We are happy to explain what we intend to do and how it will help you and your dog before we schedule your training session. We will even do free evaluations when necessary.

With your cooperation, we will meet all of your dog training needs, this we do guarantee! WE WILL NOT ASK YOU TO PAY FOR TRAINING YOU DO NOT NEED, GIVE YOU GUARANTEES WE CANNOT KEEP or ASK YOU TO USE TECHNIQUES THAT MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE! Yes, unfortunately, this does happen. As my dad used to say, promises that sound too good to be true, probably are! The quality of training your dog receives is not related to the price you pay for it! It is directly related on the experience, knowledge and versatility of your dog trainer, and your cooperation in achieving the goals you have set for your dog.

We plan to be there for the life of your dog. Our clients call us with training questions or for referrals to groomers, veterinarians, pet sitters, boarding, play boarding, pet travel, and many other things for the life of their dog! We can even help in acquiring new pets when the time comes... and we are happy to help!

Experience the latest techniques and the most versatile, well-educated instructors in the area at lowest price. Make sure you ask about our Forever Training Program (Freepeats). We are the difficult dog specialists. We can help you with your dog's aggression problems, separation anxiety, destructiveness, bad manners, obedience training, or puppy training and socializing.

If you've done some research into dog training (and we encourage you to do so) and been intimidated by high prices, a lack of expertise, or both... you will be pleasantly surprised by My Best Friend Obedience! We want your "best friend" to stay that way. Call us at (818) 996-3647 (24 hour emergency assistance is available)...
                                     

YOUR DOG WILL THANK YOU FOR IT!
