Great positive reinforcement dog school with small class sizes and awesome instructors. We loved the reactive dog training. Our pup is so much better at disengaging, managing big feelings, and she's more confident and listens well in higher stimulus environments.
Good Dog’s team helped me make more progress with my fearful dog than I ever thought was possible. We worked mostly with Kailey & she was so knowledgeable & helpful while giving me the tools to continue building my dog’s confidence without risking additional fear or stress about the outside world. The whole team was always welcoming, honest & supportive!

I couldn’t more highly recommend Good Dog! They have wonderful, kind and very qualified positive reinforcement trainers. I’ve used their puppy training services, day training, private lessons, CGC classes and more and never failed to be impressed. They have a wide variety of class offerings, including courses for reactive dog owners and dog sports. They are great with my adolescent golden retriever and always very patient. Thank you for all of your help!

We’ve loved all our experiences with Good Dog. We’ve taken our personal dog there for day training and day care, taken individual lessons with various trainers for our foster dogs, and taken the reactive dog class, as well! Nothing but the best to say about every single person we’ve worked with (Cait, Kailey, Brad, Jess, Maggie, Chelsea, Michelle, Lisa and more!!) Such a great team and wonderful resource to have locally.
