About
The focus of Family Dog Training is the family dog and building the bond between person and pet through positive training along with fun and games. Once you build that bond, living with your dog becomes more enjoyable.
I enjoy seeing the bond between person and dog grow and develop while building the behaviors that allow the dog to integrate into family life.

Kris furrow is great and easy to communicate with. She’s punctual and knowledgeable. Clearly she knows what she’s doing and is patient with owners upon beginning the training. She’s a dog lover who has found the right career. I’d recommend reaching out to her no matter your situation.

I learned a lot from my session with Family DogTraining. The trainer was able to get by 6-month puppy to follow her commands right away and showed us several techniques to use to practice with her. She had a lot of really helpful hand-outs and written materials so I didn't have to take notes-- very professionally done. I found her to be knowledgeable and clearly experienced. We are having our puppy spayed in a couple weeks but I can see us hiring her again. I can't recommend her highly enough.
