Canine Behavior and Training: Local Resources

Home » Pet Health Library » Veterinary Health Articles » Library

The doctors at Wayland Animal Clinic have compiled this list of recommended canine behaviorists and trainers in the Boston and Metrowest community.  Most provide both group and private sessions and some will come to your home.  Please give us a call at 508-653-1096 if you would like to discuss how to best choose the trainer that is right for you and your dog.

GROUP & PRIVATE TRAINING:

This is a list of our recommended positive/reward-based trainers for both group classes as well as private training sessions for your dog (if required). We recommend classes for all puppies and new dogs. Group training is often a good place to start when you are working with a specific behavior concern.
