to success in his final 10 days of training.

I recommend Dog Training Now to anyone who needs help with their dog. Our dog Elmer loved going everyday and loved all of his trainers. He especially loved Brittany. She was so kind with Elmer and didn’t take his sassiness but embraced it. Every trainer was professional and enjoyed what they did. Bernese mountain dogs can be difficult to train. We saw a difference in him within the first few days. Thank you DTN! Elmer will for sure be back!!
Dog Training Now made us feel comfortable from the beginning. Our 5-year old boxer was welcomed and received excellent training. Of particular Brittany was great; she cared for her very much. We look forward to further training and boarding opportunities with DTN.
