I stand out because I know animals. I know that not only do they require physical simulations (walks, playtime, etc)- They THRIVE when giving mental simulation as well. That's what makes the biggest difference. I have many fun "thinking" toys and treats that challenge dogs / cats minds so they can have the best experience as possible while under my care. Most animals whether it is dogs, cats, or even hamsters- get extremely anxious when their owners board them. I like to be there and make it as enjoyable an experience as possible for them and to guide them through it as well. My biggest goal is to have your animal enjoy boarding as a vacation

I love the loyalty and love all dogs have. They are the most intelligent beauties that demand nothing but give everything. My husband and I have 5 dogs and have been fostering dogs for about 7 years. I decided to go to school to learn proper techniques to train dogs so I'd be able to help shelter dogs considered "unadoptable" because they lack manners. It is the most gratifying thing I do. I can say I enjoy everything about what I do. But, the absolute best thing is to see a dog learn and start performing what they've been taught!...

All American K9 Academy Inc is unlike any training company in the New England area because our trainers educate you about the behavior your dog is displaying and train you not only how to correct unwanted behavior but how to recondition the dog into a more confident healthy pet you crave without the use of food or other aids most other trainers use. The first step to train with us is to via our website and fill out our application for evaluation. During evaluation we will discuss programs and pricing that fits your budget. No prices can be given without evaluation. I love watching the progress of owners and their dogs after each session we ha

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.

Melissa worked with my dog for quite awhile he has behavior issues and was very afraid and because of that aggressive towards anyone . Melissa never gave up on my boy. She worked basically everyday to gain him trust . It’s now been 1 year 1/2 and my boy is a completely different dog. We can take him out with us now! Melissa is just starting out but she is by far the person you want for your dog. She has a way with dogs they u def stand her and trust her and she does the same with the

Working with Taylor has been great. We have a 6 month old German Shepard that has made drastic improvements and has made our lives much easier after training with Taylor.When it comes to dog walking, she doesn't just take the dog around the block for a bathroom break when we are at work. She goes for a hike in the woods to really get the dog out and playing with other dogs. So our dog Brooklyn is socialized and tired at the end of the day. Highly recommended.

We are so glad we decided to go with Steve and Domestic Dog Training for our 2 year old dog, Maizie!! We chose to do a three week training course and Maizie is a new dog!! She is so much more obedient and less fearful than before she worked with Steve. Our ultimate goal is to be able to take her on off-leash adventures and Steve has set us up on that path! He’s so approachable and responsive and kept us updated with pictures and videos during her stay. He has also been incredibly helpful with follow up after her training with phone calls, FaceTime, and in person meetings to ensure we’re continuing her learning! I’ve already sent a few more dogs to Steve, and will continue to recommend him to anyone who thinks they may need it!!! Thanks again Steve for all your hard work!!!!
