Walnut Creek CA Dog Training by Dog Dynamics, Inc.

I had a great experience with the dog training team in Walnut Creek. They helped train my dog since I got him and they helped me overcome all of the hurdles that come with a new dog. The team is friendly, reliable and punctual. Thanks guys!

I've taken several classes through DogDynamics. This was the first obedience class. Excellent. They have a great understanding of what to teach and how to teach it. Always were available during and after class for questions and in class, would demonstrate the activity clearly. Very accommodating to different personal styles too.

Absolutely the best guidance from the team with our recently adopted Bernese Mountan Dog. Learned a ton and had a great time doing it.

Settling on a board and train option for our (then) 11 month old puppy, Bergen, was nerve wracking, to say the least. After talking to multiple different companies, I had a feeling that Dog Dynamics was the right choice for us. And I'm so happy to report that I was right! Bergen had a fabulous 3 week stay with Emily, who was an absolute magician with him and made huge progress in all of our goals for him. The follow up training sessions have been so beneficial in making sure that we're continuing the work and not losing any of fantastic progress Bergen has made, and Emily has continued to check in via text to make sure things are staying on track (they are! We feel well prepared now). Equally (or maybe even more!) important to the training for us was that it was clear that Bergen was well cared for, and that he had a fantastic time (as evidenced by how excited he was to see Emily when she returned for a follow up training visit). It's not easy sending your beloved family dog away for 3 weeks, but it was well worth it for us, and we're so happy to have found Dog Dynamics.

We've had a fantastic experience with multiple aspects of training with Dog Dynamics. We started by taking their puppy classes through the Orinda Community Center, then moved on to Basic Obedience and Intermediate Obedience, and did multiple private lessons with Avery. Following that, we used their board and train services with Emily. Our 9 month old puppy is now doing so well with her manners and obedience! Each person that we've interacted with on the Dog Dynamics team (Avery, Diana, Emily, and Bonnie) has been so knowledgeable about our dog's mindset and behavior, and we find that they use just the right mix of lots and lots of praise and treats with just a few necessary corrections to make the rules clear to the dog. They were all so positive and encouraging of us, even when we were fumbling and inconsistent. They focused on training the dog for our preferences, not for some rigid set of rules of "how it's supposed to be done." Our 9 month old golden retriever is getting ready to take her Canine Good Citizen test. We could not be more thrilled with Dog Dynamics!
