Dog Training

100% recommend College for Pets! Our boy, Memphis just returned home from his first 5 weeks of the Lodge and Train program and he is a changed dog. He is... read more already so much more confident. We can’t wait to see what the coming months have to offer as we all continue to grow together and strengthen the amazing skills he’s acquired.

The grounds and buildings are always immaculate. Every staff member I have encountered is always super friendly and smiling. All the animals look and seem happy and content.

My fiancé and I are so thankful that we found White Mountain College for Pets! As most everyone we know knows, Beau is the most hyper pup I have ever... read more had, and he has really bad separation anxiety. We knew when we started our internship for our counseling program that he could not stay home alone. White Mountain College for Pets not only gave us peace of mind, but also Beau. I have seen Beau go from timid and hiding behind our legs, to happy go lucky when heading into his day camp. He's been working on so much and I have noticed he a little better at sharing toys with his dog neighbor Ellie, he is calmer throughout the day, and he is more attentive. Now, don't get me wrong, Beau has always been attentive, but I think from what he has been working on in day camp, he is just listening a little bit better at home because he is an overall calmer little guy. Beau also loves that he gets to hang with his people friends all day and that he always gets sent home with a treat or two. He has practiced socialization with other pups (a big help!), scent training, and one day he even got a little doggy massage! Long story short, if you're looking for a place for you dog to go during the day, pick here - and enroll them in day camp, it has been so great for Beau Beau! :)

I have 2 young male dogs who attend College for Pets twice weekly. They look forward to going and are very tired when they return. The staff is professional, hard... read more working, helpful and love animals. We have been very happy with the services provided. In addition to the daycare, we have also boarded our boys while away, attended group training and plan to use the 2 week “dog camp” when we go on an extended vacation.

Really great caring staff and top notch facility- our positive experience started with a few training classes when our dog was a puppy, all excellent and helpful for our pup's... read more obedience. For the past five years he's been going to day camp a few times a week and he boards here for vacations when we're not able to take him. I'm guessing much of the time he has a better time at day camp or boarding and playing with other dogs and getting activities, than being home... Thanks to everyone at White Mountain College for Pets for taking care of our dog so well!

Best decision we made to have our dog trained here. High level of communication and a dedicated team. We will be using other services in the future.

Good professional people if you have the money it's worth it.

Having had a couple of really amazing furry family members I trained myself my confidence was totally challenged with Gus. I did my research and decided on White Mountain College... read more for Pets. The team was great from the moment I called until I picked up Gus at the end of his training. I especially liked the interactive video calls and weekly video of Gus’ progress. I felt very much like a part of his training. The best part is the training doesn’t end when you go home! We have both private & group training to reinforce what Gus has learned and expand our training together. Thanks to Karen & everyone!!

I am blown away by the work White Mountain College for pets did for my and my dog. My dog is a 4 year old Italian Greyhound who is very... read more high energized and wreaked havoc in my house. She jumped out on counters to steal food, bolted away from me, wouldn’t let me put her harness on her, and was an awful food stealer. From the beginning, they kept my expectations realistic and were very patient with me and my question. When Gidget came home from the board and train I was just blow away by the progress she made. I can put her harness on her! She (most of the time) comes when I call her. She is able to play outside without being attached to me. She hasn’t stolen food since her return home. She is still her energetic self, but she is much more well behaved. I thought training Gidget was a lost cause (multiple other training attempts were). They cared for her like she was their dog and did an amazing job with her. Anyone looking for a committed training school for there “hopeless to train” dog, this is definitely the place!

Our 3-year-old labrador retriever started at White Mountain College for Pets through the 6-week lodge and train program and we have been blown away by Mike and his team's commitment... read more to our dog’s progress and training and all of the resources that are available to us. The expert trainers have worked with our dog twice a week for nearly three months as a continuation of the training journey, which has been extremely important for our dog’s growth and ability to transfer his new skills to his home environment. We are especially grateful for the loving attention of our dog's favorite trainer, Aura, who has been a fantastic trainer for him and, just as importantly, for our entire family. She is a superstar and we couldn’t be happier about the relationship she has developed with our dog. While the price tag for training might look steep at first glance, the level of service that is offered at White Mountain College for Pets is extraordinary and a great value. We highly recommend them!

