Is Brain Training for Dogs worth it?
Yes for everyday obedience, from a CPDT-KA certified trainer, at one $67 charge.
What $67 actually gets you
Unlocked instantly, no shipping, no physical copy.
- 7 modules, 21 named games (Preschool through Einstein)
- Bonus course "Behavior Training for Dogs" ($67 value, per the seller), Obedience 101 and 7 trick videos
- Adrienne's Archive of 100+ articles, the private forum and her email support
if you buy through them. One charge of $67, billed by ClickBank as retailer of record and shown on the statement as "CLKBANK*BrainTrainDogs", with a 60-day money-back window that starts on the purchase date. The course is digital: nothing ships.
The course, as its author pictures it
Product images of the course are the seller's own, published by Adrienne Farricelli on the Brain Training for Dogs sales page we link to. They are a mockup of a digital course: nothing physical ships. The photographs of dogs and owners on this page are our illustrations.
The long verdict, and who it suits
Yes, if you want a structured, game-based way to build focus and everyday obedience with a real, credentialed method behind it. Adrienne Farricelli is a CPDT-KA certified trainer, and the course backs that up with a genuine curriculum: 7 modules, 21 named games, and a force-free method: no shock collar, no dominance drills.
The offer is honest once you read it slowly: one $67 charge, no upsell tab on either of our checkout reads, and a 60-day guarantee that ClickBank's own retailer policy backs.
The one place to slow down is the sales page's claim that its games can cure almost any behavior problem. We don't repeat that.
For everyday obedience and boredom-behaviors, this is a legitimate, well-built course; for real reactivity, aggression, or diagnosed anxiety, bring in a certified trainer or veterinary behaviorist alongside it.
Good fit, if you
- want a structured, game-based way to build focus, impulse control, and everyday obedience
- prefer a force-free method with a real, checkable trainer credential behind it
- are fine with a fully digital course: videos and PDFs, no DVDs, played from a phone or laptop
- want a real 60-day guarantee, backed by the platform and not only the seller's word
Think twice, if you
- have a dog with severe reactivity, aggression, or diagnosed anxiety: the sales page suggests this course can cure it, and we don't endorse that; pair a program like this with a certified trainer or veterinary behaviorist first
- want a physical box or DVD set: it's digital only, so bring a phone, tablet, or laptop out to the yard with you
What happens after you click, step by step
The three steps, from the click to instant access
- Click the link above. It opens the seller's own sales letter for Brain Training for Dogs in a single redirect; the "Instant Access" button on that page takes you to ClickBank's own order form.
- The order form's own line item reads "Brain Training for Dogs PLUS Exclusive Bonuses," one single charge for the sales letter's $67 offer; the crossed-out $127 is the seller's own anchor on the sales letter, and ClickBank's form shows the total in your local currency. Neither of our two checkout reads showed an upsell tab, an installment plan, or a pre-checked add-on box; a one-time "extra 10% off" exit popup is the only extra we saw, and it appears to be that same 10% off, not an extra item. On your card statement the charge shows as "CLKBANK*BrainTrainDogs".
- Instant digital access: the modules, bonuses, private forum, and Adrienne's email support unlock right after checkout completes. There is nothing to ship, no DVDs, no box, just an account you log into from a phone, tablet, or laptop. The 60-day money-back window starts on your purchase date. To use it, email the seller (her own words: "just shoot me a quick email"), or go through ClickBank's own support, since ClickBank's retailer policy covers any product it sells within 60 days of purchase.

Curriculum and bonus names quoted from the seller's own "Sneak Peak at What You Get Inside" section, read verbatim on August 31, 2026.
How much of the mechanism is real?
The course's core idea, that mental stimulation reshapes a dog's behavior the way it reshapes a human brain, is a real mechanism stretched further than the evidence goes.
Read plainly, in three parts:
What is real, what is stretched, and what stays a professional's job
Ingredient-level science summarized from established animal-enrichment and behavioral research, read against the seller's own claims on August 31, 2026. Nothing here claims this course treats a diagnosed medical or behavioral condition; that stays a professional's territory.
