About

Peggy Moran's School for Dogs

Chicago and Chicago Suburban Dog Training and Dog Behavior Modification:
Reward-based dog training without force, intimidation, pain, or scolding.

We offer fun, humane, affordable dog training in your home throughout Chicago and the Chicago suburbs.

We also offer dog training at our brand new dog boarding and training facility in lovely Manteno, Illinois.

Our dog training field trips provide small group training and socialization in real-world settings throughout the Chicago suburban area.

Group dog training classes are offered through several Chicago suburban park districts and at our new Manteno, Illinois facility.

Dogs are taught through humane interactions, without fear or pain.
Dogs are viewed as subjects, not objects, who are treated with patience and consideration.  Dogs are encouraged to think and make choices in a safe, fun learning environment. Building a relationship with your dog requires your involvement! While it does take some time and thought, the end result is worth your efforts. We will help you understand and connect with your dog in order to make permanent behavior improvements.

Located on a beautiful, private family home and property, dogs receive immersive training while participating as family members. Follow-up training in your home helps you learn how to reinforce, maintain, and enjoy your dog's new education. Pick-up and drop-off service is available.

Peggy is a certified dog trainer and evaluator with a BA in Anthrozoology as well as a proud member of the Pet Professional Guild. See Peggy's C.V. here: http://www.animalsandsociety.org/scholar/p_moran
