For In home training, we received 158 total votes, resulting in 24 dog trainers who focus on In home training. Our top-ranked dog trainers are listed in order of votes, with the top-ranked trainer for In home training listed first.

Dog trainers for In home training on this list are certified by CPDT-KA, FDM, or another trusted organization.

I love kids. This job allows me to work with all three. I love that I can help develop understanding, compassion, and joy in families and help dog/human families grow closer together..

At Sniffspot, we prioritize trust and expertise. Christine Good, as well as the other dog trainers on this In home training list, ensures they bring the highest standards of care and training to your dog. Christine Good encourages owners with this dog training tip: I think, we could solve half our dog problems by picking dogs that fit our lifestyle better. For example -puppies may look adorable with their big eyes but they are really Velociraptors on steroids! They bite, and have accidents, and bite some more. It is also a misconception that puppies are blank slates and won't develop problems. Puberty is awful no matter the species. Dogs two and over have fully formed personalities. What you see is usually what you get - if you know how to look. Also, although we may fantasize about driving a racecar and may enjoy watching them, most of us are much better served in real life with an SUV or sedan. There are breeds out there that appear in movies or online videos showing off fantastic skills - but they are not made to be living in suburbia around families. They are not happy - and you won't be either..