Meet the trainer behind the games
The credential, and what we could not verify
Adrienne Farricelli is a CPDT-KA certified dog trainer, credentialed by the CCPDT (Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers), a real, publicly searchable certifying body, established in 2001, that requires both a minimum of 300 hours of hands-on experience and a passing exam to earn the CPDT-KA.
We confirmed that the CCPDT itself is real and maintains a public directory; we did not personally look up Farricelli's individual entry in that directory, so treat the credential as verifiably real in principle, not as a registration we confirmed ourselves.
Independent of the course's own sales funnel, a long-running author profile under her name on HubPages carries the byline "Adrienne Farricelli CPDT-KA, Dip.CBST" on a third-party platform she does not control.
The sales page also carries two third-party endorsements.
We do not repeat either here: one is signed by the author of a book that Farricelli herself contributed a chapter to, a relationship the seller's own About page discloses, so we treat it as a colleague's endorsement, not independent proof; the other, credited to a veterinary advisor, we were not able to verify ourselves.
The 60-day guarantee: whose promise backs it?
The seller's own sales letter, verbatim:
"Use the insider information you get in this course for the next 60 days... If for any reason... or no reason... you feel Brain Training for Dogs isn't everything I say it is... I want you to ask for, and get your money back... just shoot me a quick email, and I'll give you back your money. No questions asked."
Whose promise backs the 60 days
The stronger confirmation comes from ClickBank's own checkout, not just the seller's letter.
ClickBank states its platform-wide policy plainly: it "will allow for the return or replacement of any product within 60 days from the date of purchase."
Because that is the retailer's policy and not only the seller's promise, it holds regardless of what happens to this specific course later.
The clock starts on your purchase date, confirmed the same way in both places.
Before you order: rebill watch and smart-shopper notes
ClickBank's own marketplace lists this offer with a rebill flag turned on, while none of the four public pages we read shows a subscription price or a recurring charge. Plan for one $67 charge and check your statement for a few months afterwards.
What we could and could not resolve about that flag
ClickBank's own marketplace lists this offer with a rebill flag turned on.
We read all four public pages tied to this course, the sales letter, the checkout (twice), the seller's partner recruitment page, and its privacy policy, and none of them show a subscription price, a recurring charge, or a continuity program.
That gap could mean a leftover setting from an older version of the product, a post-purchase upsell we can't see without buying, or simply a stale marketplace configuration.
We can't resolve it from the outside, so plan for one $67 charge, and then actually check your card statement for a few months afterward for any repeat charge labeled "CLKBANK*BrainTrainDogs" beyond the first one.
If one shows up, ClickBank's own support and your card issuer can both help you stop it.
- It's a fully digital course: no DVDs, despite marketing graphics that still show a disc case. Bring a phone, tablet, or laptop out to the yard with you.
- A one-time "extra 10% off" popup may appear if you try to leave the checkout. It appears to be that same 10% off, not an add-on item.
- Save your order confirmation email. It's your fastest path back into the course and to Adrienne's direct email support if you ever need it.
- The fine print next to the pay button just says you agree to ClickBank's own Terms of Sale; we did not read that document ourselves, so check it if you want the full legal terms.
What this means for you: plan for one $67 charge labeled "CLKBANK*BrainTrainDogs", keep the confirmation email, and if a second charge ever appears, ClickBank's own support and your card issuer can both stop it.
FetchBench rule of thumb: judge any training course against your own dog's temperament, not a testimonial. Give a new game curriculum a few real weeks before deciding, and keep your order confirmation email either way.
If a 7-module, 21-game curriculum for one $67 charge is the kind of training you came looking for, Brain Training for Dogs is the course mapped on this page.

Who reads this bench
Photos are for illustration.
Every question, answered plainly
Is Brain Training for Dogs legit?
Yes, in the sense that matters most: a real, named trainer runs it, the CPDT-KA credential she claims comes from the CCPDT, a genuine certifying body with a public directory (we confirmed the body is real; we did not personally look up her individual listing), and checkout runs through ClickBank, an established digital retailer with its own 60-day return policy.
It is not legit in the sense of curing any behavior problem, a claim the sales page makes that we do not endorse.
Does Brain Training for Dogs work?
