We joked that we were taking Porter to sleepaway camp while we were away. He came home happier and calmer than ever before, with the new skill of occupying himself with a toy. The staff are fantastic and clearly love what they do and each furry face that they come across.

So happy I found this place, and so is Mack. I had been looking at places to bring my high energy Golden on days I work longer hours. It took me coming home to Mack eating through his crate and half of my house until I realized he needed somewhere to expend some of that energy. He comes home well exercised, and my walls are thanking me :)

Premier Dog Training has been a lifesaver for my family and our pups! I am VERY particular about how my dogs are cared for and upon seeing the facilities at Premier and meeting the staff that would be caring for them, I could see the genuine love that they all have for any breed, including my two very spoiled little guys. Going to daycare has done wonders for their socialization as one would hide behind me when around other dogs and the other was just a grumpy guy, unsure of anything else with four legs! We will also be using the training services they offer. THANK YOU to everyone on the Premier team for taking such good care of my boys!!

I found this place to b excellent for my dog while I was on vacation. She received training while there & it has helped with her obedience. I could keep up with her on Instagram as well as see the other dogs & everyone seemed to have a smile on their face. Though I couldn't take the tour, my sister could & she said the facilities where the dogs were housed were wonderful. I cant say enough good things about the staff. They were so helpful & friendly & explained their training methods so one could understand.

We rescued our Ellie at the end of January and we immediately realized she had anxiety problems and could not be left alone in the house (even in a crate). I called Premier Dog Training desperately and spoke to a very patience lady who gave me advice on what we could try before taking other types of actions. We eventually agreed to send Ellie to Doggie Day Care where she would be watched and could interact with other dogs. It was one of the best decisions we made as it meant she was in a safe environment surrounded by people who love dogs and tons of dogs! Ellie has her favorite handlers while at doggie day care, and I can see the care and love they have for any dog that gets dropped off there.
Ellie became less anxious to be home alone as the weeks/months went on, but she was still a loosey-goosey, silly, not-focused dog. You would give her a command and she was do it if she liked or not at all. Off-leash was not an option as she would run in the opposite direction of us.
A few months later, we decided to send her to 3 weeks boot camp. Another one of the best decisions we’ve made. When we dropped her off, we spoke with one of the trainers who completed an intake form so they can understand what areas they need to focus on with our dog. When we picked her up on her last day, she was a different dog. She was dialed in and focused. She can do the commands on first ‘order’. If she didn’t, we would re-inforce the techniques that we were taught to correct her. She is very good with the basic commands of sit and lay-down. She is still working very hard on stay and wait. We have worked with her in a public setting of stay while dropping her leash beside her and she does well until you walk ‘too far’ in her opinion, then she walks towards you. She is much better on walks now and does not zig-zag. She knows she has her range and will slow down if she walks too far ahead. After her training, we were given a prong collar, e-collar, and a new longer/stronger leash. We were given a lesson before we went home with Ellie on how to use our new tools. We work on her commands every night to re-inforce what she has learned and it has and will continue to pay off.
We would definitely recommend Premier Dog Training for your dog day care or training needs! They are kind, knowledgeable and can deliver results!
