Bandit’s Buddies LLC is a dog training business based in the Raleigh, Apex-Cary-Durham area that offers personalized training sessions tailored to each dog’s breed, age, and behavior needs. They focus on avoiding one-size-fits-all methods, emphasizing faster results and ongoing support after sessions. Their training programs cover puppies, adolescents, adults, and senior dogs, with specialized courses for leash pulling, stubborn behaviors, reactivity, and AKC Canine Good Citizen preparation. In addition to training, they provide dog walking, daycare, boarding, homemade treats, and professional dog photography services. Their approach is rooted in understanding individual dog personalities, inspired by their own Shiba Inu, Bandit, and designed to treat every dog like family. They require up-to-date vaccinations and offer flexible scheduling to fit owner lifestyles.

They also offer boarding and daycare with attention to exercise and comfort, daily walks with photo updates, and custom-made training treats and ice cream treats. Photography sessions include in-home or on-location shoots with edited prints, and they host dog birthday parties with cake, goody bags, and professional photos. All services are available within 40 miles of Raleigh, NC.

Accomplishments

Bandit’s Buddies was founded by a dog owner with personal experience training multiple breeds, including Shiba Inus, labs, retrievers, and rescues. Their training methodology was developed through research into breed-specific behaviors and has grown from serving family and friends to the broader Raleigh-Durham community. Charlie, a 4-month-old poodle, was named Bandit’s Buddy of the Month, highlighting their engagement with clients’ dogs.
