From the owner: If you’re looking for the ultimate dog training program, look no further than Ridgeside K9 New…read moreEngland! Our team of certified professional dog trainers work hard to create custom programs that fit every dog, and every budget; from private training lessons to boarding and training. Most of us lead pretty hectic lives, work long hours, have numerous commitments, and often don’t have extra time to devote to the hundreds of repetitions and 24/7 accountability that successful dog training requires. You would much rather be spending the time you do have exploring, having fun, making memories, or relaxing with your canine best friend! That’s where our Board and Train dog training services come in. Our trainers will create a unique training program to fit you and your dog's specific needs to achieve the training goals. All travel, treats, care, training, tools, and lifetime guarantee of communication with your assigned trainer is included in each of our programs. At the end of training, your trainer will return the dog back to you where they will not only teach you everything your dog has newly learned, but also how to continue with training in everyday aspects within your own home. Our motivation is to see you communicate, connect, and thrive with your dog!

We recently adopted a new puppy (Nala) to keep our 3 year old Golden doodle (Augie) company…read more Although the two dogs are siblings from different litters, they didn't immediately take to being together. Unlike Augie, who was always sweet and extremely mellow even as a puppy, Nala bit us in the face, barked, destroyed things in our home and terrorized Augie to the extent that he would run away from her. We weren't sure we could keep her because she was so badly behaved and seemed untrainable. In the span of 3 weeks, David transformed Nala from a challenging puppy into a dream puppy. She obeys all the commands, walks off leash in our wooded neighborhood, sleeps hours later than when she left and most importantly she is able to play well with Augie who now seeks her out and willingly allows her even to sleep in his own bed. David sent dozens of videos so we could watch her while she was in training and learn the language she was learning from David. He kept in contact and was even able to drop her off and meet our other dog for a walk with Nala. Without Massachusetts Dog Training, we would likely have given our wonderful puppy away and never realized what a gem we had. David helped to uncover Nala's true potential and helped us to realize how smart, sweet and special she is. We will be forever grateful for his wisdom, expertise and love for our Nala.

I cannot say enough good things about David and his incredible training skills. My dog, a husky…read morewith a strong personality and a history of aggressive behavior toward other dogs, came home completely transformed. On the very first day with David, he was already playing calmly with other dogs, something I never thought I'd see. David kept me updated every step of the way, sending daily videos that showed my dog's progress, which gave me so much peace of mind. When he came home, he could finally walk on a leash without pulling (a major win for a husky owner!) and he no longer jumps on guests the second they walk in the door. Now, he greets people calmly and listens better than ever. It honestly feels like I have a brand new dog. He is happier, more obedient, and much more social. I'm beyond grateful for David's help and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a professional, compassionate, and highly effective dog trainer. He truly works wonders!

They took down the photos of the dogs having fun at playtime (think they discontinued it). Our dog came back from the last time almost crippled.

But when the dogs were collected last week, following a 6-day stay, their beds, their blankets and the dogs themselves were soaked in urine. I should mention that one of our dogs is older and can have accidents. But the younger dog can go for a day without peeing, so HER soaked bed was much more telling. My daughter assured them she would NOT be bringing them back to board. To add insult to injury, despite a very late drop-off (after 5) and an early pick-up, they tagged on two full days of boarding to our bill. One star is too good for my review here.

They keep everything clean and are great with the dogs. When one of my dogs recently passed she collected a bunch of pictures from our dog spending time there and had an amazingly personal blanket created with pictures of him as well as sending a sympathy card and flowers. Whoever said she wasn't personal or good with dogs should be ashamed of themselves. Cyber bullying is for the weak.

We had an excellent experience with Christina. Our 3.5 year old Yorkie, Loki, was so full of…read moreanxiety that he would literally run around the house terrified for four hours straight barking and "screaming" as we called it (like the screaming goat) as late as midnight. It wasn't his fault, but we had to do something. He was taking medication recommended by our vet at the time. Christina's first visit was spent talking to us through Loki's barking and crying from his crate literally right next to us. She could see that in this state, he needed help before he needed training. She recommended we talk to our vet about a different medication, as she suspected the one he was taking was actually making his anxiety worse. She also recommended a change in his diet from store bought (high end) to homemade. We agreed to do these things and meet again in two weeks. When she came back, Loki was a different dog. He still needed training and still had anxiety, but we could now learn how to desensitize him to the things he was afraid of. (Doorbell, packages, strangers on walks, other dogs) Christina taught us the skills to train Lokie on these issues. Desensitizing will take time and commitment on our end and we are doing our best. :) We were not looking to teach our dog tricks, he does know the basics now though. We were looking for peace for Loki and our family. We are able to sit with him and take him places once again. THANK YOU CHRISTINA!!
