Cbowdens Valley Dog School

We’ve been going to Carly since our large, 8 year old Rottweiler mix Quincy was just a pup and she has truly saved our multi-dog household. Quincy absolutely loves going to visit for boarding and it’s worth every penny knowing that he is happy, healthy, and getting a little training refresh every time he goes. We also brought our female chihuahua to Carly for a board and train program when she was having some female dominance issues with our older female mini Aussie and it worked wonders for her confidence and overall control in our house. I’ve always been hesitant of e-collar training, but Carly’s expertise and methods are exceptional. I would recommend Carly to anyone looking to strengthen their training bond and truly learn the best way to add quality to their life with their dog. As an added bonus, she takes great photos while they’re in her care!

I have taken both my labs there. My oldest, almost 8 years ago for the private lessons. Carly is an amazing trainer and helped bring out patience in me I didn’t know I had to work with Ted. Recently, I got another lab who tested my patience to end so I enrolled her in the 3 week board and train. Picked Stella up last evening and first thought Carly was trying to send me home with someone else’s dog. She did amazing work and kept me informed over the 3 weeks of her progress. Strongly recommend Cbowdens Valley Dog School for any of your needs. Carly’s background makes her very knowledgeable with not only training but health needs as well. 5 plus stars if I could.

I don't know if we caught this trainer on a bad day or what, but we rescued a 1 year old stray and she needed her basic training. We called up trying to get information about dog training and she told us that we had made a terrible mistake and that we needed to find another home for the dog. Luckily we found another local dog trainer and the dog has been a great addition to our family. A strange interaction all around and I can't recommend.
