FirstBarkTommy is fantastic. We have 3 dogs which he helped us on leash walking, manners and then most of all helped us with some aggression issues between 2 of our dogs. I would highly recommend him for any issues you may have with your dog(s) . He is patient, knowledgable and helps you understand the steps you need to do to have well mannered dogs. Thank you so very very much Tommy Nancy & Rob

Tommy was the perfect trainer for my two female dogs. When the matriarch of my pack passed, they had three horrible fights. Being in the veterinary field, my house is a hodge podge of rescue critters, and I knew this would continue to get worse without intervention. Tommy taught me how to create boundaries and how we can prevent things that may cause tension between the girls! We haven't had any further issues with the girls, it's made a world of difference in the tension level of our home. Tommy is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and great at showing me how to deal with their issues. I feel relieved having his expertise on our situation and have the ability to reach out with questions or concerns is a life saver. As an added bonus, he spent a short time with one of my rescue puppies, asking a lot of questions, observing the dog and worked with her and was able to teach me how to stop some unwanted behavior. Highly recommend!
Corday is an amazing dog trainer, she's been so helpful for both training my dog and teaching me methods to continue working with him. My dog is reactive on leash, so introducing him to my boyfriend's dog made me a bit nervous, we did the introduction with Corday and her methods for introducing them worked beautifully and they're best friends now. Corday is amazing, I highly recommend her!

We recently completed a dog training course with Evergreen School For Dogs, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Our dog trainer, Tommy, was absolutely fantastic. He was incredibly patient with both us and our dog, Max, taking the time to explain everything thoroughly and never making us feel rushed. Tommy's extensive knowledge was evident throughout the course. He brought a wealth of expertise to every session. We were amazed at how minor tweaks in our interactions with Max could lead to such significant improvements in his behavior. Tommy's techniques were simple yet incredibly effective. Overall, we are thrilled that we took this course. It has made a world of difference and has set us up for a happy life with our new family member, Max.

If you need dog training, look no further! Evergreen School for Dogs is the best dog training I have ever seen. Their calm and kind demeanor, true understanding of dogs, and ability to help us speak our dog's language is unparalleled. We loved having the opportunity to work with and learn from Corday. I could not possibly give a higher recommendation- they have earned my trust and respect. Our golden stayed for board and train for a week and then we had two weeks of in-home training. Life feels so much more manageable and happy for our whole home. Thank you, Corday and Evergreen School for Dogs.
