This place is amazing! I adopted my first puppy, had no idea what I was doing… called and spoke to Liz, who was awesome! She was super informative and really knowledgeable. We ended up signing up for the perfect puppy package, with Liz but I’m sure all the trainers are great. Now our Thor is one year old and just so well behaved. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them.
She's a very well skilled instructor,knows her craft
Update: staff member reached out to me and resolved my issue. They have been helpful in understanding my need and giving me correction method. I feel our puppy is not benefiting a lot. It is more like watching youtube dog training tutorials.
BEST dog training in the area. Period. No matter what you want... Puppy manners, to agility and competitive obedience. They do it all and they do it well. Furthermore, they teach you how to do it. Kathy Lange (the owner) is a dog whisperer. Problems with aggression? Barking? Separation Anxiety? She can identify the issue, help you fix you so you can fix your dog. Don't go anywhere else.
