								Abby did such a great job with our puppy, after 2 weeks he’s no longer jumping and knocking our kids down. Such a great place and wonderful experience, worth the money!

 					Elisa did a great job training and boarding my boy Bernie. At 5 months he walks past exciting distractions like running kids and other dogs, he comes when I call him, and he can hold a down-stay for about as long as you want, among other things. More importantly Bernie has a great baseline for learning new things and responding to correction. Elisa and Dan were both great communicators and the entire operation at Dog Training Now is clean and professional. Thanks everyone!

 					We sent or dog Hunter there for the 26 day board and train. Everything was outstanding. Taking him out and about now is so much easier for him and us. Abby kept us up to date everyday...including weekends...on what they were working on along with pics. She answered all our questions promptly. On pick up day she went thru everything he learned and taught us how to keep it up. We also followed along on the facebook page....they post alot of pics of the dogs daily.The best part is he came back with his same personality but with manners now.. Dan had reassured me this would be the case during the interview. Sending him here was a complete game changer.

 					Our Millie did the 28 board and train and we are so happy with her results. We were sent nightly messages, from her wonderful trainer Abby, about her day and we were also able to see her progress through daily videos. We also were given the guidance we needed to help Millie to continue to succeed with her training. So very grateful we sent Millie to Dog Training Now.

 					I cannot say enough great things about Dog Training Now! Dan and his team are truly second to none. From the moment we started Teddy in their puppy day camp, I knew we had found the right place. When he was old enough, he went through their two-week training program, and the progress he made was incredible. He still goes back for graduate refresher training, and he gets so excited every time he sees the trainers—it’s clear how much he loves being there. The facility is immaculate and always spotless, which shows the level of care and professionalism they put into everything. Most importantly, the trainers have a true passion for what they do and an obvious love for dogs. I always leave with a happy, well-behaved pup and a big smile on my face. Thank you, Dan, and the entire Dog Training Now team—you’ve made such a difference for Teddy and for us as dog owners!

 					We had a great experience. Our dog Wally is a new guy after going to training! We have two small kids so we were feeling a little desperate for help and we got the help we needed! Honestly the upkeep of his skills doesn’t even seem that hard. He has the foundations in place now and we just need to continue. We completed the 2 week program. Thank you Dog Training Now!

  I love this place, Arthur has learned so much. He is an older dog with not much history to him, other than he came from downstate Illinois. He didn't understand life in the city and was scared and very reactive to so many situations, he has gained so much confidence. Dog Training Now is more than just a bunch of Trainers; they truly want your dog to be successful and take them home when u do the Board and Train. Arthur continued to learn even at home and with JJ and others throughout his 12 days. Thank you JJ for loving him as much as I do. I highly recommend DTN, no matter what their age they can help your pup be a better dog!!

 					I just recently completed the 10 day Dog Training program with my older and definitely very reactive dog Arthur. I can't say enough good things about Dog Training Now in Hoffman Estates. They are worth every penny that I spent to get him trained. He has come so far from when I got him as a reactive, barking rescue to being a graduate from his 10 day program today. He is a wonderful work in progress...and has grown into a much smarter and more confident dog. Thank you JJ and everyone else at Dog Training Now for being the quintessential place to take your dog for training, The money I wasted on pet food store programs and other Dog Training places that encouraged only electric shock collars...I could've spent applying that towards training at Dog Training Now. It's worth the money!! I'll be back with my other dog Rosco and tell everyone how great you are for dogs of all ages, breeds and challenges!! Arthur thanks you... and so do I.

 					We cannot thank DTN enough for what they have done for our Golden, Jovie! We did the 20 day training and it was the best choice we made for her (and our family). Dan was incredible at explaining the system and getting to know us and our dog and we had some incredible trainers who really made sure she was getting what she needed, but were also so patient with us when teaching us all how to be working with her. Special shout out to Bill who had our girl the whole second half of the training program. She was so happy to go with him every single day and we are thankful for all of his willingness to help us with our more specific needs with Jovie! We look forward to keeping this relationship with DTN.

 					We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Dog Training Now in Hoffman Estates. Our boxer puppy, Mija, went through both the 10-Day Puppy Day Camp and the 20-Day Day Training program, and we’ve also used their boarding services several times. Every trainer and staff member, from Dan and Melissa (the amazing owners) to the entire team, has shown true professionalism and care. What really stands out is how they treat every dog like their own. The trainers don’t just work with the dogs; they also equip us as owners with the skills and knowledge to reinforce training long-term. Mija started with them at just 3 months old, and now at 6 months, we’ve seen a huge transformation. Sure, she still has those classic “puppy energy” moments, but thanks to what we’ve all learned, we know how to help her reset and stay on track. Dog Training Now has truly been a game changer for our family, and we’re incredibly grateful for the support and guidance from this passionate team. Highly recommend!

 					Amazing dog training facility. The staff are very caring and professional. Dan is extremely knowledgeable and recommended the perfect course of our Ruger. He completed the 4 wk daily drop in, on leash and off leash course and he is a well mannered 6 month puppy now. Highly recommend this program.

 					5 stars- our dog just finished the 2nd half of the 4 weeks program! The staff is very nice and keeps you up to date daily with their training! They do field trips on the weekend to places that would enforce their training and appear to care for them as if they were their own dogs! At their graduation they go over every thing in detail so that you can continue working with your dog to enforce what they have learned!

 					A great shoutout to this dog training facility. My puppy learned so many great things but most importantly she loved coming each and everyday! The trainers were always so nice and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for a better dog training program 😊 Thanks again!

 					No need to look any further if you need dog training assistance. My Gertie was adopted from a shelter about a year ago. Although sweet had displayed leash reactivity which made her hard to manage and difficult to socialize with other dogs. The whole staff at Dog Training Now had a tremendous roll in correcting that. I opted for the 10day daily training. At the end of each day both Gertie and I did a refresh of that day's learning activity. There is no way I can specify which trainer stood out because they all helped with Gertie and they were all equally fantastic. Highly recommend them, start today and set up a free consultation. You won't regret it!!!

 					I took my 7 month old puppy there for the 4 week off leash training. She is great on a leash and has great skills compared to a lot of puppies I see. I'm glad I found this team! They even having boarding which I love. I feel much more comfortable leaving my dog with a team she's bonded with training vs random daycares. 10 out of 10 recommend.
