We had a couple of our dogs go for the 2 week on site training and I couldn't be happier. Both dogs are doing great and responding to training amazingly. Melissa was also great in training the family. She spent personal time with all of us (young children as well) and explained how dogs perceive their environment and how best to interact with them. It's very helpful understanding how dogs think when applying the training. Melissa was also able to adjust her training program to accommodate an adult with a disability. That personal touch means a lot. Thank you.

From the owner: If you’re looking for the ultimate dog training program, look no further than Ridgeside K9 New…read moreEngland! Our team of certified professional dog trainers work hard to create custom programs that fit every dog, and every budget; from private training lessons to boarding and training. Most of us lead pretty hectic lives, work long hours, have numerous commitments, and often don’t have extra time to devote to the hundreds of repetitions and 24/7 accountability that successful dog training requires. You would much rather be spending the time you do have exploring, having fun, making memories, or relaxing with your canine best friend! That’s where our Board and Train dog training services come in. Our trainers will create a unique training program to fit you and your dog's specific needs to achieve the training goals. All travel, treats, care, training, tools, and lifetime guarantee of communication with your assigned trainer is included in each of our programs. At the end of training, your trainer will return the dog back to you where they will not only teach you everything your dog has newly learned, but also how to continue with training in everyday aspects within your own home. Our motivation is to see you communicate, connect, and thrive with your dog!

We've had the absolute best experience with Dave and his wonderful team. From the very beginning,…read moreDave patiently walked us through his process, clearly managed expectations, and created a safe, nurturing environment for our Jingles. During the three weeks we were apart, he shared daily updates--complete with training videos and photos--which made us feel truly connected to Jingles' progress and growth every step of the way. Dave thoughtfully tailors each session to your dog's needs and leaves no question unanswered, putting you completely at ease knowing your puppy is in the most capable hands. Jingles now has a true home away from home, and we feel grateful to have found trusted partners in her upbringing. After all, it really does take a village!

We recently adopted a new puppy (Nala) to keep our 3 year old Golden doodle (Augie) company…read more Although the two dogs are siblings from different litters, they didn't immediately take to being together. Unlike Augie, who was always sweet and extremely mellow even as a puppy, Nala bit us in the face, barked, destroyed things in our home and terrorized Augie to the extent that he would run away from her. We weren't sure we could keep her because she was so badly behaved and seemed untrainable. In the span of 3 weeks, David transformed Nala from a challenging puppy into a dream puppy. She obeys all the commands, walks off leash in our wooded neighborhood, sleeps hours later than when she left and most importantly she is able to play well with Augie who now seeks her out and willingly allows her even to sleep in his own bed. David sent dozens of videos so we could watch her while she was in training and learn the language she was learning from David. He kept in contact and was even able to drop her off and meet our other dog for a walk with Nala. Without Massachusetts Dog Training, we would likely have given our wonderful puppy away and never realized what a gem we had. David helped to uncover Nala's true potential and helped us to realize how smart, sweet and special she is. We will be forever grateful for his wisdom, expertise and love for our Nala.

At the time that I contacted pawlite best friends, my Giant schnauzer was just over a year old. A…read moreGiant schnauzer is similar to German shepherds or Dobermans in that they are great dogs, but require skilled, confident leadership to be the best they can be. If you are like me, and thought that you were a skilled, confident leader who was doing everything right for your dog, and then got to a point we're you started to feel like you were missing something and as a result had lost a certain degree of control, then I highly recommend contacting pawlite. Keep in mind-calling someone to help you is exactly that. She will train you how to train your dog. You have to come in humble, with an open mind, and be ready to work. We were addressing reactivity specifically. We saw instant results. Same day. Amazing. From there, you must take what you learn from pawlite and apply it consistently-meaning daily at minimum and multiple times per day when possible. You will guaranteed see a major positive change in your friend if you apply the techniques that pawlite teaches you. Highly recommend. Instant results. Clear, concise confident training that is never rude or condescending.

Since joining the Loyalty and Legacy family, Georgie has attended 1:1 sessions and school weekly. At school, he goes on pack walks, practices skills, and plays appropriately with dogs of all sizes. We have seen his confidence increase and we are able to take him anywhere in the community; most recently, he went out to dinner for Paws on the Patio followed by trips out for ice cream. Everywhere he has gone, people and other dogs have been able to approach without incident. We are extremely pleased with the services Jade and her team provide. Bucho is Georgie's favorite and walks with Dee are a hit.