The staff is incredible and my dog is well cared for. We vacation in the NH lakes region twice a year and we have been White Mountain College clients for... read more many years now. There isn't anyone around that I trust more than them.

This place is outstanding. We leave both our dog and cat at White Mountain, sometimes for extended stays when we are traveling. The care they receive is highly... read more personal and their rates are reasonable. The staff really bonds with the pets, as if they were their own. For this reason, our dog and cat get all excited and enthusiastic when they are dropped off. In addition, the staff will call us if there is any important information to share. They are highly attentive to the needs of the pets and highly communicative with the pet owners. I highly recommend White Mountain for anyone looking for the highest quality pet care.

SPECTACULAR! I cannot say enough good thinks about Mike and his team. Our dog is an amazing dog but has some behavioral issues. We just finished the "in-residence" phase... read more of the program and so far, it's been amazing! So much so that, while we have a house sitter that comes take care of Lucy when we're gone, we actually would rather know she's at the College. LOVE IT!

I’ve been boarding my dogs with Mike for years when we’d go on family vacations and have always felt so comfortable our dogs have been very well cared for. ... read more When we got a new puppy in ‘20 I took some puppy classes and then enrolled my pup in Day Camp. I couldn’t be happier with every service we’ve used. The whole group at White Mountain College for Pets is awesome. When I drop my dog off in the morning for day Camp he pulls me through the door and clearly couldn’t be happier to be there. That says it all!!

The team at College for Pets was wonderful to work with from the beginning and the customer service went above and beyond any expectations. I reached out for advice regarding... read more training my parents Golden, Brewster, as a service animal. Their response was fast and soon after I had a phone consultation answering all of my questions. After a six week board and train, Brewster has become much more manageable and my mother is able to walk him without any pulling - something we never thought possible. During his time away, we were sent pictures and videos and were constantly reassured that he was in good hands. We look forward to continuing working with the team and for Brewster to develop more and more skills!

My dog Biscuit loves going to White Mountain College for Pets! They have a knowledgeable and friendly staff, and I feel as though my dog is well taken care of... read more when he is there.

Been sending Millie to doggie day camp this summer. She loves it! People are all great and really care about the fur babies they have in their charge.

From the very first day, the staff at White Mountain College for Pets has been so welcoming & eager to help. They truly care about all the pets they... read more encounter. We enrolled our puppy, Teddy, in the Foundation Obedience class with such positive results that he has since participated in several other classes, including the Board & Train program. He absolutely loves his time there. In fact, from the moment our car turns into the driveway, his excitement cannot be contained! The entire staff welcomes Teddy by name with warmth and kindness. Thank you, White Mountain, for providing such a wonderful & positive environment for pets and their people!

We have been bringing our pups here for 3 years. From obedience training, to fun agility classes and weekly day care - Mike and his team are professional, kind and... read more most importantly - an extension of Callie’s family!

We have used many services from White Mountain College for pets. Where to start, puppy classes, obedience foundation, grooming, lodging plus. The facility is super clean. Staff... read more is friendly and attentive. By attentive I mean listening to every single “important detail” about Sobaka’s past, present and future life with out a single eyeroll 😎. The instructors, especially Sue and Karen, are super knowledgeable and offer great tips just for Sobaka on top of all the lesson topics. We look forward to more classes and lodging opportunities.

Sobaka goes to the facility with a wiggle butt and comes back the same way. Lodging plus includes enrichment time. His manners (such as they are for a puppy) are not only in place, but better! He will be one year old this month. Great peace of mind having him in the care of White Mountain College for pets when he can not travel with us.

Communication is excellent. I frequently get replies in the middle of the night, or definitely within 24 hrs. I appreciate their flexibility to my changing travel needs.

One suggestion, as an over thinker and worrier, I would love to see/hear updates at least every other day for lodging plus.

Amazing k9 training center! & they board too!

Every member of the staff cares for our dog as if they were their own (maybe better!). In particular, our little Frenchie is full of energy and WMCP allows her... read more positive outlets for it in ways that result in training she doesn’t even know is happening. And it’s training us in the meantime. It really is like dropping her off at daycare to play with her friends—canine and human alike. Oggie loves WMCP and all the puppy friends she has made there!

She’s a changed dog! Still hiper but much happier! Loves the tread mill and all around a better pup!! Looks forward to visiting her old pals!

Fun group play for my dog!
