Our puppy had 2 accomplishments (housebreaking and usually willing to sit) before she spent 2 weeks with Holly. Flo returned a well-mannered, obedient and much calmer dog. She no longer jumps on anyone, chews our kids toys or counter surfs. Flo comes when called, is e-collar trained and can hold a down-stay for a hour. In addition to the 2 follow-up home training sessions, Holly has always happily answered all of our emailed questions. We never thought that we'd be able to experience the joy of a well-trained dog, but Holly made it happen for us! We can now take Flo many more places because she is so well behaved. From now on we will always return to Holly and Suburban K-9 Dog Training when we welcome a dog into our family. read lessCara CrosbyOur family has had a wonderful experience with Suburban K9!

Our first board and train was with Brooke N., who was awesome with our then ~6-month old Goldendoodle Teddy. It was so amazing to see a previously bouncy and nippy puppy come home with such great manners (heel, sit, lay down, come, leave it, etc.). Also, the come-home and check up session were great to let us humans know how to most-effectively interact with Teddy too. We would definitely recommend Suburban K9 (and Brooke!) for dog training services! read lessAaron GinOur family has had a great experience with Suburban K9!

Our 10-month old Goldendoodle Teddy has participated in two board and train sessions so far and with great results! We've worked with several Suburban K9 trainers (Amber, Lenny, and Brooke) in the Clarendon Hills, IL area and have been pleased with all of them. So much of the focus is not only on training the animal, but also on training the humans too. Love the go-home and follow-up sessions because it establishes a long-term relationship with the trainers, family, and the dog. Would absolutely recommend Suburban K9 without reservation. read lessAaron Gin

Hudson came back from Board and Train 3 week program a different dog. He is great on and off leash, follows commands, and has made being a dog owner enjoyable. Regan has always made herself available for questions, and has instilled the confidence for me to carry-on what she has taught Hudson. I highly recommend Regan and Suburban K9. read lessMichelle CarsonWe used Suburban K9 for a board & train and couldn’t be happier with the results.

We were having issues with nipping, jumping, table surfing, chewing shoes, among other crazy puppy issues. Holly did an amazing job training our dog so that all those issues are now gone and she’s incredibly well behaved. Comes when called, stays in place, walks politely. We were at our wits end when she went to training and are so happy to now have such a well behaved dog! read lessEloise WhitlockWe are so happy that we chose Suburban K9!

We were able to coordinate our vacation and a 2 week board and train with Maggie Deemer. Our golden doodle pup, Loki, responded so well to Maggie and the company's methods. Most important are the follow ups because that is where you see your pet with the trainer and learn how much better behaved they are. It truly is amazing! Maggie cares about her dogs and families, she is excellent at what she does. I highly recommend. read lessVera Rewolinski
The Dog Board and Train Boot Camp
Instead of one hour group classes that are often ineffective, our Dog Boot Camp allows our experienced trainers help hundreds of dogs every year—each exhibiting different personalities and traits. Here’s how we go about tailoring our Dog Boot Camp program around your pup’s needs:
We pick up your dog at your home. This way, the trainer has the opportunity to see your dog in its home environment and discuss the specifics of what you are looking for. The more the trainer knows about your dog, the better they’ll be able to help address your needs.
The trainer takes the dog to their home and works to reinforce new behaviors with your dog. This includes obeying commands, even during heavy distractions such as the doorbell ringing or being around other dogs. The length of stay depends on what you are looking for.
You will get a 2 hour go home at your home at the end of the Board and Train. The trainer will go over everything your dog has learned and how to maintain it! In the coming weeks you will receive follow up sessions in your home to ensure that you are left with lasting results. You can even call us lifelong if you have questions for no additional charge.
