Calm. Reliable. Real-World Obedience.

Professional dog training for families who want structure, clarity, and lasting results — at home and in public.

Serving Kentucky families through evaluation-based programs.

What Family Favorite Canine Does

Family Favorite Canine specializes in structured obedience training designed to produce calm, reliable dogs that hold up in real-world environments.

Our programs are built for families who want clarity, consistency, and a dog they can confidently live with — not quick fixes or temporary results.

  • Home and public obedience

  • Clear structure for dogs and owners

  • Education that lasts beyond the program

Training Programs

Evaluation-based programs built for real life — at home and in public.

Foundation Obedience

On-leash obedience training focused on structure, neutrality, and reliability in the home and public environments.

Real-World Obedience

On- and off-leash training designed to build reliable behavior around real-life distractions.

Puppy Raise & Train

A structured start for puppies beginning at 8 weeks of age, built to create clarity from day one.

How Training Works

Evaluation

We begin with an evaluation to understand the dog, the household, and the goals before recommending any program.

Structured Training

Training is customized to the dog and environment, focusing on calm behavior and reliability in real life.

Owner Education

Owners are trained alongside the dog to ensure clarity, consistency, and lasting results.

Go-Home Delivery

Every program concludes with personal delivery of the dog and an in-home training session.

Who This Training Is For

A Good Fit For:

  • Families who value structure and consistency

  • Owners who want to be educated, not replaced

  • Dogs that need calm, real-world reliability

  • Households willing to follow through after training

Not a Good Fit For:

  • Owners looking for quick fixes or shortcuts

  • Drop-off training with no owner involvement

  • Price-shopping without an evaluation

  • One-size-fits-all programs

Our goal is not to train as many dogs as possible — it’s to work with families who are ready for clarity and lasting change.

Ready for a Clear Recommendation?

Every dog and household is different. The first step is an evaluation to determine the right path forward.
