Chicago Canine Academy

I sent my Rottweiler, Max, to Chicago Canine Academy and the results were outstanding. Max was a very difficult dog to train, but Jim and his team worked wonders—he came back like a brand-new dog! The self-control he has now is incredible. It’s a significant investment, but 100% worth it for the results. If you have a challenging breed and want a well-behaved dog, I highly recommend Jim and his professional team!" ​

Amazing staff and training! We did the boot camp for both of our dogs and they transformed them into well trained, in shape dogs with an eagerness to train more. The extended weekly groups ensure bother dog and owner accountability. They truly care about your dogs and will continue to help in anyway possible. I can’t say enough.

We are so pleased to have found Chicago Canine Academy. Our 62 lb. 7 month old German Shepherd was getting hard to handle and not listening. After the 2 week boot camp, she is such a pleasure to walk. We will continue to go in for reinforcement sessions. The trainers are very welcoming and know how to get results with the dogs.

In 2016 when my 75year old mother was going to live with me I took my Husky mix to Jim for boot camp training. His training made a huge difference. The dog no longer jumped up when excited. She was trained to walk and listen. I was trained also on handling my dog. Since then, and as recent as last fall, I always board my dogs with Jim and his crew when I go on vacation. I never worry about "my kids" . I am able to relax knowing they are in great hands. I also feed my husky the Leo dog food that I purchase there. She loves the raw chicken mixes. I changed her diet and it was a mistake. She is much happier on their food. She was grumpy and irritable when I took her off of it. I am very happy with the services I receive there and will always be a customer. I highly recommend them.

The best place for your dog! Might not be everyone’s cup of tea but we love a strong and ethical approach to dog training with lots of love! They offer that here. Our boy Sam is safe, happy and thriving so much in just the two weeks spent in their care. Beyond thankful to the team and can’t wait to send our other pup here. Cannot recommend it enough. If you are willing to put in the work you will see a vast improvement and just how much a dog can thrive with structure!
