It’s that time of year again! We’re releasing registration for our social club membership. This is a 12 month membership. During this one year, we meet twice a month for social funtivities with other like minded dog parents! We had 15 spots available for 2025 and 10 of them have been claimed by prior members. That means we only have FIVE spots available for new members! Please DM to ask questions/claim your dogs spot 🥳

Our dogs speak a different language than us, have totally different instincts and urges 🧠

What sometimes looks like resistance or them being “stubborn” is often a lack of clarity in communication and training 🧐

Your dog is doing the best it can with the information you are providing 📖

Reach out today, through the link in our bio, to book a consultation, so neither of you have to struggle to communicate any longer 🫶🏻

You wouldn’t punish a child for getting something wrong on the first shot, so why is a puppy any different? They do not know what they are doing wrong, they’re doing what comes natural to them! And even when you teach them what to do in any given situation or environment, it still takes tons of practice! Remember, we’re asking them to go against their instincts. It takes humans an average of 66 days for a new behavior to become automatic and that’s when they want to make behavior change! 😂

Anytime you are training your dog, make sure you are being fair, flexible and fun!

If you’re dog is bored, or not having a good time - chances are neither are you.

Remember to keep your training sessions short and sweet, always try to end on a good note. 🫶🏻

You get what you reinforce which means all your pets behaviors have a function and reason. 

Meet Monty, the 3lb yorkie. We’re working on potty training, coming when called and walking on leash with this small fry.

We 🫶🏻 when our puppy students graduate kindergarten 🍎📚

A common question we hear when someone brings home an eight week old puppy is when should they start training??

Our answer, immediately.

That does not necessarily mean obedience training though. Our main focus points for puppies consist of potty training, crate, training, addressing mouthing/biting/teething and of course, socialization.

The puppy socialization windows closes at 16 weeks old so it’s imperative to start exposure as soon as possible. Not just to dogs. To people, to body handling, to different environments, hearing and seeing new sights outside your neighborhood.

Book your consultation today and get your dog started off on the right paw 🐾

Meet Cherry! She started working with us this past week. Her owners signed up for private lessons so she could learn how to regulate during play (no jumping or biting) and to work on listening better to obedience commands. In the next few lessons, we are going to be working on engagement and disengagement, overall impulse control, distractions and nipping unwanted behaviors. 

All of our training is tailored to fit every individual dog and families specific needs. We work with everyone’s availability and budget and do not make anyone buy training packages.

Interested in getting your dog trained? Shoot us an email today ☺️ We’re currently booking new students for October.

Patience, planning and practice. Dogs are a non-verbal species. They come pre-programmed to bark, play, chew, dig, p**p and cause mayhem. They don’t speak our language. If you want them to do anything else, send them to school with us 😇 🎓 📕 🧠

The perfect dog does not exist.. neither does the perfect owner. 

It’s easy to look at dogs and their owners on social media and compare yourself (and your dog) to them.

Let’s remember that social media usually focuses on the best parts and nobody talks about the struggles. 

Happy to tell you that you’re both doing great, wherever you are in your training journey. And a good dog isn’t trained over night.

Just kidding, it’s about to be local summer which means everything is going to get a whole lot better around here

Our September registration is now open to new and current clients.

We’ve got a little something for everyone! Pack walks take place at different parks all over Monmouth County. Workshops are led by at a park in Tinton Falls. Both of these offerings happen rain or shine.

Our secret menu is only available to current or former clients and even then, we don’t offer it to everyone.

Please be sure to read through the descriptions and ask questions before signing up! Once payment is received, there are no refunds.

Leave questions below 👇🏻 or DM us to see if your dog would be a good fit.

Dog casting call! 📸

We are looking for good boys and girls of any age to use in content creation this September and October for both photoshoots and video shoots.

These dogs will be taken to different public settings. Because of this, we are looking for dogs with little to no reactivity that have basic or advanced obedience training.

You need to be comfortable with Haylie and I picking your dog up from your house for a few hours at a clip.

These sessions would take place mainly on week days mid morning.

We are looking for dogs who live within 15 minutes of Asbury Park.

Please comment 🙋🏼‍♀️ your dogs name, breed and town you reside in if you’re interested in letting us borrow your pup ☺️

BRITTANY ERICKSON

I started Good Boy Training after a internship with an American Kennel Club (AKC), Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT) on a farm in central New Jersey. I am a Animal Behavior College dog trainer (ABC-DT), a New Jersey Certified Animal Control Officer (ACO), a member of The Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) and Fear Free Pet Professionals. I am a certified level 3 animal Reiki practitioner. I am certified in Pet CPR & First Aid, and veterinarian recommended.

Humane, force-free training is an extremely important practice to me and one of my top priorities as a trainer. Having worked with many adult dogs who struggle with anxiety and reactivity issues, I have a special passion for working with puppies to prevent these issues from developing in the first place. My goal is to provide you with the tools you need to have the dog of your dreams!
