They take great care of my pups who love this place.

Incredible. Changed my dog. For the better. I’ve got a 7 month year old German Pinscher who was really difficult to manage with my young family. These guys had him for a month and now he is a calm and friendly obedient family dog. Our whole concept of how to love and interact with our dog was wrong and we learned so much from the handover days at the end of his training. Incredible.

I recently enrolled my German Shepherd in the Canine College program with Sharon, Stephanie, and Jim, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their five weeks of training were nothing short of exceptional.From the very beginning, they demonstrated a deep understanding of canine behavior and training techniques. They tailored the program to suit my dog's needs perfectly, ensuring a personalized approach that yielded fantastic results.Sharon's patience and expertise were evident throughout the training sessions. Stephanie's enthusiasm and positive reinforcement techniques really helped my dog stay motivated and engaged. Jim's knowledge of advanced training methods added an extra layer of depth to the program.Not only did my dog learn essential obedience commands, but they also gained confidence and improved their overall behavior. The training environment was safe, supportive, and conducive to learning, making each session enjoyable for both my dog and me.What truly set this program apart was the involvement of me and my daughter as primary caregivers for our dog. We participated in the end-of-training sessions where skills were transferred to us, ensuring that we could maintain and reinforce the obedience skills learned by our dog.When I picked up my dog after the five weeks, I was delighted to see a well-behaved, clean, and groomed pup. The Canine College team not only focused on training but also emphasized the importance of grooming and cleanliness, which I greatly appreciated.I highly recommend the Canine College team to anyone looking for top-notch training for their furry friend. Five stars all around for Sharon, Stephanie, Jim, and the entire team!
