Paul C. - Raleigh

I booked a private lesson hoping to work on my Corgi puppy’s nipping and some obedience training. The Trainer was very informative and helpful throughout the whole session and offered training advice I wouldn’t have thought of! They were also very kind and gentle with my puppy. Would highly recommend for puppy training sessions.

  Breanda T. - Holly Springs

My sweet girl loves people and other dogs, but she’s quite fear-reactive. She really needs some serious confidence building, and that’s where the Canine Training Co. has been a game changer! After just a few lessons, my Dani is starting to realize that the world isn’t so scary. Honestly, I think I’ve learned just as much, if not more, than she has! I’m so grateful I chose the Canine Training Co. to help Dani work through her fears - its been incredible!

Lizzy C. - Apex

Best money we've spent on our dogs. Repeat customer (third dog just finished training). I know there are a lot of options out there. But, I've worked with four other trainers through the years and now I will not take our dogs anywhere else. I have had such a great experience .10/10 recommend!
