We train dogs.

We also teach owners how to have a healthy relationship with their dog based on fairness, clarity and consistency.

Let us help

Do you want a dog that comes EVERY time you call ? A dog that walks nicely on a leash? A dog that is obedient and calm when friends come into your home and able to relax and “do nothing” when you need them to? Our holistic philosophy and training system is designed for you and your dog to have a cooperative relationship to make all this possible and more.

A healthy relationship starts with a good foundation and regular maintenance. So whether it’s the structure and education of puppy day school, or a “tune-up” in the familiarity of your own home, our team of licensed canine professionals wants to help your dog to be their best.

We are a local Maine business that has been training dogs for more than 10 years. We pride ourselves on our expertise, and with hundreds of happy clients in Maine and throughout the northeast, our testimonials speak for themselves.

Based out of Bath, Maine, we offer private dog training services in Brunswick, Freeport, Yarmouth, Falmouth, Portland and Cape Elizabeth during the months of March-November.

"The Foundation Obedience training has been a “game changer” for our new dog Buffy. Buffy was out of control when we arrived for the first class and by the end of the training she was well behaved and easy to take out to the pet store. The class training was practical and well taught and I would recommend you and Maine Dog Training Company to anyone that wants a well behaved, under control dog!"

"We have taken 5 classes with Teri over the past couple of years: We keep coming back because Nola, my husband, and I just loves Teri. She is patient, kind and extremely knowledgeable about positive reinforcement training. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to build their relationship with their dog through fun, positive training!"

"Working with Teri has been invaluable in helping me find the right balance with my rescue pup. Her insights have strengthened the relationship that I have with my dog so that we both enjoy being out and about. Teri's patience, knowledge and no nonsense approach continue to help us work through many bumps in the training road - all while making it clear, concise and also fun!"
