Testimonials

I brought my two babies, Sox & Sadie, for much-needed training because they were getting into some pretty bad fights. Well, six months later, and not one single fight has occurred since we started training. Everything else was a huge plus. They are both reactive dogs, so they pull on walks, but otherwise, the training has been a huge help and success.

Huge shout-out to Morgan. She trained Sox and Sadie every day and helped us with all our parent-teacher conferences; she has been so helpful.

Everyone who works there is so friendly and made the process so easy.

Sox and Sadie have one class left and will be graduating afterward.

I am so thankful they got our dogs to love each other and would recommend this place to anyone.

My pup, Tater Tot loves coming here for training and fun! Tater is a corgi and can be stubborn (listens when it’s convenient for him) and requires time to burn off excess energy. Dog Training & Grooming Downers Grove has significantly helped with both. Tater has been coming here for the past 3 months and I have seen a significant difference in obedience and he comes home pooped (much appreciated sometimes)! The trainers are energetic and very knowledgeable. The one-on-one sessions made me realize how important it is not only for my dog to be trained, but also me! We will continue to come here for training/daycare in the future! I’d recommend this facility to anyone and their pet.

I took my puppy (Alex) to train here and it’s been fantastic. Everyone’s been so great, and Alex is doing loads better with listening and jumping, which is what I was looking for. Josh as his trainer (for the parent/teacher conferences) was totally awesome and fun to work with, but everyone there is great overall. They all seem to be fantastic with the dogs. Alex always comes home happy but exhausted (see pictures). Training was done from October 2024 to Jan 2025.

I also went on a trip in the middle of the training. I did home boarding and Alex went home with Braylon from Jan 2 to Jan 13, I got great updates with pictures, Alex seem to enjoy his time with him and I could stay relaxed knowing that he was well taken care of.

Definitely worth the money.

The team offers expert, compassionate training tailored to individual needs, with personalized one-on-one sessions and parent-teacher conferences to involve owners in the process.
