Testimonials
“Awesome place to bring your fur baby for training. Lee is a great and knowledgeable guy. He is extremely helpful with our dog, and we got excellent results. We also learned how to better communicate with our dog. Thanks again.”
– Robert J.Waterbury, CT
“5 stars isn’t enough! We have only great things to say about Clark’s Companion Dog Training. We have been dropping off our girl Rosie for day training with Lee, and what a difference it has made. She is much better behaved and calmer at the house now. He always gets back to us when we have a question, and has gone the extra mile to make sure we know what to do.”
– Mia S.Shelton, CT
“We were really impressed by the extent of training and the boarding offered during the board and train program. Our dogs received all day care and training, and came back to us in great shape. I think they were almost sad to leave!”
– Kyle B.Stamford, CT
