American Canine Training is a dog training business based in Las Vegas that offers private in-home training, group classes, board and train programs, and dog daycare and boarding services. Their primary goal is to reduce dog surrenders by building harmonious relationships between dogs and their families using positive reinforcement methods. They provide training in Summerlin, Henderson, North Las Vegas, and surrounding areas, with group classes held at Gardens Park in Summerlin, The Green in Town Square, and other local venues. Their unique “Board & Train” program allows busy owners to drop off their dogs for intensive training, followed by a session to teach owners how to maintain the skills. They also offer dog daycare and play school, where dogs socialize and receive training during the day. Additional services include Canine Good Citizen, Therapy Dog, and Service Dog preparation, as well as Red Cross-certified Canine First Aid & CPR classes. Their facility is licensed, insured, and staffed by trainers with over 20 years of experience.

Carol Frisby, the owner and head trainer, has trained over 3,000 dogs and previously trained other dog trainers for a national pet franchise. She emphasizes communication between dogs and humans and tailors lessons to individual needs without requiring expensive packages. Training focuses on real-world proofing in parks, stores, and markets to ensure reliability in distracting environments.

They offer free seminars and training tips to help owners understand canine behavior and prevent common issues like barking, jumping, leash pulling, and separation anxiety.
