Tailored Lifestyle Training for the Modern Dog

Utah, USA

We spend countless hours over many years with our dogs, and expect them to integrate into our busy lives and handle every situation with manners and confidence. Why settle for disruptive behavior when you could have a well-mannered companion to take on every adventure! Sick of teasing your dog with a treat every time you need them to listen? Find yourself repeating commands over and over while your dog does whatever they want? You have come to the right place. Let your dog enjoy the freedom that comes from listening to your every command. We will set you and your dog up for success even under the biggest distractions!

We are a small, locally-owned professional dog training business servicing the Salt Lake valley. We offer a wide variety of training options ranging from puppy foundations to complete off-leash obedience and everything in between. Call us for a free consultation and we will find the best training plan for you and your dog!

Board and Train

Leave it to the professionals! A board and train is a full-immersion lifestyle change for your dog; your dog will stay in the trainer’s home and be treated like family. Each dog is handled exclusively by the trainer, so every interaction is an important learning moment. Full-immersion training is a great option for dogs that need a full behavior make-over, or want to learn all the basics to set a solid foundation for life.

Private Lessons

Do you want to learn how to train your dog yourself? Do you just have one specific behavior that needs work? Private lessons is the perfect answer! Get professional guidance to learn how to train your dog at home. E-collar training excluded.

Feedback from previous clients

“Kelly did such an amazing job taking care of my dog and teaching him basic obedience and e collar that now allows me to take him anywhere. She sent me photos all the time and checked in with his progress regularly. She also did a great job teaching me how to use the e collar and even typed up directions on what new things my dog learned and how to keep working on them. Without a doubt Kelly is the best there is for boarding and training.”

“Kelly is absolutely AMAZING! We seriously love her and our Bear loves her too! She has helped our black lab tremendously! He now walks perfectly on a leash and he now knows when it’s time to relax and much more! We did her 3 week program over the summer and it was the best thing we ever did for our Bear! She updated us every single day and sent pictures and she is always there STILL if we ever have any questions! I feel like it’s hard to find a good trainer that you trust your fur baby with and she is definitely one that will love your dog and treat your dog like they are her own! So if you are on the fence I say DO IT! It’s SOOOOO worth every single penny!”

-Cheyenne, Joey & Bear

“Kelly did a great job with our puppy! We received daily notes, and pictures of how things were going. She laid the foundation for helping us to have a well behaved dog, now we just keep consistent with what she was taught. Kelly also checks in to see how training is going and is willing to make suggestions and come and help when brushing up is needed.”

“Stephen was a bit on the wild side to say the least. After 3 weeks of doggie camp he is a mellow loving dog. He seems very happy and not near as stressed. Kelly is a wonderful poodle whisperer! I highly recommend Wild West Dog Training!!”

-Jen & Stephen

“Kelly does an outstanding job with our young border collie. After working with her our border collie has developed more patience and concentration during stressful situations. We love taking our dog everywhere with us and Kelly’s training has tremendously helped with that. Highly recommend!!”
