PROTECTION TRAINING! Our 17-month German Shepard “Bear” has been training with Pro-train since he was 1 year old. 1st he attended obedience training. I was very skeptical in having my pet away for me for such a long period of time, but I put my trust in Mike and Shell, hoping I made the right decision. Immediately, after meeting the staff and visiting the facility, my concerns for leaving my pet all went away. My husband and I were so pleased with the training and saw a big difference in Bear and his behavior’s. My hus... read more
My 10 1/2 y/o female GSD service dog Brikka goes wherever I do & gets complimented every time we're out (most recently to the ballet & theatre, and she is a pro on airplanes which we fly on twice yearly as I live bi-coastally & also when we're at a restaurant). It's normal to hear "what a wonderful, sweet dog" & "she is so well behaved." This is due to Brikka's training at Pro-Train under Mark Castillero's tutelage. I highly recommend Mark if you need a service dog or if your current dog needs to learn more 'acceptable' beh... read more
Our dog "Never" is an American cocker spaniel whom we took to training classes at another school-Petcoach which opened her up to bad habits of treats and jumping up constantly and nipping the kids hands for treats. Trying to unwind the bad behavior wasn't working with many consultants. We reached out to Pro-Train and did board/ train. Within a week no more jumping, she's got all her basic obedience / on and off leash. Her manners are incredible. She came home last night after training, going to the office was a dream she g... read more
Business response:
Thank you so much for recommending us. We strive to always please and get a "wow" from everyone.
Pro-Train has changed my dog for the better. His confidence has increased immensely. He’s barking less and is more responsive to commands and is actually much cuddlier than he was before. The trainers are hands down the best. They are extremely responsive to any questions or concerns that you might have. The training is also good for life so if the dog needs tuneups in training they’ll do it no additional charge. I would and have recommended them to everyone.
Business response:
Samantha, Thank you for the kind words. We love what we do. And so glad to hear from clients about their canine success stories! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your family.

Pro train is the best dog training around
I have been a Pro-Train client since 2004. Mark is the world's greatest guide dog trainer. He custom trained two beautiful Labs; Scooby and Captain to guide me from a motorized wheelchair after all of the non-profit guide dog training programs turned me away because I have severe cerebral palsy and use a wheelchair for mobility in addition to being nearly blind. His innovative training methods and excellent in-community handler instruction with a touch of good humor, enabled me to function confidently and successfully wit... read more
