Stay calm let's train your dog
Good Dogs Stay believes that all dogs are Good Dogs. We work with each family on a case-by-case basis with individual training plans and programs that are designed with the needs of not only your dog, but your entire family in mind. We work with you to ensure long-lasting impact through expert training.
We offer help for all dogs. While our obedience classes are designed for all ages and breeds, we specialize in helping fearful and reactive dogs become confident, calm members of your family. No matter where they have been or what they have gone through before coming to live with you. At Good Dogs Stay, we understand that dogs are imprinted with their own language and humans are capable of learning new languages. We use body language and positive reinforcement training to meet our goal of harmonizing your life with your pet.
Our dedication to understanding your animals and bringing that understanding into your home is our greatest source of pride, and we look forward to welcoming you and your best friend to the Good Dogs Stay family.

My boys found their home
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
When I adopted my two GSDs, it was obvious that they needed superior training from people who were willing to help not only the dogs but also myself in understanding what they needed and how to achieve it. Other organizations were advocating for me to rehome one of my dogs before even coming to meet they or properly assess them. Misty and the Good Dogs Stay staff have surpassed any expectations I had and within 2 months I have seen a drastic change in my dogs. None of the progress we have made would have been possible without Good Dogs Stay. I have not only found a trainer who is so knowledgeable, incredibly professional, but most importantly… cares about my dogs as if they are her own and truly cares about their health, wellbeing, and is genuinely invested in their daily/weekly/monthly development.
If you are looking for training, then you should go out of you way to work with Good Dogs Stay, because they will go out of their way to ensure you and your dog get the training you deserve!James, Maxi and Georgi

Working with Misty and Good Dogs Stay has been such a joy and lots of fun! Misty is very professional, friendly, on time and did such a great job with our pup! It was so great and rewarding seeing her work and in action, and how our dog listened to and responded to her! She also gave us so many wonderful training tools and suggestions to work with to continue her training, once she was finished with her training sessions! Our dog has made great progress and I would highly recommend Misty and her services! We miss her, but know we’ve made a friend we can call upon any time we need her! 😍👍🏻🐶Diane, Tom and Ivy
