Tim M. says, "Undeniably a wonderful experience and teaching from Matt. He was punctual, informative and answered all our questions. He was calm but firm with our dog, Mimo. His demeanor was in sync with our anxious, newly rescued dog. He also demonstrated how to recognize and handle anxious behavior that in a few days Mimo has made great progress and now we understand how to move forward. He also gave us techniques to help increase the trust and bonding between Mimo and us. After we use our new knowledge and approaches, we hope to schedule a followup session with Matt and continue to make progress with Mimo in her forever home. Matt is the real deal and we highly recommend him." Read more

I have been a dog trainer for over 20 years specializing in protection and family oriented dog training. I can assist families with aggression, behavior modification, as well as leash training. I offer boarding in addition to individual training. I have been featured on National Geographic for my work in protection. What I love most is showing families how to get their K9 to fit into their lifestyle.

We take the time to first build a good relationship with your dog before training starts. A dog doesn't learn from a scary stranger pulling and snatching at his collar. But that same dog will gladly take instruction from a FRIEND. We guarantee our work and we dont give up on any dog regardless of how serious the issue. We also train you, the dog parent, to be a dog handler. You will learn all the things your dog learns and you will learn how to get him to perform f...

Your Dog Training questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much are dog training prices near me?

Professional dog training costs $30 to $50 per group class and $45 to $120 per private session. Dog obedience training schools cost $200 to $600 per week, and boot camp kennel training costs $500 to $1,250 per week. Get exact prices by contacting affordable dog trainers near you.

What do professional dog trainers do?

Local dog trainers teach dogs basic obedience, behavioral modification, agility, personal protection or guarding, emotional support, therapy or service dog training, show dog handling, puppy training, trick training, hunting training, police dog or K9 training, and other types.

Certified dog trainers offer group classes, private lessons, or come to your home for one-on-one training. The best in-home dog trainers also teach the owner how to train commands, use body language, and offer proper reinforcement guidance. Many dog trainers use positive reinforcement, which uses a reward (treats, praise, toys) for desired behaviors.

What is the best age to train a dog?

Puppies 7 to 8 weeks of age begin to learn basic obedience commands such as “sit,” “stay,” “stand,” and “down.” Professional dog training traditionally starts at 6 months old. By delaying training, behavioral patterns learned during puppyhood likely take longer to change.

Can you train an old dog?

Yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks! Dogs can learn and be trained at any age. Older dogs have more self-control and are easier to train than young puppies. Continuing to train your dog as it matures is also important to help keep their mind sharp.

Is paying for private dog training worth it?

Private dog training helps correct your dog’s behavior, aggression, anxiety, socialization skills, and teaches them a commands list in a timely and cost-effective manner. Common commands dogs learn quickly are to stay, heel, and roll over.

Professional dog training is valuable because it teaches your dog not to jump or bite, to stop barking, to stay in the yard off-leash, potty training, to use a dog door, not to pull on a leash, hand signals, and much more.

Which dog breeds are easy to train?

The easiest dog breeds to train are an Australian Shepherd, Corgi, Bearded or Border Collie, Poodle, Miniature Schnauzer, Labrador, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd, and a Doberman Pinscher. Female canines of all breeds are also easier to train and housebreak.

Which dog breeds are hard to train?

The hardest dogs breeds to train are a Husky, Mastiff, Pug, Beagle, Bulldog, Weimaraner, Afghan Hound, Basenji, Basset Hound, Bloodhound, Chow Chow, Dalmatian, Fox and Kerry Blue Terrier, Irish Setter, Pekingese, Pit Bull Terrier, Jack Russell Terrier, and a Rottweiler.

Ken is training ME so I can be a better pet mom to our dog. His teaching is giving me more confidence with a 90+ lb. dog who is learning who is in charge. His methods are simple but effective. Thank you, Ken.
