The Dog Knowledge is fantastic. My 6 month old puppy just finished 4 weeks of training and he has learned so many commands including staying in place, walking near us with the leash, and using the crate. The four week training includes a follow up session at home. We highly recommend it.

The Dog Knowledge is unequivocally the premier dog training facility in Charlotte. Over the span of 11 years, this is now the third dog in our family who has gone to their 4 week training camp, and we cannot say enough good things about them. They are professional, knowledgeable and truly care about the well being of each and every dog entrusted to their care. They have developed a tried and true method that works. Our dogs are better listeners, more obedient and well mannered. Debbie, Dennis, Justin and Brittany are simply the best in the business! Thank you for teaching first Hampton, then Enzo and now Maggie to be their best!

Dog Knowledge is a great investment into your dog and we are already seeing a return on our investment. Gus loves returning for training refreshers, daycare and boarding. Also love using the dog wash station.

Cooper had an excellent four weeks at training -- they provided regular updates, and it was clear at the graduation that TDK takes training seriously, and they do it with exceptional professionalism, but also incredible care for the pups that they are training. I also appreciate Haven for the teaching at graduation, but also for how much she clearly cared about Coop. He is so calm on leash walking now without pulling (in addition to much more), and TDK provides all the tools to build on the training he has already done. I have also used their boarding for Cooper, and Dennis is always prompt with responses for coordination, and Coop is always happy (and exhausted) after boarding as well. I cannot recommend this place more highly!
