FDF Canine Services

HANDS DOWN THE BEST EXPERIENCE! We had our 1 year old dog do the 4 week board and train and she came home a totally different dog. It was so worth the money and the time away from her! Our dog is a boxer mix with all the energy in the world and she loved to jump on everyone she met to say hello, counter surf, and pull on her leash to the point no one in the family wanted to take her out for walks because it was potentially dangerous due to her being so strong. She came home from FDF as a calm and obedient dog who we can now incorporate into so many parts of our lives without fear that she will accidentally hurt someone by jumping or pulling on her leash. She even came on our recent vacation and went on hikes, a boat day, and got tons of snuggles in the mountains - something we would have never imagined doing before she went to FDF! Our only regret is not signing her up for the board and train sooner!

Our experience with Joe at FDF Canine Services has been outstanding! He was an incredible instructor for both us and our temperamental Frenchie. Joe provided deep insights into the psychology of our dog's behavior and gave us positive, practical tools to effectively reshape it. We noticed immediate gains in our dog's responsiveness and focus; thanks to this training, what used to be frustrating encounters have become rewarding successes. Unlike past trainers who often allowed situations to escalate, Joe's profound understanding of canine behavior produces meaningful results. He helped us address our own handling errors while ensuring our pet clearly understood the expectations. It is obvious that he truly cares and is committed to collaborating with owners to achieve their goals. For anyone looking for professional expertise and genuine progress from a dog trainer, I highly recommend FDF Canine Services. We are truly happy with the outcome of working with Joe!!!

We can’t say enough good things about FDF Canine Services. Our GSD puppy Zyra did her training here, and now it’s the only place we trust for boarding when we travel. From day one, Joe and his staff are incredible! Joe is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in the dogs he works with. The training made a huge difference for Zyra, not just in obedience, but in her confidence and behavior overall. You can tell they truly understand dogs and care about doing things the right way. Now that Zyra boards here when we’re out of town, it gives us total peace of mind. We know she’s safe, well cared for, and actually happy while we’re gone, not just kenneled and forgotten. That alone is priceless! If you’re looking for a place that treats your dog like their own and actually delivers results with training and top-tier care, this is it. Highly recommend!!!!!!!
