Dog Woods Training Center

Dog Woods saved me! Having a new puppy who is growing fast and soon to be 70 lbs plus, I needed help to guide all this puppy energy. Counter surfing, darting out any open door, jumping on everyone that enters, ignoring us when we call her, obsessed with tearing up paper, inability to walk on a leash are a few of her annoying puppy behaviors. With Fred only 4 months old, I enrolled her in beginner obedience class. First 2 classes Fred was arguably the worse in the class. I reiterated the training we learned in our one hour classes by taking 15-20 minutes 4-5 days a week. After only 6 weeks, Fred now heels on leash, sits and stays on command, greets visitors without jumping on them, and comes (most) of the time she is called. My friends and family are so impressed with how well behaved Fred has become in such a short time. Little effort with great gains. When someone knocks on the door, we simple tell Fred to sit. I am so impressed with how Donna at Dogwoods has helped us make Fred such a good puppy. Having a well behaved puppy makes us want Fred involved in everything we do. I am so impressed with Fred's progress, we are enrolling in the intermediate class. Can't wait to see Fred polish up her good puppy skills!

Wish I could rate it higher than a 5! We love everything about Dogwoods - makes the drive worth it! My 11 month old schnoodle does a happy dance when I ask him if he wants to go to school! We've taken obedience, agility, and nose work classes and will soon add the rally and therapy dog classes. Best of all, he attends day training twice a week where they reinforce what we've been working on in class as well as working on my personal goals for him. He also gets lots of socialization time. He LOVES Donna and Michael (I may be a tiny bit jealous! ) They are amazingly talented, have years of experience, provide lots of love, praise, encouragement and reinforcement. They are always willing to answer any question and appear to truly care about your dog.
