FirstBarkAbby did such a great job with our puppy, after 2 weeks he’s no longer jumping and knocking our kids down. Such a great place and wonderful experience, worth the money!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do the dogs have play time to learn to socialize with other dogs?
They sure do! That was a huge benefit and big draw for us. The dogs spend a ton of time together and learn in a great supervised environment

can you guys train a psychiatric service dog?
They don't offer any service dog training courses but their obedience training courses will help your dog on the way to becoming a service dog. Your dog will need a basic understanding of obedience skills before getting any service dog certifications.

how much dose this traing cost?
The cost of training depends on which program you choose. To figure out which program is best for your dog, sign up for a free consultation. You bring your dog and meet with a trainer to discuss what you're looking to get out of training, and which program would best suit you and your dog's needs.

Elisa did a great job training and boarding my boy Bernie. At 5 months he walks past exciting distractions like running kids and other dogs, he comes when I call him, and he can hold a down-stay for about as long as you want, among other things. More importantly Bernie has a great baseline for learning new things and responding to correction. Elisa and Dan were both great communicators and the entire operation at Dog Training Now is clean and professional. Thanks everyone!
Dog training NOW has now trained 3 of my dogs. You don't return if you're not a happy camper. Great facility, location, staff and the place is spotless..can't ask for more than that!

We sent or dog Hunter there for the 26 day board and train. Everything was outstanding. Taking him out and about now is so much easier for him and us. Abby kept us up to date everyday...including weekends...on what they were working on along with pics. She answered all our questions promptly. On pick up day she went thru everything he learned and taught us how to keep it up. We also followed along on the facebook page....they post alot of pics of the dogs daily.The best part is he came back with his same personality but with manners now.. Dan had reassured me this would be the case during the interview. Sending him here was a complete game changer.
