Recently moved from Indiana to Dallas for work, and am looking for suggestions on the best dog training facilities in the DFW area. Have not had much time to work with him, and could really use a good board and train program before anything. I have been doing some research, but wanted to get everyone's opinion on trusted/reputable trainers in the DFW area. Anything will help!

Our Lab Nique was trained and titled by Dan Keilty of Marks a lot kennels in Caddo Mills, Texas We currently have our black male in training with Dixie Land Retrievers in Point, Texas.
Also you could try Angie with Tioga Retrievers she posts on her a lot. I have never used her but she is very reputable and often post and gives good advice on this forum

I have heard good things about Tioga, but just wanted to get everyone's opinion. Right now I am just looking for an obedience board and training program. I will give Tioga a call, but still welcome all additional suggestions!

Tony (maximumintensityretriever is his name on the forum) always gives me good advice on here. I sent my lab for 3 months to Mad River Kennels, they are located in Ferris. They did a good job and close enough for me to go out and work with him every weekend. Seeings how this was my first gun dog, they trained me along with training my pup...

I sent my Wachtelhund to Zion Kennels just north of the metroplex in Bonham. Eddie Noga was great and helped walk me through training so I could continue working with her. One thing I learned about getting a dog trained, you get what you pay for.... Don't take ANY shortcuts.
