Found Chicago Boarding & Training Center

Heard of found through word of mouth from excellent referrals, but the result was astonishing once we picked up Argo, a small 5 year old maltipoo we inherited from my mother after she passed. He was completely untrained, went to the bathroom everywhere, was possessive about objects in his mouth and had an attachment issue where he would growl if being approached while he was at my wife’s side. 3 weeks at found and he is a new dog- so well behaved, trained and obedient. Wow!!! We are extremely impressed with the training he received and I could not recommend a better training center. Well done !!!

Have known Fabian, the Founder and CEO for awhile from the neighborhood, and was very interested in his facilities programs. We got a Siberian Husky puppy 01-28, and she has just started Pup Start in the last week: wow…what a difference! What I like more than anything else is the take home work for the dog parents. I didn’t realize how much I didn’t know about raising a good pup till now, and I’ve done it with two Boxers already! Top notch facility, clean areas, great shop with comparable pricing to the other big box stores. I’d definitely advise others to make the investment, in your dog, Found and yourself!

When we enrolled Lemon, our at the time 6 month old field lab, in PupStart+ at Found Training Center one of her trainers commented that she was "a lot of dog" -- a year later people often ask if she is the same dog. The staff at Found worked with Lemon and her owners (us) to understand how to channel the high drive that comes with her breed into stable behavior and "work" that Lemon enjoys just as much as napping and belly rubs. The PupStart+ program at Found is definitely not a quick hit course that teaches a dog how to sit and shake hands. It is a methodical process, that focuses on repetition and building useful behaviors over time that really stick. We now feel confident introducing our PupStart+ graduate to situations that would have had us fretting over her ability to control her exuberance not that long ago. Thanks again PupStart team!
