I have boarded my Havanese, Stella Rose several times with ACD. She was trained there as a young pup. Mark is an amazing trainer as is Ali, Hailey, Emily and the rest of the personnel. I trust them completely. You receive photos and videos of your fur baby while she is boarded there. We are in the Port Charlotte area. I am very happy with Advanced Canine Development.

Advanced canine, Amazing 5 stars x 2 Upon my first visit I was amazed at how clean the facility is kept, & how well behaved all the dogs are. Big points for hygiene and the chill vibe of the residents. I could tell the dogs are happy and well cared for. Everyone was smiling, friendly and knowledgeable. The Training skills of the team are above and beyond expectations. My dog loves the trainers and you can tell the trainers love the dogs. The level of enthusiasm is exciting, and the pups want to learn. This place is a game changer. I’m not a big review writing kinda guy. But I am a dog lover and extremely blessed to have found Advanced canine. Highly recommend if want a well behaved dog with manners, you owe it to your furry family to check this place out!

So grateful for the boarding at Advanced Canine Development! My boy can be a little difficult, and I had not found anywhere where I felt I could safely board him that had the structure he needed-but luckily in working with Advanced Canine I found that place. They work with my boy to ensure he gets the exercise and interaction he needs through the day, while keeping him safe and giving me peace of mind. He doesn’t do well Interacting with all dogs, and knowing this they provide a safe way for him to play and maintain his comfortability. Advanced Canine Development has become my boys second family, and I couldn’t ask for a better group to care for him. They send me lots of pictures to let me know how he is doing through his stay, and are always willing to answer any questions I have. So grateful to be able to go away knowing my boy is safe and cared for when I can’t be the one to do it. Being located in North Port Florida, I know I have options; but when boarding my boy Advanced Canine is my place.

Our Boys love going to this place. All the Staff is caring, professional and always available. Our pups completed board and train for 3 weeks each and came out much better behaved and we learned as much as our dogs. Mark and all the girls do an outstanding job providing training and obedience but we also use them for day care, nail trims and even overnight stays. We highly recommend Advanced Canine Development for all your boarding and training needs.
