We trained with Dog Ops for our 3-4 month old Labradoodle, Poppy. We enrolled in the 2-week board and stay program, which exceeded our expectations. Initially, I worried that Poppy was too young, but George, the dog trainer, proved me wrong. He sent videos of her progress, which blew my mind, as she learned so much in just 5 days. George visited our home for follow-up training, which solidified her learning. I needed training as well, to ensure I could follow through with George's instructions. He made sure I understood everything before leaving and was always available for questions. I highly recommend Dog Ops and would work with them again. Poppy has become a well-behaved dog, listening attentively and following commands. I was initially hesitant about using an e-collar, but after seeing its effectiveness, I changed my mind. If you have similar concerns, I suggest watching videos on Dog Ops' social media to understand how it works. Overall, Dog Ops is a top-notch training facility, earning 5 out of 5 stars.
I viewed some of your videos and was impressed by your method of training. I'm looking forward to having you work with my dog.

Hands down the best decision we could have made! Dog Ops far exceeded our expectations. We sent our 3 month old puppy in hopes of getting ahead of training early. Our puppy came back to our house 150% better than he left. He follows all basic commands, walks politely on a leash, is able to be controlled in chaotic situations, plays nicely with our kids, does not jump or take food, waits to be greeted by guests, etc. The communication from George to us before, during, and after training was phenomenal. We were able to visit the facility and discuss the program with him in detail prior to starting. He answered all of our questions and is very knowledgeable and passionate in his field. The at-home sessions after training were the perfect touch to a completed program. He transitioned the training to us and our home and worked on several specifics to our lifestyle and environment. All in all, I’d give Dog Ops 10 stars, if possible.

Look no further for your puppy trainer needs! We sent our 4 month old mal puppy for the 2 week program and couldn't have asked for more. It's clear his work is done with a true passion and the results show that. Great communication with updates throughout the training and he’s been back to our house twice to ensure the transition has been smooth. Would use him again if we ever got another dog without hesitation.
