Proven Dog Training Methods for Lasting Obedience
At Best Buddy Dog Training, we're not here to bribe your dog with treats or rely on flashy gizmos. Instead, we focus on building a rock-solid bond based on trust, respect, and clear communication. It's simple: when your dog looks to you as the leader, obedience becomes a breeze. (And yes, this means no more embarrassing leash tug-of-wars or doggie tantrums.)
Training You to Be the Best Dog Whisperer
Our secret? It's not just about training your dog; it's about training YOU to communicate like a pro. Dogs are smart—once you speak their language, you’ll see the magic happen. No treats, no dominance games, just you leading the pack with ease. Before you know it, your dog will be strutting alongside you in perfect harmony, not because they *have to* but because they *want to*.
Balanced Corrections for Calm, Respectful Pups
We believe in fair, gentle, and balanced corrections. Think of them as the doggy equivalent of a gentle nudge in the right direction—no harsh tactics, just effective boundaries. For example, if your dog goes all *Cujo* during a walk, we’ll handle it with a firm but calm correction. If they simply forgot how to ‘heel,’ we’ll address that with a lighter touch. Our method is all about clear communication and mutual respect, so your dog learns to be obedient and calm without stress or fear.
Whether you’re in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, or New York, we’ve got you covered with top-notch in-home and board-and-train programs.
Who you are to your dog is EVERYTHING...

How nice to walk down the street with my dog trotting slightly behind me on a loose leash.

We tried 4 different training styles with no results. This investment has been well worth it.