The underlying idea, that mental stimulation through structured games reduces boredom-driven behavior and builds focus, is grounded in real environmental-enrichment research, and force-free training is the current consensus approach among veterinary behavior groups.
For everyday obedience and boredom behaviors, 21 structured games are a legitimate method.
For a dog with real reactivity, aggression, or diagnosed anxiety, this course is not a cure by itself; pair it with a certified trainer or veterinary behaviorist.
How much does Brain Training for Dogs cost?
$67 one-time, per the seller's own sales letter read on August 31, 2026; the checkout we read twice showed one single line item and nothing else.
The seller's own sales page shows a crossed-out $127 next to that price; that number is the seller's anchor, not a price you actually pay.
We found no upsell tab, no installment plan, and no pre-checked add-on box on either of our two checkout reads.
What is the refund policy?
60 days from your purchase date. Both the seller's own guarantee text and ClickBank's checkout, which states its platform-wide return policy for any digital product sold through it, agree on the window and the start date.
Because ClickBank's own policy backs it, not only the seller's promise, this is a sturdier guarantee than most.
Brain Training for Dogs vs Doggy Dan, which is better?
We have not published a full review of Doggy Dan yet, and our research for this page covers only Brain Training for Dogs, so we cannot compare them claim for claim.
What we can vouch for here: Brain Training for Dogs is a 7-module, 21-game cognitive-stimulation curriculum at $67 one-time with a 60-day ClickBank-backed guarantee.
Once Doggy Dan has been on our bench, the head-to-head will live here.
How do I log in or access Brain Training for Dogs after buying?
Access is digital and unlocks right after checkout completes; there is no physical DVD to wait for, despite marketing graphics that still show a disc case.
We have not tested the login flow ourselves since that requires an actual purchase.
The course does include direct email support from Adrienne, which is the natural place to turn if you ever lose your access details.
How we checked this
How we checked this, source by source
This is a research review: on August 31, 2026 we read the seller's full sales letter, the checkout twice (both reads showing the same single line item and no upsell), the seller's own partner recruitment page, its About page, and its privacy policy, word for word.
Everything specific here traces back to one of those five pages, or to the two public sources named on this page: the CCPDT's own site and a long-running HubPages author profile.
How the 9.1 is built
Our own rule for anything at 9.0 or above: three reasons, each one checkable at the source. Here they are.
- One charge, checked twice. $67 on the seller's own order form, read twice on August 31, 2026: no upsell tab, no installment plan and no pre-checked add-on box on either read. The $127 beside it is the seller's own struck anchor rather than a price anyone pays.
- A 60-day refund window somebody else honours. ClickBank is the retailer of record here, and the 60-day money-back window comes from ClickBank's own published policy, so the refund does not depend on the author answering an email.
- A curriculum you can count, from a credential that exists. Seven modules and 21 named games, mapped on this page from the seller's own materials, taught by a CPDT-KA trainer whose certification is issued by the CCPDT, using a force-free method with no shock collar and no dominance drills.
What the number does not cover: the sales page's claim that these games can cure almost any behaviour problem. We print that claim and refuse to repeat it, and one line credited to a veterinary advisor stayed unverifiable to us.
- The seller's five named testimonials on the sales page (first name plus last initial, "Dog Owner") are not independently verifiable; we do not use them as our own evidence.
- The sales page carries two third-party endorsements. We do not repeat either: one credits the author of a book the trainer herself contributed a chapter to, disclosed on the seller's own About page; the other we could not verify ourselves.
- We did not look up Adrienne Farricelli's individual name in the CCPDT's public certification directory; we confirmed only that the CCPDT itself is a real, independent certifying body. The directory is public and searchable if that matters to you.
- The market-size statistics on the seller's partner recruitment page come from their partner pitch, not from our own research; we don't repeat them as fact.
- We tested our own tracking link on August 31, 2026: it resolves cleanly to the seller's own sales page in a single redirect, with no error and no whitelist block.
- Nothing on this page is veterinary or professional dog-training advice; a dog with real aggression, reactivity, or anxiety deserves an in-person evaluation.
What this means for you: the $67, the single line item, and the 60-day window you will see at checkout are the same figures we read on the seller's own pages, so this page and the order form should match.
