Great things happen when we study dogs and teach ourselves. Our puppy classes teach dog owners to transform into dog parents. Learning how to responsively relate and communicate in a meaningful way with our puppies creates amazing outcomes. For those looking for puppy kindergarten, obedience or puppy socialization classes, you have come to the right place. :)

Please call them. Megan will answer all your questions. We too have a pup that is very different from our previous dogs. We needed help too. We're now in our second class at YDBF and we've learned so much.

Our first meeting changed my life a little!! Juniper was the worst walker lunging for any creatures and pulling me every which way- and after some tips we went on a really great walk and she immediately was better. Now I look forward to walks

We had two private sessions with Freddie that were absolutely worth the money and time spent. Our 1 year old dog has been struggling with separation anxiety, and after trying various things for the last year that weren't helping, we finally decided to look into professional help. We are really glad we did! Freddie is super kind, patient, and open. He was easy to get ahold of and very punctual. We were so impressed with our experience with Freddie that we gave his contact info to some of our closest friends who were also looking for a dog trainer. Highly recommend!

We had such a great experience with Freddie! Our sweet dogs had been getting increasingly more reactive (loud decibel barking) with people coming over or changes to routine. In our sessions, Freddie gave us insight into dog psychology, games to play with our dogs to build better communication, and in just a short time it's been night and day: our dogs are calmer, our house is much quieter, and we feel better able to communicate with them. In addition to being a skilled trainer, Freddie clearly loves what he does, was easy to schedule with, and is a natural with dogs. Highly recommend!
