Denver Dream Dog is top notch. Dan & his family are very welcoming and take great care of our Bernadoodle. She always comes back happy. Dan has been very accommodating when flights have been delayed and we can’t get there at the planned time.

About Denver Dream Dog
I specialize in our Board & Train program for puppies, but I also offer Premium Boarding for both puppies AND puppy-loving adult dogs! Your dog will live with me in my home, where we focus daily on carefully selected training goals. The work is demanding, but the environment is fun, with new playmates to romp around with under shady trees. At night, we sleep in the same room so the pups feel cozy and safe. When you pick up your pooch at the end of the program, you receive a free transfer session so you can use your pup's new skills immediately! Does your dog have a few bad habits you could live without? Try an Online Behavior Modification session! It’s easy, flexible, effective and my service area is anywhere you are!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I have a dog that is exhibiting some sort of separation anxiety? He refuses to let anyone but me walk him, if anyone else tries he pees or expresses his anal glands. amongst other things, is this something you have seen, any tips on how to break it?
Hi Taylor! So sorry you are going thru this with your dog. Sounds like time for a game of Open Bar/Closed Bar -- a classic which teaches your dog that good things happen when new people approach. 1. Figure out what your dog loves more than anything in this world. A particular treat? A certain toy? Let's say it's CHICKEN. 2. Simply sit with your dog, feeding him chicken, as the dogwalker stands across the street. Just let your dog watch and eat. 3. Over time, have your walker move slowly, indirectly, but gradually closer. All the time you are shotgunning your dog delicious chicken and praising like crazy! 4. Next, have the walker move farther back. Oh no! The chicken dries up, and the praise stops. 5. Repeat -- the walker approaches, treats and happy talk. The walker moves away, treats disappear. 6. Over time, you will be close enough that your walker can walk beside you. Continue the food, but eventually your walker will take over feeding (and the leash).

We love Denver Dream Dog and would never take our doodle anywhere else! Our dog Lambeau is so happy and well cared for while we are out of town. He comes home happy and exhausted and is always so excited to go back!

We chose Dan to train our golden retriever, Mogul, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, Dan showed exceptional knowledge and a deep understanding of dog behavior. He formed a strong bond with Mogul, which was clear in the care and attention he provided throughout the training process. Dan customized the training sessions to meet Mogul's specific needs, focusing on the commands we prioritized. Since completing the training, we've seen significant improvements in Mogul’s behavior. What stood out most was Dan’s ability to teach me how to effectively communicate with Mogul. He provided clear instructions and practical advice that was easy to apply at home. The training sessions were not only productive but also enjoyable for both Mogul and me. We love boarding Mogul with Dan because he continues to use the same commands that he taught during the training, ensuring consistency in Mogul's behavior. Dan is also incredibly flexible and always willing to work with our schedule, making the entire experience seamless. I highly recommend Dan to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated dog trainer. He has made a tremendous difference in our lives, and I’m incredibly grateful for his help.
Our pup Rowie loves boarding with Dan. He is always excited to be dropped off and we love knowing we can relax on vacation because Rowie is well taken care of.
I’m so grateful to have found Denver Dream Dog! Dan and Holly treat my dog as their own when we are away. I love that she is not kept crated in a kennel all day and is free to run around outside just as she would when we are at home. An added touch is they send videos of her while we are gone which my kids love to watch. I would highly recommend!
