Our training programs are designed to get results! There are many factors, including your dog's age, temperament, and your personal training goals that will determine what program you need. We start any program with our low cost $40 evaluation where we will get hands on with your dog and give you the chance to ask any questions you may have before beginning training.
Private Lesson Programs
Private lessons quickly solve many common behavior problems. Appointment times are flexible. Not for dogs with serious behavior issues. Your dog will spend the day at Dog's Best Friend and have several training sessions throughout the day. At the end of the training day, we will have a lesson that covers all that your dog learned and then get you hands-on with your dog. Lessons are typically spaced one week apart.

Residency Programs
Our residency programs are a true investment in the years to come that you will spend with your dog. Your dog resides with us in our home for intensive training while we keep you updated on their progress with frequent texts and pictures. Let us do the hardest work for you! Residency programs deliver a reliably trained dog quickly and with less effort on your part. All of our residency programs include a series of private follow-up lessons designed to help you maintain your dog's progress.
