Good Buddy Albuquerque Dog Trainer Works in Your Home
Our mission at Good Buddy Dog Training is to facilitate the bond between dogs and their owners through positive training. We teach dogs to accomplish new behaviors and humans to bring out the best in their pets.
Personalized Albuquerque Puppy Training
It’s great to start puppy training early before bad behaviors pop up. And owners and puppies that train together have a stronger bond. With Good Buddy Dog Training, our puppy training course is an eight-week, in-home training program for puppies. We recommend this training for puppies between 10-20 weeks old. In this course, our trainer will teach basic skills like house training, getting ready to go on a walk, curb nipping, biting, and chewing, and more.
Adult Dog Training in Albuquerque
When dogs leave that puppy phase, it’s not too late to train them! In fact, many of our dog training clients are adult dogs. From five months on, dogs are eligible for our in-home, eight-week program that teaches dogs and owners the ten skills every dog should know. We also help owners be better leaders and communicators so they can have the best possible relationships with their dogs.

Good Buddy Dog Training offers personalized, in-home private dog training in Albuquerque, tailored to address issues like excessive barking, leash pulling, and other behavior problems. Our certified trainers use positive reinforcement techniques to create lasting behavior change and strengthen the bond between you and your pet.

About Good Buddy Dog Training and Owner, Paul Falardeau CPDT-KA
When Paul began fostering dogs in 2014, it became clear that dogs responded well to him, and he loved working with them. Paul learned under a dog training expert and turned his passion into his full-time gig, becoming a Certified Dog Training Instructor. Paul believes dogs are important members of our families and deserve the best private training, care, housing, and nutrition. And Good Buddy only uses positive dog training methods.
What Our Customers Are Saying
Frequently Asked Questions
As a Rio Rancho dog trainer, we work with people and their dogs in their homes to teach them the basic skills every dog should know. For each customer, we take our basic skills list and add or take away from that list, based on the customer’s desires. It truly is a customizable experience. We also offer Advanced Dog Training for those pups who have mastered their basic skills.
Only you can determine what is “worth it” or not. We can tell you that it’s only worth what the owner is willing to put into it. Our mission is to help build the bond between dogs and their owners through positive training methods, so owner involvement is crucial. And we can help bring peace to your home and the joy of having a pet that maybe wasn’t there before.
We’re proud to say we have 50+ 5-star reviews on Google, and that’s because we care very much about making sure people have an excellent experience with their training. While there are other people out there you can hire for dog training in the area, we hope our track record speaks for itself.
At Good Buddy Dog Training, we only use positive-based training. We don’t believe in shock collars, prong collars, or other negative behavior correction. We want the training process to be fun for both the dog and its owner.
Because the program outcomes are truly based on the relationship with the owner and the dog, I can’t make any guarantees. I give you all the tools you need to be successful, and it’s up to you to reinforce with practice outside of our times together. I also have great success with almost every dog, but I am not a behaviorist. So, if your dog exhibits aggressive behavior, it’s possible that I would refer you to another specialist.
We Love Albuquerque, NM
Albuquerque is the largest city in New Mexico, and there are so many great things to do here that it’s easy to see why. Visit the historic Old Town Plaza for shopping, dining, and art galleries. The ABQ BioParks are also in Albuquerque and are a great destination for families and nature lovers. Another great feature of the city is that the Rio Grande River runs through it, providing ample opportunity for kayaking, rafting, and stand-up paddleboarding. And we couldn’t forget to mention the epic Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta located here each fall. Balloonists from all over the world converge in Albuquerque for the largest balloon festival in the world.
