We were in puppy training with our 4 mot month old puppy. She is an amazing animal behavioralist and could answer a lot of questions. We learned so much from her. We would love if Olivia offered another class or have a dog park for small dogs to interact. Thank you very much!
Dani is a wonderful and caring trainer. We recently completed the Novice Training for 2 of our pomeranian puppies and they learned a great deal and are a lot more confident. Thank you, Dani! 🙂
My aussie, ABP, has been in the training program at BFF in Cockeysville. His trainer, Molly O”Hanlon, is kind, compassionate, dedicated and I could not be happier. The entire staff at BFF has treated my boy with the utmost gentleness and care. I am very impressed by the operation. And my aussie went in a hoodlum and is coming out a gent. I am grateful.
We absolutely love Best Friends Fur Ever! Our training experience with Dani was awesome. She is experienced, patient, and had such an incredible demeanor with our pup. Our rescue, Millie, loved Dani and couldn’t wait to Train and Play every day. The weekly training reviews showcased the skills Dani had worked on with Millie and really helped provide a model for us to reinforce at home. She worked with our entire family, kids included, to demonstrate the desired behavior as well as corrective actions to take if necessary. Request her if she is available! She is really easy to work with and a really nice person in general. Every member of the staff we encountered truly loved the dogs and you could feel how much care and love existed in this environment. We are so happy to have Best Friends Fur Ever as an extension of care for our dog.
Best Friends Furever provides excellent boarding for my large lab mix, Roxie. The staff is attentive and caring to Roxie. She particularly enjoys the 1:1 time with the staff members. They give her a lot of love and attention when she boards with them.
Took great care of my fur baby for a week. The staff clearly loves dogs and even when going to daycare, my dog runs in the door so fast to see her dog friends, she leaves me behind in the dust. 😄
Best Friends Fur Ever is awesome! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies and weren’t sure what do to with training them. I reached out to BFFE and enrolled them in a 6 week training program with Dani. They program is 1/2 day training and 1/2 day daycare so they also got socialized with other dogs. Dani was awesome and helped us all through the training process. My dogs now know 6 commands and we have the knowledge to keep the training going at home. We will continue to use BFFE for daycare and any time we need training refreshers!!! So glad we found Dani and BFFE!!!
When we brought Gaucho, our first miniature Aussie to BFF we were pretty sure he would love it, and he definitely did! To him, playing with other dogs is absolute heaven and as a bonus for us, we occasionally add on a bath or a trim while he’s there. 🙂
When we got our second dog, Paisley, (a three-year old mini aussie), she was afraid of pretty much everything. Her start at BFF was a little rocky (as expected). After consulting with the staff, we decided to do a 6 week “train and play” session. Molly, the trainer was amazing. She listened to what we wanted out of the training, and Paisley grew by leaps and bounds. Paisley would still rather be in my lap than anywhere else, but she goes into BFF confidently now and comes out happy. We’re grateful to BFF and especially to Molly.
Catalina is quintessentially the best at what she does. My pup and I recently graduated from BFF’s Dogversity and the experience was wonderful. Catalina is a phenomenal trainer. Her professionalism, passion, and attention to details is par excellence.
We are grateful for the opportunity to learn from Catalina. She taught me and my pup how to effectively communicate with one another. My pup was always excited to spend time with her. And my weekly sessions with Catalina gave me a chance to ask questions. She listened attentively, to make sure she understood me, and my pups needs. I hope you and your pup will consider meeting with Catalina. I am so glad; I made the decision to enroll my pup into the program and Catalina was our trainer.
I can’t say enough about the entire operations and staff at Best Friends Fur Ever. Top notch, organized, caring professionals. We’ve done daycare, boarding, and training.
Special note about the Honors Training Program (spoiler, Catalina is a gifted trainer!): Real Results That Last!
Our dog has been through other training programs but never seen the results we’ve achieved working with Catalina. She has a well-curated, intensive program. It includes a variety of tools for the owners as well (e.g. videos, report cards, & in-person weekly sessions).
Do your research, for sure, but having done it ourselves and tried two other programs before this one, we can say with confidence that, for us, this was the answer. We’re hanging with our well-trained dog as I write this! So…..
Thank you Catalina and the entire BFFE Crew!!! Keep up the best-in-class work!!!
Best Friends Fur Ever is the best kennel. We boarded our older dog here when she was younger, and the staff helped accommodate her because she has three legs, and they were great about it. Some staff still remembers her. She stays home now because she doesn’t like being away from her home. But we board our new pup here and did a two week training class. The trainers did great with our puppy, and she loves boarding there. The staff and facilities are amazing, too. It’s especially nice that they make all new pups go through an orientation day to ensure all the dogs that stay there are compatible with the other dogs. I can’t recommend Best Friends enough!
Finn loves going to daycare. He comes home tired and when I can see him on the web cam he looks like he is having a great time. Everyone is very nice and helpful.
