Destination Dog Training • July 30, 2025

Proud to Lead the Pack in Quality, Consistency, and Results

We’re excited to share that Destination Dog Training has been recognized as one of the Best Dog Training Schools in Phoenix by The Phoenix Review—and we’re proud to be listed #1 overall with perfect 5/5 ratings across both consumer and editorial scoring.



This recognition isn’t just a badge of honor—it’s a reflection of the consistent effort, passion, and care we pour into every training session. What sets this award apart is how it was earned: through a comprehensive scoring system that takes into account real client feedback, accessibility, professionalism, years of experience, and overall expertise. These aren’t just boxes we aim to check—they’re the foundation of how we operate every single day.

Why This Matters

The Phoenix Review evaluates training schools based on strict criteria, including review consistency across platforms, training approach, and client feedback. Destination Dog Training was the only facility to earn a perfect score in every category, including:


  • Google, Yelp, and Facebook review scores
  • Responsiveness and professionalism
  • Years of experience and overall expertise


Being named #1 on a list filled with other respected trainers is a testament to the consistent, reliable results we produce—not just in obedience, but in building stronger bonds between dogs and their humans.

What Makes Us Different

From day one, we’ve taken a personalized, real-world approach to dog training. Every dog that walks through our doors receives a custom plan that works for their behavior, lifestyle, and environment. Our programs focus on real-life skills like calmness in public spaces, polite behavior at home, and confidence in any setting.



We're proud to be more than a place that teaches dogs to “sit” or “stay.” We help families live better lives with their dogs—and that’s what makes this recognition so meaningful.

Thank You for Your Support

To our amazing clients, community, and every dog we’ve had the privilege to train—thank you. Your support, reviews, and trust are what continue to push us to grow and raise the standard for what dog training can be in Phoenix and beyond.
