ChicagoLand Dog Training

We enrolled both of our dogs, Shelby and Tinker, in the “Stay and Train” obedience program at Chicagoland Dog Training—and the results have been fantastic. From start to finish, Nick, Lauren, and their entire team showed just how passionate and knowledgeable they are when it comes to working with dogs. Their training approach is thoughtful, effective, and clearly rooted in a deep understanding of dog behaviors. Shelby and Tinker now respond to their commands with confidence and consistency, and it’s clear they actually enjoy doing so! We truly can’t say enough good things about the experience. If you’re looking for people who care deeply about your dogs and know how to bring out the best in them, this is the place.

After sending my dog Arthur to board and train, I would recommend Chicagoland Dog Training to anyone. Nick, Lauren and staff not only taught him his commands effectively, but they truly went above and beyond to make sure he had a comfortable and fun experience. Arthur is a rescue, and while I don’t know much about his background, I do know his training has provided him a huge boost in confidence and independence. He is an expert in walking on the leash now, and generally has much better manners! I am so optimistic about the progress Arthur and I will continue to make.

I cannot say enough good things about the team at ChicagoLand Dog Training. Nick, Lauren, and Lucy are amazing. They helped me (as a new, first time dog owner) and my puppy, Gromit, more than I thought possible. Gromit and I are in such a better place now. Walks are more enjoyable, he is safer, and life is just better with my dog. There is a sign in their office that says a well-trained dog is a happy dog. (I think it also makes for a happy dog parent!) They were willing to answer ALL of my questions. They provided encouragement along with their training. As a last endorsement, Gromit gets super excited whenever we pull up to school. He loves to spend time with them.

My 2 year old Goldendoodle Hanz had an amazing experience thanks to the great staff at Chicagoland Dog Training! Nick, Lauren, Sara and Deanna did an amazing job with him, teaching him things I didn’t know he was capable of! He’s so easy to handle now and I have so much more confidence in him. The staff is incredibly friendly and keeps you a part of your furry family members journey with text and videos throughout their time there. Hanz even celebrated his second birthday there and they sent me a picture of him with some birthday gear on. The go home session you have with them when it’s time to pick up your pup is really informative and they’re patient with you as you too have a few things to learn. I can’t recommend them enough, you honestly won’t be disappointed they’re just absolutely incredible! Thank you Nick, Lauren, Sara, and Deanna for all your hard work!
