Arfordable Dog Training - Converse, Texas

My baby beagle has the best time here for playcare! I know she is loved and cared for with great trainers and kennel techs. She attends at least two days a week. The staff is always so loving towards her. I pick her up exhausted every time as she is able to play with all of her doggo friends and is ready for nap afterwards, lol

Arfordable Dog Training has been a game-changer for my extremely reactive dog! After seeing many trainers with no real progress, I was skeptical, but Isabel's approach using constant positive reinforcement (instead of the typical authority-based methods) has worked wonders. My dog's behavior has improved significantly, and I'm so grateful for Isabel's patience and expertise.

They also offer a dog boarding service that accepts reactive dogs when most places won't accept reactive dogs. Their services are not only effective but also super affordable. If you are looking for effective and sustainable training methods, this is the place to go! Highly recommend!

I cannot express how much I appreciate and recommend Affordable Dog Training. I enrolled my new rescue in their three-week Behavioral Modification program, Reactive Rover I, and Intermediate Obedience. They have helped him grow into a great dog and helped me become a better handler. I also take advantage of their play care and boarding. All their trainers and staff are top-notch, and they love what they do.

Our boy had an incredibly hard first few months of his life, and for the first time in my life around animals I knew we needed professional help to give Teddy what he needed to thrive. He went to Arf Academy's three week "boarding school" as we called it. I was so, so anxious about this decision - both for his well being and for my financial investment!

Best investment I've ever made.

Teddy went in a very frustrated, very fear aggressive, and very dog scared pup. He's come out as a completely dog obsessed, friendly, well mannered, more patient boy. We as his owners learned SO much from their daily report cards, videos, and pictures - guiding us with his learning journey each day. We are completely better equipped for him and his needs, all thanks to the trainers here. We went to his weekly Friday group class training and getting to witness the bond he'd formed with the trainers was so awesome.

We were sent home with equipment, guides, one on one classes to set up, and classes to join for a few months. Teddy is a much happier dog and I am a much happier dog mom knowing what we did for him, putting him into the BEST board and train program around, was a smart move.

Also the fact he goes home with one of the owners every night and not just left in a facility? We're already preparing to board him again instead of trying to make something else work - and I've never trusted anyone before to board one of my animals!

We are so thankful for this training program. Not a single con, and worth every dollar.

Our dog loves it here! She gets so excited once she realizes we are in their parking lot! We've been to group classes here, had them come offsite for a private training, we use their Playcare about 1 day a week and board with them anytime we leave town. We've learned a lot about how dogs act and why they do what they do from the staff here, and they are always giving tips on how to read dogs body language so we can let Susie live her best dog life and understand each other better. I think it's only been a year, but our dog Susie is so happy, well taken care of and loved with every visit at Arfordable, and she always wants to come back. ❤️💕🐕

I am not usually a writer of reviews but Arfordable Dog Training deserves a sincere shout out from me! Jessica and Jenny (owners) really work day in and day out to build a safe and fun environment for dogs to both play and learn. When it comes to trainers I have to say that experience and love of animals both matter to me. Arfordable is founded on fear free principles and uses positive reinforcement to train your dog. The high level of education is consistently tweaked as they continue to take the ENTIRE staff to trainings throughout the year to make sure they are doing everything to give their clients and dogs the best experience possible. When you walk in the door you are greeted by name and the staff takes your all so willing dog as he prances away in anticipation of a great day. Knowing my dog is so happy to go makes my heart happy. The vast array of services they offer will astound you. Their willingness to listen and problem solve is unmatched in my opinion. Thanks for all you do Arfordable! You guys are the BEST!

We've been working with Rachel in private lessons with our two dogs. I mostly wanted to do the training for my nieces so that THEY would learn how to interact with their own dog. Rachel has been great, she has been patient and informative with the young girls, and in two lessons has already helped us make great strides with our dogs! We're so grateful!

This is the perfect place for our dog! She has learned so much in her training and she loves the playcare & boarding. The staff and owners are so helpful and will give us additional tips when we are addressing any behaviors.
They are the best!
