Disclaimer: This list is comprised of AKC kennel clubs, obedience groups, and other dog training businesses that have been recommended by friends on Facebook.
Please do your research, contact, and ask questions, when looking for a trainer in your area.
I have not personally used all the trainers on this list, so proceed with caution. But I have grabbed enough information to make the process easier for you when you contact them.
This list is also targeted to help NEW PUPPY OWNERS, but it does have information listed if other classes are offered at a location.
