Battleborn Performance K9

I worked with the owner/trainer (Brigette) for a few months of pup training but I wasn't feeling too excited about results. The training was not personalized at all. I was considering switching trainers but Brigette claimed she had a world class obedience course and to consider doing that via her boarding. I was promised regular updates/videos, but that did not happen. There was little info in the few videos provided-so I am unsure how the videos were to help me when my pup came home, especially since she changed how we were training in 1:1 sessions (added correction collars). Without updates, it felt like my pup was just being boarded-rather than trained. I suspect after learning more about Brigette’s schedule-that may have been the case. My pup did not timely respond to any command she gave. I feel my dog walked in with more control with me, then when leaving on a leash with Brigette. Further, I found it upsetting while I was doing things in a positive way at home per her advice, Brigette quickly moved to E-collar training in boarding-without communication as to why and what targets she intended with the new device. Since she did not provide updates on how she used the E-collar, and it also had not been used in any 1:1 training, I feel the entire “training” was a waste of time and money. Last but certainly not least, I feel my dog was worse upon coming home, exhibiting some behaviors not seen prior to boarding. I am walking around with my dog on a leash at all times (including in the home) given she didn't communicate what training she did, and how she used training tools. It didn’t help that Brigette used different command names and then didn’t tell me that either, so my pup had little chance to generalize anything. If my dog had shown improvement, and not actually come home worse in my opinion, that would be one thing but alas, the entire expensive process from 1:1 training, to a board/train was just a huge waste of time and my money in my opinion. Buyer Beware!
