FirstBarkJoe was an amazing help to us with our Goldendoodle Kane. He completed training with Joe and we now have a completely different dog! He is much easier to control and listens to commands. Our son enjoys our pup so much more now that he has manners and is not mouthy. Also a plus for Kane that he got to play with lots of other dog pals while visiting Foster Dog Farms.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Joe, a neighbor told me about your business and I'd like to know how old does the dog need to be for training? I have a 4 month old Calhoun who is going wild. Please give me an idea when her training can start?
Hi Cyndi, We start private lessons as early as 8-10 weeks and training camps around 4-6 months of age. Feel free to give us a call and we can discuss your current challenges with your puppy, what your goals with training are, and what program may be your best option. Thank you!

I can’t say enough great things about training with Joe at Foster Dog Farms. We do in home training and it’s made a world of difference in our pup. He is reliable, affordable and flexible to our needs. Foster dog farm offers daycare and boarding as well. This family run business is the way to go! Highly recommend!
As an active volunteer in rescue for manatee county I have used Foster Dog Farms training many times. And the talent and perseverance of Joe and Allie Menendez has saved the lives of many dogs and led to their successful adoptions and forever homes😁

I found Allie and her husband's business Foster Dog Farms through my communities Facebook page well over a year ago. They came highly recommended and I can see why. I get daily pics and updates about my dog Allie in her care. (Yes , Allie shares the same name as Allie , the foster daycare mom) She doesn't come home stressed. she actually howls in the car as we are driving away because she will miss her friends. this isnt your ordinary pet sitting services, day care services or anything else related to dropping your dog off for some fun while you go out of town. Allie and Joe are professionals in the field of Veterinary care and obedience training. I almost dread giving their name as a recommendation because itll make it harder to get in. But trusting and caring people are hard to find in this industry and if one more pup can have an amazing vacay, what the heck!

Joe and Alli are amazing. When me and my husband go on vacation we use Foster Dog Farms because we know they are taking great care of our dogs. Joe has trained our 1st dog Leo and we never stop getting compliments on how well behaved they are. We also had the positive experience of adopting from Joe and Alli with our 2nd dog Matilda. They provided help with training or if we had questions. Over all great place to board/ train your dog, I wouldn't go anywhere else.
