What people have asked about this business.
Do you only train puppies? My Wire Fox Terrier just turned 2. Have had her since 9 weeks old. Surgeries and health issues have kept me from her getting the training she needed. She is extremely loving with people and other dogs
She has a class that would be right for you

Hello! We train dogs of all ages. We would love to work with your 2-year old. Please check our website at believeindogtraining.com to see what services we offer. Very likely the best service for you will be our Adolescent-Adult Basic Manners class.

Wow… from the moment you step into Believe in Dog, you’ll understand why so many trust and bring their pups here. Can’t say enough good things about their dedication, love and commitment to the pups in their care. Wonderful experience with puppy day school and the in puppy 1 classes. Kona absolutely loves class and going to puppy day school. Special shout out to Pedram who did an amazing job managing pups of different breeds and sizes! We look forward to making many new memories there

As a first time Puppy Parent, I was skeptical if I wanted to sign up for classes that will help train my puppy. After browsing through so many different options, I decided to go with Believe in Dog and it’s probably been one of THE best decisions I have ever made.
My pup, Remington, just finished Puppy Class Part One. They teach the basics such as sit, down, leave it, etc and it’s about 6 weeks long, meeting once a week. In those weeks, I have seen such a difference not just in my puppy, but in myself. I feel so much more confident in teaching my dog and exercising all the things we’ve learned in class.
And, I just haaaave to give a HUGE shoutout to both Ms. Kate and Ms. Jae who not only guided us throughout but are genuinely passionate in what they do and it shows immensely in the love they give to the pups who love them just as much.
It’s an investment to have a puppy and I hope if you’re reading this and are on the fence if you should or shouldn’t sign up, one thing is certain — Believe in Dog is worth it.
We can’t wait to sign up for Puppy Class Part Two!
