There’s no truer statement than “a dog is man’s best friend.” But sometimes our beloved canines drive us nuts. They make mistakes in the house – by chewing, or worse. They dig or bark or jump up, and they won’t obey our commands. Sometimes they are dangerous. Dog training can turn virtually any dog into the companion you want. But where can you find the best dog trainers in San Jose?
Here’s what real clients have to say about the top five dog trainers in San Jose:

3. Jenna McDonald’s Feathers & Fur
- “Our mastiff had been developing seriously bad fear behavior, especially toward other animals (in the neighborhood or even just on the television).

5. Primal Canine
- “I attended 20 classes from another training facility and didn’t get the results we needed, however we’ve had 3 private sessions at Primal Canine and have seem tremendous growth in our baby – our pit-bull was a nervous dog that had leash aggression with other dogs.
- “If I could give them 1000 stars, I would!!”
