Questions & answers

From Google

What people have asked about this business.

Do the trainers at your facility use e-collars on the dogs?

Yes they use e-collars. It comes at week 5 of the 10 week off leash program. They take the time to thoroughly explain and show you what is going on with the collars. It is not in any way inhumane!! This was by far the best investment that we made in our dog....so much so that when we got our second puppy, I am currently going through the 10 week off leash program with him as well!!! To me, there is no higher praise that I can give someone other than repeat business!

Community answer · Ashley Watkins · 2019-09-21

Yes they use e-collars. It depends on the season that the dog is currently in as to if they are in the e-collar stage. We just completed our 10 week session and we could not be happier.

Community answer · Barry Smith · 2019-09-21

When I was there I did not see any of the dogs with e-callers

We got a German Shepherd from Larry Phan. Chili took your course on 06/ 2016. We didn't we receive much paper work. Can he be re-enrolled with your school and do you have any paperwork showing he is a pure bred? Maureen

You will definitely need to talk to Andy about that

We brought our dog, Fiona, as a last ditch effort because she's an 83+ pound dog that pulled us and we had a hard time controlling her, especially when we were on our walks when another dog or person happened to be near. A real pain in my shoulders. Even tripped me and my wife up once and made us fall. Not good! Last issue was at doggie day care where she was too strong for the staff, especially smaller people. So, she got kicked out. My wife found Dogs by Andy and we went for it. 3-weeks later, we had a new dog. Took her home and practiced what they showed us for another 3 weeks. Have been on our last (3rd) follow up and we are so happy we have a new dog with walking manners that listens. Big thanks to the staff at Dogs by Andy...thank you, thank you. Eric the head trainer was awesome and very informative...Lauren at the front desk was so pleasant and nice to us. We're very happy.

Dogs By Andy has changed my pittie, Palmer's, life (and our family's). He was an extremely obsessive dog who was not aggressive, just obsessed with objects, reflections, leashes, people, you name it. It was impossible to bathe him, walk him, play with him or even have him around friends, as he would knock them over. I tried other training before Dogs By Andy and it did nothing to help him. Sending my dog to this immersive program allowed the trainers to see him at all stages of his behavior and treat that behavior as it occured. Lauren & Eriq have become like family to us. They truly love what they do and love the dogs. Palmer has been back to board there and can't get out of the car fast enough to see them and all of the staff there. My worries about leaving him with my other dog are gone. I can go to work and not have the constant stress over what was happening at home. I can't thank them enough and can't recommend this wonderful place & service enough!

Lauren, the front desk representative, has consistently demonstrated exceptional helpfulness and has gone above and beyond to ensure that I have always had everything I need. Eriq, the trainer, has been instrumental in helping me and my NALA achieve success in every task we have undertaken. Andy, the owner, is an outstanding individual who is always willing to offer guidance and support when needed. I am deeply grateful to have such a remarkable support system in my vicinity.
