First Friend K-9 Training

Owner lacks integrity - Don't support this business. I had an awful experience with First Friend. After enrolling my dog in training, I quickly realized how INHUMANE the training methods are. When I decided to withdraw my dog, I had a hard time getting in touch with anyone. After several phone calls the owner, Bruce, finally answered the phone himself and I was able to confront him. He said he would reimburse me. That's great, right? I'm all for a fair reimbursement. Except, it wasn't fair! He kept changing his mind about how much to reimburse me. When I asked for an itemized list, he could not provide me with one. I was lied to for 3 weeks about my check coming to me. I still have not received my money back. I filed a complaint with the BBB - the 3rd complaint in about a year against First Friend. Do you really want to support a business that lies?…

Very impressed. My puppy has gone from unruley to obedient in an 8 week period of time. There are no magic words but "aught" is pretty close to it once you do the homework and follow the advice of Bruce and his team. I have been very impressed with the professionalism, the dedication and attitude of Bruce and his entire staff. Reasonable cost and very effective when you do your homework!…

Awesome!. First Friend K-9 Training Facility is simply amazing. Bruce and his team are like a family to all who enter the facility, while providing a top notch training experience. They have been training dogs for years and love what they do.

First Friend offers training, boarding (daycare & long-term), and grooming. They also have a great retail store, where they sell food, toys, and treats.

We started our German Shepherd in Novice Class and have been attending the Advanced Classes for over a year. The classes are extremely affordable and cost even less than the basic Box Store dog training fees - Except you get SO much more!

We have about a 45min commute to the facility once a week, but it is worth every second and every penny. I've never had a dog so well behaved and trained. I couldn't be more thankful to First Friend. They make training so easy and fun! I plan to "stay" with this family!…

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS. Bruce McNabb, who owns this business was charged with animal neglect of a boarder and abused at least one dog in class. Why on earth are people still supporting these sick people? There are plenty of trainers and training facilities in the area that actually care about and care for your dog.…
