Brought my 2 year old German Shepherd, Tanya, to Ivan and Natalia with some obedience issues. After a few short weeks, not only were they resolved but 2 months later, with their help and encouragement , she got her BH with high score in the trial. I highly recommend them. George Gonzalez

How much do training sessions cost?
It varies on if you do a full program or if you have specific issues etc. It' was worth every penny for us. It's board and train only with human training sessions at the end of the board and train.

My one year old boxer "Charlie" took the three accelerated course and the follow up off leash course and they were awesome courses. Charlie has grown to be a wonderful friend and companion.
My 5 month old Belgian Malinois Samba recently took the 3 week Accelerating Obedience Program. Brittany did a great job training Samba and then training me to work with Samba. Brittany was also was helpful in recommending training equipment for Samba. Planning on also doing the off lease training with Samba in the near future.

Extraordinary! We sent our 4 1/2 month old puppy to their Accelerated Obedience Course for 3 weeks. Brittany and the team did an awesome job with our pup, Winston. They also sent videos showing how much of a good time Winston was having boarding with all his friends. We were also able to come to visit him. At the end of training Brittany worked over two separate days with my wife, so she was able to get the same results with Winston as the trainers. They even worked with Winston & myself a week later because I was out of town when he was originally finished. I never imagined our 5 month old puppy would have such control and obedience to stay in the down(lie) position as squirrels and ducks walk within 3 feet of him! We (Winston, my wife & I) can't wait to see him go through the Off the Leash training!

Without a doubt, by far one of the finest places to train your four legged friend!! We brought our Belgian Malinois pup to Dog Training of Tampa Bay, Inc at 16 weeks for obedience training and have gone back multiple times for additional training in other specialized areas. If you are looking for basic obedience training, off leash training, personal protection, competitive sport dog training, and more, this is the place to go! How amazing it is to find a facility with such wonderful and compassionate trainers who are knowledgeable and experienced in all fields to give you a tailored program for you and your family. It is absolutely the best decision and investment we have ever made. Ivan and his staff of trainers took such great care of him while he underwent his training. Always communicating with us and sending us updates and pictures of him which put us at ease. They have a way of instilling confidence in their wonderful methods they use as we continue to work with him outside of training. They foster such a healthy and humane way of training that is refreshing. We get nothing but compliments about how well behaved he is and we have Ivan and his crew to thank. We cannot express how extremely happy we are! We send everyone we know with any type of dog to Ivan knowing that they will undoubtedly be in the best hands. THANK YOU SO MUCH IVAN, NATALIA, AND SPECIAL THANKS TO BRITTANY FOR PUTTING UP WITH SOME ROOKIES IN TRAINING!!
