Dog Training in Rhode Island – Personalized & Effective
Transform Your Dog’s Behavior with Best Buddy Dog Training
If you’re searching for trusted dog training in Rhode Island, Best Buddy Dog Training is here to help. We provide professional, results-driven dog obedience training in Rhode Island that builds a strong bond between you and your dog—without relying on harsh tools, gimmicks, or medication.
Why Choose Best Buddy Dog Training?
Unlike many dog trainers in Rhode Island who only focus on teaching basic commands like “sit” or “stay,” our approach goes deeper. We help you understand your dog’s mindset and show you how to communicate through leadership, trust, and affection. The result? A calmer, happier, and more obedient dog that responds naturally to you.
Life-Changing Obedience Training – Right at Home
Our in-home dog training in Rhode Island is tailored to your lifestyle and your dog’s unique needs. We focus on a few powerful exercises that transform behavior almost immediately. For example we show you how to teach your dog to:
- Follow: Your dog walks calmly 3–6 feet behind you, promoting focus and balance.
- Go On: Your dog calmly moves away and disengages when asked, giving you control of space.
- Down/Stay: Your dog relaxes and stays in place for up to an hour, even with distractions.
Most clients notice a dramatic improvement after just the first session.
Obedience Through Leadership, Not Force
True obedience isn’t about domination, bribery, or constant corrections—it’s about leadership. We teach you how to become the calm, confident leader your dog naturally wants to follow. This creates reliable obedience whether you’re at home, outside, or in distracting environments.
No Harsh Tools. No Meds. Just Real Results.
Many frustrated dog owners in Rhode Island come to us after spending thousands on dog training classes or even being told to medicate their dogs with Prozac. We believe that’s not the answer. Our proven, humane training methods address problem behaviors—such as pulling, jumping, chasing, or running off—without drugs, shock collars, or yelling.

Dog Board And Train 'Boot Camp' in Rhode Island
Some dogs are more difficult, aggressive, and/or the problems have persisted and developed so that the best option is to send the dog away for boot camp. Our boot camp board and train program is unique because your dog will live with and work around our pack of (well-trained, well-behaved) dogs as well as living among and working around other animals. Instead of a kennel environment, your dog will be living in our trainer’s home and learning throughout the day instead of limited half-hour session once or twice per day. Visit our dog board and train page for more information.
