We have a high anxiety dog and 2 kids under 2 years old. Cooper stayed with Ty for 3 weeks and came home with the ability to relax when we are away and calm down when we return. Ty was very communicative and gave us good strategies to work on at home. Highly recommend.

Best experience ever! Our four month mini Dachshund, Gia went through training with Ty and Laura. She returned home a new puppy. Their training is professional and thorough. The training is tailored to your pets needs, definitely not cookie-cutter training. As pet owners your needs are taken into consideration also. We highly recommend Bow Wow and we fully intend to maintain a long term relationship with Bow Wow to accommodate Gia’s and our lives. Camylle, Jim and Gia

My little pup Elvis just finished a 5 day boarding stay and I could not be happier with this business. From the moment they picked my dog up to transport him to the house I felt comfortable. Being nervous in the car they allowed him to sit in the passenger seat rather than in the back of the van in a crate alone. I received pictures and videos everyday of Elvis off leash exploring, sniffing, and playing with the other dogs. I know he had a good time because he has been sleeping since he got home! I will be using this service whenever I need to go out of town.

Great experience with Bow Wow Behavioral! We did a 1-week board and train for our 3yo mini-goldendoodle. Our training goals focused on barking and leash walking. There was noticeable improvement in our pup's behaviors after his time with Ty and Laura. It's also worth noting that we have only boarded our dog once before, and it was a less than enjoyable experience - it took days for him to return to "normal". But with Bow Wow Behavioral's board and train program, our pup not only learned but had a great time!
My wife and I hired Ty to help us with our dogs fear based aggression and other challenges. The sessions were informative and practical. We are more confident and continue to see progress with her behavior. We recommend Bow Wow Behavioral.
