Hear From Our Satisfied Customer
"Ken did an amazing job with Dakota, our mini Bernedoodle. In just two weeks, she was well versed in basic commands. Ken kept us updated on her progress and shared videos of her training along the way. The best part was teaching us. We feel much more confident in how to continue her training, and we know Ken is always there for questions and support.''

Why Our Board and Train Programs Stand Out?
Why Us: Merritt Dog Training stands out for our commitment to real-world applicability, deep behavioral understanding, and lifelong learning. Our expert team in Charlotte, NC, is dedicated to not just training your dog, but also empowering you with the knowledge and skills to maintain and advance those behaviors. Our programs are structured around three pivotal training phases to ensure a holistic behavioral trasnformation for your dog.

This training phase is about building a deeper connection, enabling you to guide your dog's behavior effectively in any situation, ensuring they remain focused and responsive
