Testimonials
“I was very happy with our experience with Drew’s training classes. He was very patient with our hyperactive 4 month lab mix pup. Drew is gifted with dogs and gently commands their respect. After several weeks of classes Eli was performing all the basic commands, plus some I never thought you could train a dog to do. Best of all I was feeling much more confident and the whole family enjoyed our puppy more. I would highly recommend Drew’s Dogs to anyone.”

About the Trainer
Andrew Luginbuhl, owner of Drew’s Dogs of Ellington, has over 16 years of experience in obedience training, including training two Fidelco Guide Dog pups. He believes in making dogs a healthy and positive part of family life, regularly consulting with local veterinarians to ensure his methods and advice are up-to-date and correct.
Drew’s Dogs of Ellington emphasizes that pet ownership is a responsibility, not a luxury, and that every dog should have a job or purpose, even if it’s being a well-behaved family companion. Training aims to foster mutual understanding and respect between owner and pet, with owners being fully immersed in the process and often learning as much as their dogs.
Services include individualized obedience training sessions and a “Puppy Obedience Training Done for You” program where pups are trained in the trainer’s home, becoming crate-trained and house-broken by 6 months of age. The business also sells pups from their own litters.
