FirstBarkMoney well spent. Wasn’t sure if my dog was going to do well with the bird hunting training due to his lack of confidence and being a little timid. But he ended up loving it and he had a huge turnaround. The Trainer Orlyn was a great trainer for him and was helpful with answering my questions when I had them. Thank you.

From the start of the training program to the end of the training program was a great experience. I was always up to date with the training and status of my dog. I would highly recommend Utah Bird Dog Training. I look forward to taking another dog to them in the future! Thanks to everyone at UBDT!
Tyce has trained several of my dogs, different breeds, different use. Always done a great job! Highly recommend
I found Tyce and his team to be professional and dedicated. They worked thoroughly to help my Brittany develop into a great upland gun dog. Looking forward to getting her into the field and having some real good experiences with her. Thank you, Utah Bird Dog Training!

We took our almost 3-year-old black lab, Kobe To training for obedience. We just picked him up a few days ago and can’t believe how big of a change there has been with his demeanor and with him listening to us. We are so happy and Ian, his trainer, was so good with communicating with us and teaching us the commands. Would 100% recommend this to anyone and strangers have already commented about how well behaved Kobe is.
