Questions & answers

From Google

What 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

Question on Google
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.

I cannot recommend DTN enough. This is the second time in 7 years that I’ve brought a foster to adopt young dog into DTN, not just for training but also for socialization, independence and confidence building. With both of my dogs, Dan and his team completely understood the assignment! The trainers all took the time to get to know my dog and identify how he’s responding to their training. Not only did both of my dogs come out of a 2 week training program beautifully trained, there was clearly also the socialization I was looking for. And just to validate this, I just had a complete stranger stop me to comment on how lovely my pup was healing on his walk.

I saw a friend’s dog go through this program and the great results for her dog so I decided to give it a try. Wow! I cannot express what am amazing experience we had. My mini golden doodle could not wait to go each day. We did the two week on leash program, took a two week break for spaying and then did another 2 week program for off leash. The change was dramatic even on day 1! All of the trainers and the owners were exceptional. The last two weeks were primarily with Bill. He truly has empathy and insight into the specific dog’s nature and characteristics. Due to scheduling issues, we boarded Kelly for 3 nights. The trainers and owners take the dogs to their homes. I could see from the photos that were sent that she had a blast! Thank you to all of the team! This experience was worth every penny and we will continue to rely on them for refreshers and boarding.

Our family just finished a 4 week training program for our 6 month old pup, Benny. I can’t say enough good things about this place… the facility is super clean and the owners and all the trainers are very friendly, consistent, organized and knowledgeable. Benny now comes to me when I call him and walks are much easier! I feel like we have such a better communication with each other. I highly recommend Dog Training Now!

Recently adopted a puppy from a shelter and signed up for 2 weeks of puppy training at this location. Was very pleased with the 2 week course. Our little terrier mix Snowball was always excited to go every morning to interact with the very friendly staff. At every pick up, you’d get a summary of the day, a chance to ask questions and ask for advice and some tips to continue working on trainings at home. In a short span of 2 weeks: Snowball was nipping far less with people at home, learned basic socialization with other puppies, learned commands like sit and gained confidence to navigate obstacles. Would recommend their puppy training and likely going back in the summer for on leash training. Thank you to the very engaged and friendly staff at Dog Training Now!
