Family owned business that knows dog training. Our shepherd can hold a down stay for 7 minutes. That's a big deal. I love this place and we are signing up for their off-leash classes as well.

Haywood and his team are the absolute best! They have been incredibly helpful and kind and supportive while helping turn our German Shepherd pup into a "fine canine citizen" as they say. We opted for the day-care package and it was a delight. Easy drop off and pickup. Incredible value for the price given how much attention and training our Fletcher received. Never once were we even the slightest bit dissatisfied with anything. Special shout outs to Marshall, Sarah, and Jason who have been just awesome. You can tell they're all good folks because our dog gets as excited and loving when he sees them as he does with someone in the family. Thank you so much.
Academy Dog Training is the place to go in the area. All the instructors are kind and patient with helpful training solutions for each animal. Will be coming back!
Good trainers with great understanding of dog behavior.
