Before we brought Dixie to MBF, our walks with Dixie were a real challenge. Dixie would pull us around the neighborhood. After spending two weeks at MBF, our Dixie was a joy to take for a walk, no more pulling! She is more obedient and pays attention. We will continue our training here. more

I brought my pug in for training with Bryan. Typical issues housebreaking, jumping, running out the door ect. She stayed for the 2 week training. (it was very hard to leave her) When I picked her up I was very impressed. She was like a totally different dog. Bryan is so sweet with her she loves him very much. She gets so excited when we turn in the parking lot. I highly recommend Bryan and Man's Best Friend. more

I rescued Waki from a puppy mill at 6 months old. She was afraid of human contact and would not be around people or a leash without shaking. In three weeks MBF had her doing everything I thought was impossible. Now Waki is obeying, protecting and loving people. more

My Mommy and Daddy thought I could use some training because apparently I could be a real booger. more

Thank you, Man?s Best Friend for training Pete. Pete was 8 weeks old when we got him, He was not potty trained and chewed on everything and everyone. Now he is totally house and crate trained. He gets so excited to show off all of the commands he has learned. We are pleased with his obedience and look forward to going far in his protection training. He is still a puppy and we expect great things in the future. more

Since Holly?s effective training date at Man?s Best Friend, she has seen tremendous improvement with her domestication. Trainers, Terry and Patrick, have been nothing less than outstanding when it comes down to proper training, obedience, and protection. Every week there is something new and interesting to learn which benefits not only Holly, but my wife and I also. The most effective training received thus far is Holly coherent ability to not only understand and comprehend but an extreme apparent desire to listen and follow directions given by me and my wife Terry or Patrick. Holly is always excited about going to see them and loves to interact with them be in training or playtime. With this in mind, my wife and I would like to not only to extend our thanks but would also like to congratulate these two fine and extraordinary men on a job well done. Thanks Terry and Patrick. And as one can see, Holly is always ready to come to Man?s Best Friend. more

We are very grateful to Man?s Best Friend and most especially, our trainer Laurie for helping us with our giant, rowdy puppy, Harley. When we adopted him in December 2008, we knew we were going to need help teaching him puppy manners and basic obedience, along with curbing his non-stop mouthing/play biting. We were hesitant to leave him for two weeks so soon after adopting him, but Laurie kept us up to date on his development during that time. When we picked him up, we were extremely pleased to see the progress he had made ? he could heel, sit, ?down? and ?stay? on command. We attend follow-up lessons on a weekly basis (during which Laurie ?trains? my husband and me regarding how to properly handle our dog), and Harley cannot wait until Saturday afternoon when he gets to see his ?buddy? Laurie. While they are more expensive than your typical PetSmart obedience class, it?s well worth it given the outstanding results, especially if you have a dog with behavior issues (chewing, play biting, excessive barking, housebreaking, etc.). We used a mainstream obedience class with our previous dog, and after 12 weeks, he ?graduated? knowing not a single command. Any suggestion that the trainers at Man?s Best Friend ?hurt? or are ?mean to? dogs is ludicrous. I have seen both of their current trainers in action - with my own large, rowdy dog and others (even bigger and more obnoxious than mine) - and I cannot imagine two more patient, soft-spoken, dog-loving people exist anywhere on the face of the earth. Harley LOVES Laurie, and he dances around in a circle like a little goofball every time he sees her. I work around the corner from their facility, drive by it several times a day, and see dogs getting exercised all the time ? dogs are not locked in kennels all day, starved to death and forced to eat their own excrement as some have intimated below. If they mistreated dogs in their care in any way, then my dog (and every dog I see going in there) would not be grinning, dancing around in excitement, and straining their leashes to get inside. We have been extremely happy with our experience and I would gladly recommend Man?s Best Friend. Pros: Use positive reinforcement; highly experienced trainers more

When we ""adopted"" our dog 18 months ago, we knew immediately that the best thing we could do would be to enroll her in the program at Man's Best Friend, where our other dogs had been trained. We missed her while she was there for 2 weeks, but were very happy when we picked her up. She had been well cared for while she was there and was a happy, playful puppy who now knew the basic commands. We continue to take her back for ""maintenance"" group classes and she can't wait to see her trainer, Laurie, and the other dogs that are in her class. I would highly recommend that anyone who has a dog or is considering getting a dog make this commitment. It is well worth the time and money. more
