Positive training with positive results!

"I adopted my dog Biggie from the Dane County Humane Society in December. I enrolled him right away with Dog’s Best Friend Training, starting with the Beginner Obedience class. Since then, we have taken classes all the way up through Advanced Obedience. We have also taken Agility 1 through Competition Agility 1 classes. All the instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful (and have loads of patience which was needed, at times, with Biggie!) I have thoroughly enjoyed taking classes with Dog’s Best Friend and highly recommend them for training your dog!"

"The staff at Dog's Best Friend have always been available to answer small questions and even have come to see us for a home visit after our puppy starting veering down to visit the road. They are truly an amazing resource."

"I've been attending classes at Dog's Best Friend with my dog, Rookie, for almost three years now. I started out in puppy socialization classes, obedience, and am now in the advanced competition agility class. I have only good things to say about the instructors at Dog's Best Friend. They are supportive and positive, tailoring the instruction to each dog/handler's needs. Because of their knowledge and experience, they do not have a one size fits all approach. They help each team build a solid relationship and foundation - no matter what your individual goals are. I also appreciate the fact that they stay abreast with emerging training methods and share that knowledge with their students. They are always progressing so that their students can also. Thank you Dogs Best Friend Training!"

No matter what the situation they are there for you — be it through email or phone, they will address any of your concerns. I am very happy with the training I've received. The results that you see with your dog are amazing. I'm looking forward to taking my classes at Dog's Best Friend. Thank you so much Aimee, Chelse and Lisa for everything!"

"Dog's Best Friend Training is a tremendous resource for pet owners. My dogs and I have taken numerous classes and I've found the trainers to be very professional and understanding of the dogs' and owners' individual training needs. In addition, I've had several individual consultations with Chelse Wagner. She is an excellent trainer and animal behaviorist, and has a wonderful rapport with animals with varying temperaments. My dogs and I have greatly benefited from the expertise and training at Dogs Best Friend."
