Buck's Dog Training of Central NJ was amazing. Our dog, who is 4 years old and was only potty trained, was in desperate need of real training. We couldn’t enjoy excursions and travel with our dog, or even our own home when guests came over. She was barking, jumping on people, lunging, pulling, and also afraid of her own shadow. AJ and the whole team understood her immediately and put a plan in action. We dropped our dog off for just over 2 weeks and she came back trained on various commands and had better behavior all around. We can enjoy our lives with her now and wouldn’t hesitate to use Bucks again. We got pictures and videos every day which helped us not miss her but the videos were also training for us so we see how we can help her behavior at home. Bucks also did an in-home follow up where our whole family could get a refresher and ask questions specific to our home and layout and issues. Bucks exceeded our expectations. Your dog will be well cared for and safe. They are very careful to keep dogs together in safe groups when socializing. Staff at Buck’s are exceptional. Responsive and thorough with explanations. Shout out to AJ and Lorraine. Nisha misses you all!

We had a great experience with the board and train for our dog, Lincoln. AJ and Lauraine did an amazing job working on his recall and dog reactivity, along with prong collar conditioning and overall collar training. They also taught him additional commands and made sure we knew how to continue the training at home. We saw real progress and highly recommend them!

We entrusted AJ , Lauraine and the staff with our two dogs Marley and Milo . Although super friendly both dogs lacked discipline and were difficult to walk. The constant pulling and barking at people, dogs, and vehicles was becoming not only a nuisance, but a safety issue .After some research Buck’s Dog Training Academy had the best reviews so we met with them and felt at ease leaving our pups in their care.Marley and Milo are family to us. When we travel we miss them starting on day one. It is hard for us to leave them in someone else’s care . We are happy with Bucks Training and highly recommend their services. They are patient and not only train the dogs, but also the owners and how to handle the dogs. They love what they do and it shows in their work.

My Honey is a 9 year old, stubborn, anxious hound girl. I decided that it was finally time to try some training. Honey 🐾🐝🍯 and I met with the staff at Bucks Dog Training. I New right away that we were in the right place. Their kindness and knowledge was evident. They understood her anxiety, and they knew how to handle a stubborn hound. Honey has learned to enjoy going out on a walk. I’m not being pulled down the street in the direction that she wants to go. Lauraine and her trainers helped Honey 🐾🐝🍯 work through her anxiety . She’s no longer jumping and barking when being approached by a person or another dog. Needless to say, I’m also enjoying our walks a lot more.Lauraine and her trainers offer follow up visits as needed. Leaving Honey in the care of Bucks dog training was the best thing that I could have done for Honey!!

I just wanted to say thank you to Lauraine and AJ from the bottom of our hearts for all their hard work and dedication with our Rottweiler puppy Sampson.We truly believe this was a success story. Without their help we wouldn’t have been able to keephim. They have taught our dog how to be affectionate, friendly, obedient, confident, and loyal. Prior to reaching out to them, we were at our wits ends with his behavior, and we didn’t know where else to turn until we received a recommendation from a friend of ours. We are so happy we made the right choice to go with Bucks Dog Training of Central NJ . If you’re looking for a Dog Trainer look no further I promise you it’s worth every penny. Sampson is now a changed dog for the better, and we are much more confident :) so TY for all your help!

I brought my English Cream Golden Retriever, Cadiz, for training and saw amazing improvement. The trainers were patient, knowledgeable, and truly cared about helping us. Cadiz is now more focused, well-behaved, and we feel confident that he will retain these lessons for the rest of his happy life. Highly recommend!

Buck's Dog Training has been a godsend to my family. We have a redbone coonhound named scooby who is great but he has a real stubborn streak and some anxiety. He would bark and go crazy on dog walks whenever he saw another dog and would lose it whenever anyone came over to the house, and I had no idea how to get him to stop He's a completely different dog now thanks to the one week he spent at Buck's. We looked at about five different trainers before selecting Buck's and I knew from the start we were in good hands. I'm a little put off by the drill sergeant approach so what makes Lauraine and AJ unique to me is that they are firm and results-oriented, but also kind. Scoobey loved them too. They're very down to earth and had a special way of talking "with" me about something important, and "not down to me" about something I should probably know by now or will never understand. They're authentic to their cores and they know how to deliver the goods. Scoobey is now a fun-loving and "chill" dog now that we have the teaching tools to reinforce all of the great lessons learned at Buck's. I could go on and on about what a great experience we had with Lauraine and AJ!
