All the staff that we met were extremely friendly and worked with us every step of the way. Everything from scheduling to payment we were able to have designed for our dog and family. We appreciate the amazing work they did in just two weeks and are happy that we have their support in the training process going forward. Our dog has seen an amazing turn around since being home and we couldn’t be more satisfied with their service, only critique is that a tour of the kennels would have made leaving our boy in someone else’s hands easier

Nate, Jodi, and the rest of the bowsers team went above and beyond training our dog, Thor. Please read this and understand you will NEVER find better trainers than Bowsers. My husband and I were worried to spend more money on training because we had tried it with different companies in the area and it NEVER worked. We felt lost and had given up even walking our dog in the neighborhood due to his reactivity but within TEN MINUTES we knew that Bowsers was the real deal. They are SO passionate about their job and can tell they truly love and care for each dog they train and they do it FOR THE DOG! They came out and did a free consultation, 4 at home sessions, a 2 week boot camp, and we will be doing 4 more follow thru sessions. They were very thorough and sent a quote within 1 hr of leaving our evaluation. Our dog came home from his 2 week boot camp healthy, happy, and 100% trained. They gave you thoroughly instruction on how to continue the training and ensure your dog a great life. During his debriefing session there was a moment that I had thor in a heel and I did a quick turn and he followed me 100% and it almost had me in tears because I NEVER thought I would be able to walk my dog in public again. Thor and I have gone to hobby lobby already and he got belly rubs from STRANGERS! Seeing my dog enjoying and LOVING his life again is a beautiful gift…and BOWSERS GAVE US THAT! ❤️

We cannot recommend Bowser’s Dog Services enough! Our dog, Albus, was dog reactive and had little to no basic obedience training. Thanks to Nate, Jodi, and the Team, Albus has come home a totally different dog. From start to finish Team Bowser put our family and our dog’s needs above everything else. They not only taught Albus how to exist around other dogs, but they taught us as owners how to read and understand our dog. We would leave 10 stars if we could and will definitely be using their other services in the future!

Words can not even express how truly amazing bowser dog service is. I am a veterinary technician and I got my pup Delgado when he was 4 months old. He was in the beginning showing signs as if he was scared of people and growling and snarling. I tried to just train him myself but what I didn’t realize is that I was doing everything completely wrong. Delgado was getting worse and he bit a girl that tried to pet him after I told her not to do that was the first time I was really starting to worry then he bit my sisters boyfriends friend inside my home. Then he bit another person in my home. Delgado is a cane corse and American staffordshire terrier mix so because of his breeds I was very scared he would bite the wrong person and have serious consequences. I was desperate to find training then my boyfriends aunt recommended them! I was not expecting such amazing service and outstanding results. I had to send my baby boy away for a month but he came back so great. The entire time nate was sending me videos of Delgado progressing and I realized that he wasn’t the problem I was. Delgados issues came from having a nervous owner. I am still working on being a better owner for him and I can’t imagine going anywhere else. THESE PEOPLE KNOW DOGS. They train you as well and don’t make you feel stupid or alone I would recommend them time and time again. My boy went from not being able to be around people animals and just cooped up in the house because I was so afraid of what would happen to being out with me and we’re still learning but he got the best training from bowsers dog training.
