This was a great experience! My partner and I didn't know what to do or how to begin training our new dog. We worked closely with Nicole and Ben and they were amazing. Ben and Nicole are incredibly knowledgeable and take pride in their work. They listened to our concerns and help made a plan to fit the needs of our dog. We've seen great changes in our dog and feel 100% more confident in our ability to manage his behavior. 10/10 experience!

I did my homework before choosing Bucks Training Center. I researched facilities, vetted trainers, and reached out to several before deciding who I was comfortable trusting with our dog for a multi week board and train. Bucks stood out from our first original meet and greet.
Nicole, the CEO, was refreshingly direct. She wasn’t trying to just “sell” us or win our favor. She immediately noticed a few things with our dog, made some corrections on the spot, and was upfront about what she saw. She was friendly and professional, but you could tell very quickly that this is her life’s work and she genuinely loves dogs.
Once we signed up, that same professionalism continued. Drop off was smooth, and they absolutely understand that leaving your pup for several weeks is harder on us humans than we’d like to admit. 😂 We received videos every day, the trainers were extremely communicative through chat and phone, and Nicole personally checked in about once a week to discuss his progress, including both his high points and some of his more entertaining blunders. Her team that I worked with are great!
Our boy is sweet, hyperactive, and a breed that can definitely be a handful if he isn’t worked with correctly. We had tried training when he was younger with someone who made a lot of guarantees. That experience taught me there’s a BIG difference between someone who can sell dog training just to collect money and professionals who actually know how to work with both the dog and the owners.
Bucks was that difference.
We got our boy back with a solid foundation and noticeably better behavior, but just as importantly, WE came away more confident in how to work with him. We still have five refresher sessions to complete, and I genuinely look forward to continuing to work with this team and I know my boy will too.
The moment that really got me, though, happened at pickup. Our pup had apparently become particularly attached to one of the younger trainers. That trainer came in ON HIS DAY OFF, completely on his own, just to say goodbye and wish our boy luck.
As a dog mom, that one got me. 🥹 It was also incredibly reassuring to know that while our dog was away from us, he wasn’t just another dog on the training schedule. Someone had genuinely formed a bond with him.
That said…don’t get TOO attached to my baby, sir. 😂❤️
I also have to mention something that speaks to Nicole’s character as a business owner. Once she learned we were military, she let us know they offer a military/first responder discount and applied it. We hadn’t asked and didn’t even know it existed. We were already prepared to pay the original amount. Board and train is an investment in yourself and the life you share with your dog, so that unexpected honesty and consideration meant a lot to us.
The transparency, communication, professionalism, and almost family like care Bucks gave our boy are what earned the five stars from me. Based on our experience so far, I would absolutely recommend them and would choose them again.
Nicole is a rockstar in this field, and the team has been fantastic. We thank y’all! 🐾😂

My wife and I bought an eight week old goldendoodle. She was cute and friendly and very high energy. We knew right away we needed help training her to listen and obey our commands. Research lead us to Buck's dog training. We sent our baby, Ella, to Buck's for their 2 week traing program, and the transformation was miraculous. Now we can truely enjoy having Ella as part of our family and know she is happy and safe. Thank you to all the awesome folks at Buck's dog traing.

Absolutely amazing experience. NIcole and her entire staff are incredible start to finish and send you updates and videos every day that your puppy is with them. They took our very unruly golden retriever puppy and gave us back a sweet, well behaved boy who is much happier and safer now after their wonderful program. They spent time with our family making sure that every family member was able to use the commands and understood the training and offer support/refreshers after the training to make sure you and your pup don’t fall into old habits. And most importantly, every person on this team genuinely loves dogs- they treated our Winston with so much care- every video we received was of a happy boy with his tail wagging and a smile. Would recommend Bucks to anyone who is looking for dog training!!
