How soon can you start your dog in this?
They take new dogs weekly usually. They are absolutely wonderful about getting your dog the training they need!!! I have brought all 4 of my dogs here, & they don’t usually make you “wait until the next class starts” as there are Always dogs, & Their Humans in need of help!! 👍🏼❤️

Excellent training experience! I worked with Shelley and Holly to prepare my 3-year-old Old English Sheepdog to become a therapy dog, and I learned so much throughout the process. They provided clear guidance on both the legal aspects and the real-world expectations of therapy dog work. I now feel confident and well-prepared for our next steps. Highly recommend!

Holly’s classes have truly changed our relationship with our dog and his relationship with the world! He is much more confident, connected, and calm following completing both the beginner and advanced classes. Prior to finding All Breeds, we had struggled to find a training program in which our dog wasn’t the only small breed member. We also hoped for an instructor that was knowledgeable and adaptable enough to meet some of our particular pup’s special health needs. We feel very lucky to have found Holly! Her training has exceeded our expectations, making obedience not just a “have to,” for us but an enjoyable hobby. Holly trains from a classic, experienced approach while also modernizing the training to include empathy and connection. Her instruction is clear and consistent, making logical sense. Classes also include humor, encouragement, and honesty without judgment. Our pup went from whining, leash pulling, and overwhelm to working with us as a team. He now is able to do meet and greets with a variety of people, join us in public (restaurants, stores, etc.), and stay focused when distractions are around. Next, we are very excited to be moving onto her therapy dog training program, something a year ago we would have never thought our little, anxious, special needs pup could have done!
Both of our boyz- (Boxer)Charlie 15 months and (Vizsla) Zoltan 4 months - started training with Holly at just 9 weeks old and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

Both of our boyz- (Boxer)Charlie 15 months and (Vizsla) Zoltan 4 months - started training with Holly at just 9 weeks old and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Starting early was the best decision we made. They still have all the puppy energy, personality, and chaos you’d expect, but they are also well behaved and responsive. Because of that early training, we feel completely confident taking them out with us wherever we go. We highly recommend All Breed Dog Obedience Training to anyone looking to set their dogs up for success from the very beginning. Picture of our boyz at 4 months enjoying the patio 😀
This business has excellent instructors who genuinely care about you and your dog. I took a puppy obedience class that was so helpful in my journey to being a new mom to my Westie.
