We just finished our first set of training with Cameron as we prepare our puppy to be a therapy dog and cannot say enough good things! Positive approach, individualized sessions, honesty with handlers, and realistic homework/ expectations. Highly recommend for any training needs!

Absolutely loved every minute of training. Cameron and Courtney were so much fun to work with. We learned a ton and now my dog is incredible. Everyone should do a board and train at the Blue Ridge Canine Academy.
If you need help for your fur baby, come see Cameron at Blue Ridge! We took our dog Mercie there just out of her puppy era for obedience training, and we learned a LOT. She did great! That was 3 years ago, and we have her back because she developed high anxiety with the vet. …Read full reviewClose full review
If you need help for your fur baby, come see Cameron at Blue Ridge! We took our dog Mercie there just out of her puppy era for obedience training, and we learned a LOT. She did great! That was 3 years ago, and we have her back because she developed high anxiety with the vet. In a short period of time we’ve learned so much AGAIN, and with Cameron’s help and diligent homework we are so proud of her (and US!). She is definitely a drama queen, but we believe her next vet visit will be uneventful and not an OSCAR winning performance!. Highly recommend Blue Ridge!
Cameron is an amazing trainer and has really done wonders for my dog! My dog is a working breed with lots of energy and the training has made a world of difference in his behavior on leash, how he greets people, as well as how he greets other dogs. Blue Ridge Canine Academy is the place to go if you want results!
Cameron is a great trainer! He is very knowledgeable in his practice, and does his best to individualize training sessions to meet our dog’s needs.
