Found Chicago Boarding & Training Center

This place has had such an unbelievable impact on my family. I can’t fully describe what it’s like to have your home be run by your dog’s anxiety for years and then to all of a sudden get control back so here’s a list of things I wish I knew before we started with Found: -behaviors they dealt with: resource guarding, leash reactivity, nipping and lunging at anyone who comes into our home, only going on walks if two people are with her -she was over 3 years old when we go her in the 4 week program -the ecollars worried me so much before and now I can see how much happier she is because she is actually able to cope with her anxiety. This is not fear-based learning. -be prepared to change your behavior and work with the trainer -yes, this is worth every penny -she is the same stubborn, loving, dramatic little weirdo we love so dearly -this did not cure her anxiety but it gave us tools to deal with it -she wouldn’t eat when she first got there and that scared the bejesus out of me but that was just a behavior and she’s fine Thank you again for everything!

Our dog Gibson just completed the Adventure program and we are so glad we decided to have him go through the training! First of all, every staff member is amazing. I have full confidence that Gibson loved everyone he interacted with while he was at training. They are very responsive to questions, and the training videos were really helpful in understanding what he was learning week-to-week. Our in-person sessions with Anna have been amazing and have given us the tools to keep working with Gibson on our own to reinforce his learning. We love that Found provides ongoing support after the program is completed with additional training sessions and drop-in classes. We are so happy for all the progress Gibson has made so far and we're so excited to keep working with him to see what else he can learn! I'd highly recommend Found if you are looking for a training facility for your pup.
