Very impressed and very badass in the way that they are in class..

Very wonderful trainers to work with! They really know how to read dogs when it comes to one on one classes. They are extremely professional and carrying when it comes to these animals.We also had a blast with puppy classes and our girl is seriously so well behaved.10 out of 10 would recommend to ANYONE!

I am so glad we have the opportunity to work with the trainers here. They are so patient and explain the proper steps to help teach your puppy valuable skills.

Training for our little bratt Golden Dolly has been wonderful,very nice place and trainers have been so patient.everyone in class have been so nice.

Private and class dog training, plus agility classes.

Best trainers. Very knowledgeable and caring. All positive reinforcement!

First time there with my puppy and they were excellent very clean very efficient excellent I recommend everybody

I would recommend anyone and everyone who has a dog to come take classes at the Advances in Animal Behavior!They have very knowledgeable trainers who will teach YOU how to teach your dog. Their positive reinforcement training techniques make it fun for you and your dog to learn basic obedience, agility, and much more!Go to their website to find what classes they offer and what times they have said classes. Its totally worth your time and money to enroll!Me and my pup, Gizmo, are currently in Agility 1 and are having so much fun together and are learning so much!

They are good. Only problem because of the pandemic is wearing the mask and possibly not hearing well. So you need to ask them to repeat. Good teacher.

We couldnt recommend Kristen enough. We adopted a younger dog whose history we didnt know anything about as she was brought in as a stray. Though she was friendly towards us, our dog acted aggressively towards other people and other dogs. As we were trying to get her used to life outside the kennel, her reactivity was admittedly a little overwhelming. But then we found Kristen.Kristen identified what triggered our dog right away and showed us ways to positively address it through reward instead of punishment. She walked us through how to work with her the right way, basically training us instead of training the dog, which is exactly what we needed. She provided notes to continue our training at home.A year later, she is a transformed dog. We couldnt bring friends to our house for a while after getting her for fear she would hurt someone. Now, having used Kristens training methods for about a year, our dog quickly warms up to strangers. We can enjoy walks without fear of an embarrassing display of a dog-gone-crazy.We just returned to Advances in Animal Behavior to get some more training for vet visits, and cant wait to put Kristens training into practice. She is an outstanding trainer with decades of experience and we cant thank her enough for what she has done to help my husband, me and our pup.

I have been taking Murphy to training at Advances in Animal Behavior for over a year, starting with Puppy Class, then obedience, and now agility. He is a smart dog with high energy, and loves running through tunnels, over jumps and other obstacles. Come Here Now class was especially helpful, as he understood what come meant, just didn’t see why he should!Katie and Kristen make it fun to train your dog, and it’s never boring. They have been very helpful with behavioral issues as well, as consistent training builds a great bond with your dog. Their methods are all positive rewards, exactly what I wanted for Murphy.

I have been taking my dog Chuck to Advances in animal behavior for over a year. First for obedience training and presently taking agility classes. Kristen was a big help in getting Chuck trained as a therapy dog. Love the trainers, Kristen and Kate. Great facility!!! Wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.

Phenomenal training facilities!

Best trainers EVER! We take agility classes here currently, and recently did Board and Train during our last vacation. You can board your pups upstairs at PHPR and have trainers work with them during their stay. Worth every penny! We have also had extremely successful private lessons and loved taking Obedience group class as well. We have a new rescue that we adopted back in October, and with the help of Kristen, Katie and everyone, our new pup has really settled in to life with us.

Instructor was really knowledgeable. Small class size. Very clean.

Awesome training facility with plenty of room. They offer great scheduled classes, lots to do with your dog! Rally is going really great, we enjoy training with Kristen!

I didn’t like this training at all. If you are looking for quality helpful training, do not go here. This seems like basic training you can find on YouTube.

We had a great experience. Kate was patient and very knowledgeable about our dogs behavior. We really liked that they used positive training techniques. We would definitly recommend them.

The owner is rough around the edges.Paid for a one hour one on one session with Kate and it was a waste of money.She took her own dogs out for a potty break and wasted time bringing her dogs out to show what they could do as opposed to working with mine during the scheduled hour session. Really...that’s not a session worth $60.Go somewhere else!

My dog loves going there she has a lot no matter what class we are taking.

Trainers are knowledgeable about canine AND human behaviors. Excellent at helping humans learn to be their dogs best friend.

Awesome place to train your dog! Ive taken my dogs for Obedience Classes as well as Agility classes. The instructors really care and my dogs have learned some amazing things. Advances in Animal Behavior practices positive reinforcement training. I love this place!

Great facility. Great Staff. Great trainers.

This place has the best dog agility classes in Chicagoland!

Great. Knowledgeable. Love taking my dog here.

Big agility area with all the bells and whistles. Kris gives excellent tips and is very patient - no right way, no wrong way, you figure it out.

Fabulous place.

Kristen was amazing, very kind, very patient, and just a endless fountain of information!

Great place to train your dog

Love this place!

Great facilities and trainers.

Kristen is great.
