Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How long does intensive coaching usually take in Chicago, FL?
Most dogs start showing noticeable improvements within a few sessions. The length of the program depends on your dog’s age, temperament, and specific training goals.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-12-21
How does Prestige Dog Training help with leash reactivity?
At Prestige Dog Training in Chicago, we use proven techniques to teach dogs calm, focused, and confident walking skills, improving leash behavior.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-12-21
Will one session really make a difference?
In many cases, yes. When the training is tailored and focused, even one session can shift patterns your dog has been stuck in.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-12-21
Can you help a dog that shuts down one day and explodes the next?
Yes. Reactive behavior isn’t always loud; sometimes it’s fear in disguise. We’re trained to read both ends of the spectrum and adjust sessions so your dog feels safe enough to learn.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-12-21
What age of dog is suitable for a board & train at Prestige Dog Training Chicago?
We work with dogs starting from about 6 months and up. Puppies younger than that may benefit more from short-term classes and owner-led training before full immersion.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Do you customize each training plan?
Every dog is different, so yes—your plan is built around your dog’s personality, habits, and what’s going on in your home and neighborhood.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Will the Chicago Dog Trainers come to my home, or do we need to bring my dog to your facility?
We offer both options. In-home sessions are available for convenience, while training at our Chicago facility provides structured environments for advanced behavior work.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Is board-and-train safe for dogs who are new to the Ashland Ave Chicago, FL area?
Absolutely. We help dogs settle in quickly with routine, structure, and guided exposure. Many out-of-area dogs adjust within a day or two.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Do the Chicago Dog Trainers involve the dog owner in training, or is it trainer-only?
Yes, owners are actively involved. Our trainers teach you techniques to reinforce good behavior at home, creating long-term consistency.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Can you help with reactive or fearful dogs in Chicago?
Absolutely. Our Dog Training Chicago specialists work with anxious and reactive dogs daily — helping them become calm, confident, and responsive, even in busy city settings.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
What results can I expect after completing a Chicago board and train program?
Most owners see lasting improvements in leash manners, recall, impulse control, and social behavior. With continued practice at home, these results can last a lifetime.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-11-21
Can you help with aggressive or stubborn dogs?
Absolutely. Our trainers are experienced with stubborn and reactive dogs, making us a top choice for challenging cases in dog training Chicago.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
I’ve tried group classes before. Why should I switch to private dog training in Chicago?
Group classes are great for some dogs, but they don’t work for every personality. Private sessions let us focus 100% on your dog’s behavior, in your home, where the real issues happen. You’ll see progress faster and get personalized guidance you can actually use.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
Do you only focus on obedience commands?
No — we also work on behavior issues like jumping, barking, leash manners, and even confidence-building for shy pups.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
Do I need to attend every training session with my dog?
For best results, yes. Your involvement reinforces what your dog learns and builds a stronger bond. However, for board & train programs, we handle most of the work, then guide you on maintaining results at home.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
What if my dog has already been through training elsewhere?
No problem. Our Chicago dog trainers often work with dogs who’ve had prior training. We identify the gaps and build on what your dog already knows.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
Can you come to my home for training?
Absolutely! We offer both in-home sessions and on-site training at our Chicago facility — whatever’s most comfortable for you and your pup.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
Are there any benefits to choosing local trainers in Chicago?
Absolutely. Local trainers understand the city’s environment—like crowded sidewalks, busy parks, and apartment living—and tailor their approach accordingly.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
What kind of daily schedule will my dog follow during training?
Your dog’s day includes structured training sessions, exercise, socialization, downtime, and routine care — all designed to build discipline and confidence.
Community answer · Prestige Dog Training · 2025-10-21
How do you keep dogs comfortable while boarding?
We mix training with daily play, exercise, and rest. Our Chicago facility is designed to feel safe and stress-free for every pup.

We worked with Ulysses to help our 1 yr old Australian Shepherd that had become reactive to other dogs. Ulysses had our dog improving immediately and in great shape within two weeks. Our pup was previously isolated at daycare prior to neutering which resulted in aggressive reactivity we were struggling to correct. We received great guidance on how to work with our pup in our home environment while Ulysses continued to build a strong base for us to work with. We are extremely happy with the results and cannot recommend Prestige and Ulysses enough. It was worth every penny and more.

Ulysses is a fantastic dog trainer! Our 8 month old black lab Playa has had 8 obedience classes, and she’s now so easy to be around! She was potty-trained more quickly than we expected. She stopped biting people and everything else in sight. She heels consistently and walks right next to us, sits, comes to us when called, and gets on and off furniture that we point at. I strongly recommend Prestige Dog Trainers!

Ulysses and the board and train program far exceeded our expectations!! We were at our wits end with our dog, Kevin. He got kicked out of daycare, wasn’t listening, had terrible recall, and got overexcited way too easily. On top of that, we were combining households and about to start introducing him to cats, which terrified us. The 3 week behavior modification board and train was nothing short of transformative. Kevin is a new dog. We can take him off leash at the park now. He is better socialized with other dogs. And, Ulysses even worked to familiarize Kevin with his cat. We would hands down recommend the program.

We had an amazing experience with Prestige Training! Lux had the best time during his board and train, he did well with everyone he worked with and made so many furry friends along the way. He did extremely well in his pickup class with all of his commands he learned over the three weeks he was there. The team was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and always communicated clearly when scheduling visits, plus we loved receiving photos and videos of Lux along the way. We couldn’t be happier with the results!
