Problem #1: They know Miguel. Like, really know him. His quirks, his crew, his preferred petting style, and what treats he likes. They also know my car which is cool until I realize I’m not even the main character in my car. I’m barely out of my Kia and they’re already yelling “Miguel!!” like he’s the face of Milk-bone.
Problem #2: Miguel has more friends than I do. He’s in a clique. He plays with his buddies like he’s in an exclusive dog fraternity. Every time I pick him up, he’s acting like he just got back from a networking event for cool dogs.
Problem #3: They send me videos. Cute, funny, painfully adorable videos of Miguel doing zoomies, playing tag, eating bubbles, or living his best dog life. It’s honestly rude how much fun he’s having without me. But I save them all. I’ve shown coworkers and strangers unprovoked. I am not okay.
Problem #4: He comes home tired. And I’m not talking a little tired, I mean snoring, dreaming, twitching-paws kind of tired. It’s the kind of rest that says, “I’ve had an emotionally fulfilling day without you.” I’m no longer the center of his universe. I’ve been demoted to spare human status. Miguel’s Uber driver who brings him to his real humans, Athena, Lauren and Brian.
And the most dangerous part? He LOVES it. He sprints to the door. He doesn’t look back. I’m just there to drop him off and pay the bill. He’s living his best life and I’m his part-time assistant. His plus one. I wouldn’t be surprised if he starts packing a bag on daycare mornings. If he knew how to drive, I know he’d drive there and pick up his bestie Luca on the way.
So yes, if you want your dog to be treated like canine royalty, make lifelong friends, get hilarious video updates, and come home blissfully exhausted then Central Bark is the place.
Just be prepared to be demoted to “supporting role” in your own dog’s life. I heard him call me “Background Human #8” the last time I picked him up and he was saying bye to his friends.
17/10. Miguel-approved. Human slightly jealous.

Frequently Asked Questions
The timeline for learning new behaviors and skills is as unique as every dog! Because each dog is an individual, with different learning histories, breed genetics, and preferences in reinforcers like treats and toys, there is no way to say for sure how long training will take. It’s also important to consider how much time each family has for daily training practice.
Whether you’re crate training, leash walking, or potty training your pup, consistency is key. It’s crucial to establish a routine, practice positive reinforcement, supervise your puppy (especially when potty training), and avoid punishing your puppy when mistakes happen.
Central Bark® offers everything you need to help you train your dog, with expert training and classes so you and your pup can learn and bond together.

Not at all! It’s never too early or too late to begin building positive associations and using reward-based methods to teach your puppy new skills and behaviors.
Establish a training schedule now to help your puppy learn desired behaviors like walking nicely on a leash and basic cues like sit, stay, and loose-leash walking. Practicing these skills at home is critical, but it’s always a good idea to enlist the help of a professional to get a jump start teaching your puppy all the things you want them to know and set them up for success! Central Bark® offers everything you need to help you train your dog, including expert training and classes, so you and your puppy can learn and bond together.
