The staff (Dan, Allison, and JJ) were so incredibly helpful in getting our Siberian Husky Jake back up to speed from his previous puppy training! I thought he will stay in training for weeks and had forgotten his previous commands but he was able to execute all previous commands in 1 day. I could not believe it! Everyone is so helpful, friendly, and compassionate. Thank you so much! read less

Bjorn has come home a new dog. When we picked Bjorn up Bill spent over 2 hours with us. Answering any questions and giving us the foundation to continue emphasizing the training. This is the second dog that we’ve brought to Dog Training Now. 7 years ago we had put our Lab, Stashu, thru their board and train. Bill did a great job training Bjorn and you can really tell he loves what he does. Thank you Bill read less

I brought my 5 month old pup Cali in for obedience and then off lease training. It is a night and day difference with Cali when I got her back. No pulling on the leash makes taking her for a walk enjoyable and she listens to commands during the walk. I love the wait command they teach and Cali will sit at a door and wait for me to go out and tell her it is ok to come out. Living on a busy street this is very valuable command to have. The whole staff and trainers are excellent and care about your dog. They post updates during the day on Facebook and the trainer that takes them home at night and over the weekend will send updates to let you know how your dog is doing. Thanks to the whole staff for all the excellent work you do in training the dogs that come in. I want to say a special thanks to Elisa and Bill for working with and caring about Cali during her time there and look forward to having her back or any future dogs I get. read less

Dog Training Now provided direction for preparing for the experience. Maddy's Trainer Bill was wonderful. He provided me with updates and photos. Maddy will be scheduled for boarding days in the future. We boarded our dog Maddy for five days and four nights. Knowing that Maddy would attend day care and then stay overnight with her trainer Bill put our minds at ease. Bill met with me to review her specific needs. He sent us photos and an update every evening. We are grateful for the care and concern that was provided by Bill and the entire Dog Training staff. Joanne and Dan read less

Dan and his team are amazing. I can’t say enough good things about them. Jax is the best dog because of the skills and discipline taught at an early age at DTN. We just recently sent Jax for swimming too and I could not be happier for a new amenity that they now offer! read less

He did the 10 day training and I took him home at night. The pictures posted throughout the day made it enjoyable to see his progress and picking him up was always fun to learn what he did and see his skills! They were nervous my dog wasn’t going to get a lot out of it because he is 4 years old. But he is a completely different dog now! It’s been 2 weeks since we’ve finished the training and these are all the differences I’ve noticed: he does not pull on the leash, he doesn’t chase squirrels on walks, he sits and waits at every cross walk, inside he actually plays with his toys, and he overall seems much happier. The only reason I rated them 4/5 is because I am a teacher and start work very early. The drop off time of 7am made it very challenging for me to get my dog to training and then myself to work on time. If there was an option for 6:45am drop off with a fee, I would have paid that so I wouldnt have to worry about getting back to school! Overall such an amazing program! My dog will be coming back for daily lessons this summer! read less

Although I love the Shepherd part that Husky part had me on my last nerve. These are our shop dogs. In 4 weeks I watched the changes and Yes you have to work it with them so they do not forget. I LOVE YOU, DOG TRAINING NOW!!!! Why you ask? Well no more rushing the door to scare people, they do not pull me off my feet in a walk or take out their dad's bad shoulders anymore in addition to being able to walk them both (they are strong). The understanding of - place and the best is no more jumping and leaning on people. We also got to watch all the fun videos & see cute pictures (helped the new dad that couldn't live without his baby going to school-lol) I walked into my shop today without the dreaded running of the wolves. Come see them (we are literally within walking distance from their facility) the famous Minuteman Press Bristal and Tucker in Hoffman Estates! read less
