Wow first off I cannot thank the amazing staff at Norton Dog Training for the excellent care and support we have received with our sweet lily girl, while she was away with them in the board and train program, they were very transparent about their day to day operations. We also had weekly updates and pictures which helped relieve the anxiety of our baby being away, I also cannot thank them enough for keeping an eye out on our skinny girl and shared how they were able to get my picky girl to eat and monitored her weight closely While in their care. They have been very educational and I have seen such an amazing difference in our girl, she was very shy and all over the place outside of our home, they have taught us how to lead our girl with not only confidence but built a stronger bond and understanding for our pup. our lives have become much a lot better. 100% recommend them

We adopted Kevin from Henderson Animal Shelter last year — an extremely sweet but fearful, reactive, and completely untrained 1-year-old. He was great at home with our other dog, but anything outside (leash walks, the car, other dogs, or distractions) triggered total meltdowns. Nothing was working, and I was usually close to tears after outings. We started with private lessons with Brad at Norton Dog Training to assess Kevin and learn basic handling. While he improved in some areas, his reactivity needed far more consistent, high-level training and safe exposure than we could provide at home. So we enrolled him in their 4-week board and train program. The NDT facility is clean, professional, and well-run. Kevin got daily structured training, confidence-building drills, safe socialization with other dogs, and plenty of downtime. They used a balanced approach — rewarding good behavior while clearly correcting unwanted behavior — and introduced tools (prong collar while learning, now martingale + e-collar) tailored to him. While plenty of people oppose corrective training, and some trainers unfortunately do it poorly, when done right (as Norton does), it is never about hurting the d

We enrolled our Bernedoodle, Mackie, in the board and train program at Norton Dog Training, and the results have been amazing. Mackie is very smart but also high-energy and a little stubborn at times. After completing the program, her leash manners, recall, and overall responsiveness improved dramatically. She’s calmer, more focused, and much more consistent with her commands at home and in public. What really stands out is the continued support. They didn’t just train her and send her home — they’ve met with us afterward and helped with any training needs or questions we’ve had. They truly care about long-term success. Mackie also loves being boarded there. She gets so excited when we drop her off, and the photo shoots they’ve done of her are incredible — such a fun bonus on top of great training. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Norton Dog Training to anyone considering board and train. /

Norton Dog training not only gave us the most confident, well-trained, happiest dog we’ve ever owned, but they have become like family in the years since we had our girl trained with them. We wouldn’t think of training or boarding with anyone else. Ellie loves to visit all the staff members when she’s boarding and they even take the most PRECIOUS pics of her when she’s there! They are professional, excellent at communicating, and above all they only have the dog’s best interests at heart. We highly recommend them if you want your dog to be amazing and you’re willing to invest in your pup!

Norton Dog Training is top of the line! I have sent both of my dogs to their four week, obedience board and train and have been so pleased with the results. My dogs are my babies and there’s no one I would trust as much as the owners and staff at NDT! Their facilities are immaculate and offer everything trainers need to build the confidence and discipline of my four footed besties! The customer service has been five star and I believe that starts at the top with Brad and Jamie, who have come to feel like family. The trainers took all the time that I needed to discuss the challenges I was having with my Aussie doodle, and we mutually agreed upon the best training strategy to build her confidence and also have a plan in place so that I am equipped to reinforce all that she learned at Norton Dog Training at home!!!
