Dog Dynamix - Arvada, Colorado

We got a new puppy that was high energy and desperately in need of training. We tried going to group classes but the progress was painfully slow. After 3 weeks at Dog Dynamix, Buddy was almost perfectly obeying commands. Now Buddy is wonderful on-leash but is also amazing on off-leash walks. We couldn’t be happier with the training he has received.
The bonus we didn’t even know we needed is that we can now board Buddy there when we leave town and he gets refresher training and doesn’t learn bad habits. We have been so happy with the wonderful people and training at Dog Dynamix and cannot recommend them enough!

I took my 6lb Yorkie to their 2 week board and train for a refresher on leash training. Not only is the staff amazing and patient, the dogs really seem happy and comfortable there. Dog Dynamix really goes above and beyond with every Breed or size of Dog they train.. My Pebbles came home fresh, happy and motivated to keep learning. Great place!

We recommend this place to anyone who is looking to take dog training seriously. We have Australian shepherd that is extremely smart and loyal but needed some direction and was a bit dog shy. We did the puppy program and the adult board and train. After dog dynamics our dog showed the exact results we were looking for. We received videos and private trainings so we could learn how to continue training her. The instructions for training our dog were detailed and easy to follow, which is exactly what we needed. After board and train our dog is fully trained leash on and off, house trained, and is absolutely loving life. We also take advantage of the graduate board and train whenever we go on vacation and can’t take her. The piece of mind that she is in good hands as our dog would not do well in a free for all kennel is unmatched. On top of that they refresh her training to keep her sharp and doing what she is supposed to be doing. We don’t know what we would do without them. CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH don’t hesitate if you’re serious.

I was introduced to Dog Dynamix in October 2020 through a friend’s recommendation when I was struggling to walk my recently rescued pup, Waffles. He was extremely reactive on leash — barking, pulling, and acting aggressively toward other dogs. Every walk was stressful, often leaving me in tears when we got home.

After trying a positive-only training program that didn’t work for us, I decided to send Waffles to Dog Dynamix’s Reactive Dog Bootcamp for their 4-week balanced training program. It completely changed both of our lives! Waffles is now much more manageable, understands what’s expected of him in various real-world situations, and — most importantly — I know how to handle him confidently.

Dog training isn’t easy and requires ongoing effort, but I’m so thankful to have found Dog Dynamix. Their boarding and training program has also been a lifesaver when I travel, and Waffles has even enjoyed some fun adventures at Big Dog Ranch!

Dog Dynamix is truly the BEST in the business, and Waffles and I would be lost without them! I can’t recommend them enough for anyone looking for compassionate, effective, and results-driven dog training.

Highly recommend to ANYONE! This team was amazing. You can tell they truly love and care for the dogs and what they do! They took our dog from crazy puppy to obedient dog. No more being anxious when people come over, no more constant pulling and yelling on walks.

The updates were so helpful, both pictures and videos explaining more about the training and offering tips for when we brought him back home. I loved that this program takes the dogs into public areas that are similar to everyday life.

They were also so flexible and willing to work with us to make a perfect training program/adjust when life came up. I will continue to recommend this program any chance I get.

Taking our sweet girl to Dog Dynamix for their “perfect puppy” program is some of the best money we have ever spent, or should I say invested, and the return has been more rewarding than I could’ve ever hoped for. Winter is half Golden Retriever and half Great Pyrenees and we first took her to dd when she was approx 3 months old for phase 1 of their perfect puppy program. She went for two weeks and came back essentially perfectly potty trained and crate trained. We took her back for phase 2 when she was about 8 months old and she stayed for 3 weeks. Following this stint she had an incredibly solid foundation for off leash. It is the responsibility of the owners to keep up on these skills, of course, but if you are willing to do even the slightest bit of work you will be so rewarded. We are experiencing our first summer with her now as a 1-ish year old dog now and are getting her on her first real hiking trails and the freedom she can have due to her training is so rewarding for both Winter and for us.. it’s honestly hard to explain. We also take her back for "refresher boarding" every time we are out of town and she gets so excited every time we arrive and so does the staff! I truly can’t recommend this place enough. The entire staff treats you like family and will love love love on your pup. 🙂

We dropped off our 11-month old pup Gordo for a 3 week board & train with Dog Dynamix. I cannot say enough good things about the facility and his trainer, Mason. They posted video/picture updates about every other day so we could see Gordo’s progress. The facility is clean and every staff member we interacted with was very friendly. Mason quickly realized that Gordo is not very food-motivated, but was still able to train Gordo exceptionally well. Gordo was previously very challenging to walk. He was distracted very easily and would pull HARD towards dogs, squirrels, snow, you name it. Walks and hikes were a huge challenge. We are now able to enjoy our walks together and he gets better mental exercise on his walks through the focus/training that he has learned. His walks now actually tire him out. He also has much better manners at home around guests. He no longer sprints to the door and jumps on our friends, and instead waits on his “place” to be released. I am so proud of my little guy Gordo, and know the dedication, work, and passion that has gone into getting him where he is. Mason, you rock! Looking forward to our future training sessions together to keep up Gordo’s new skills.

I've been taking my dog Kermit to Dog Dynamix since fall 2022, starting with their board and train program. He was 2.5 years old at the time and I felt he had regressed, and I didn't have the tools or confidence to fix it. I found experts at Dog Dynamix, and they reinforced/reset Kermit's training foundations and introduced the e collar (something I had wanted, but didn't know how to start on my own). They also reviewed the techniques and rules with me so I could do my best to follow through consistently.

I am thrilled with the results of the program and ongoing practice he has during post-program boarding. The board and train program is on par price-wise with other programs I looked into (and less expensive than some), and even though the post-program boarding is more expensive than typical dog boarding places around Denver, it really is worth it. Kermit is so excited when we pull into the lot for drop-off, and I'm grateful to have found a place that I can trust and he enjoys to leave him when I have to travel for work. I know he's getting tons of mental stimulation, learning, exercise, and having fun and new experiences. Plus I feel good knowing the Dog Dynamix team appreciate his goofy personality. If you're on the fence, just go for it! You won't regret it.
