Why trust Courteous Canine?

Founded in 2008, we are the leading dog training and dog care facility serving Rhode Island. We offer private pet dog training and behavior modification, puppy training and socialization, a range of dog training classes, dog and puppy playgroups, dog sports, pet first aid training, and therapy dog classes.

For years, families have turned to Courteous Canine to: train their dogs in a fun, supportive environment; get real-life skills for outside the classroom; give their dog great social time, exercise, and stimulation; use only positive training methods based on canine behavioral science; and learn from expert trainers recommended by local vets and humane societies.
