Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do you do therapy dog tests or training here?
At this time (April 2017), we do not offer therapy dog testing. However, we do offer AKC Canine Good Citizen testing which is a prerequisite for some therapy dog tests, and some of our group class students have gone on to pass the therapy dog test. We can help you train your dog toward this goal.

I hardly ever post public reviews but I have to make an exception for Crossbones. These folks are as expert and professional as they are kind and conscientious. Our pup is a super handful and they have helped her--and us--so much. She's been in puppy day school, educational pup care, and we've taken multiple classes and will keep doing so. In our travels with our pup we've met lots of caring and terrific doggo professionals in this tough and demanding industry, but Crossbones is absolutely tops.
Pat is the best w/patience and experience. There is no one better. Seymour loves her! She’s
I enrolled my pup in Crossbones training program, and I was extremely happy with the results and the training both my pup and I received!
PJ is a great trainer!
