We enrolled our 1 year old mini goldendoodle in the "Puppy Basic Manners and Obedience" class with trainer Carleen. She was wonderful with our dog and all the other dogs in the class. We saw a lot of improvement in our puppy's behavior in a short period of time! I would highly recommend Carleen to anyone that needs some extra assistance in training their new puppy!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I am just curious if you have open times to practice agility or rallying exercises? In the sports sampler we are learning these two different sports plus scents. I have no way of practicing the rallying and the agility. Thanks, Jerry Mock
Hi Jerry, yes once students and dogs reach a comfort level with the equipment, we do offer facility rental for open practice. So glad you're enjoying the Sports class! I'll shoot you an email with details.

I haven't been able to make to my last 3 puppy classes due to illness and vacation and I need a number to contact Good Dog Rising to see if I can reschedule some of these missed classes
Hi Angie! I just replied to your email as well. No problem at all - you can work with your instructor at your next class and you can work out your availability in person.

Great place. Highly recommend taking your dog here!
Really friendly people and a really good training experience overall.
Taking our puppy to GDR has been the best thing we have done for him! He's super high energy and a bit much sometimes. Carleen and Kathleen have both been phenomenal in helping us with strategies to get him to pay attention to us and become a well behaved dog. We came for just puppy classes and have just kept on going because it's made a world of difference!
The team at GDR has been very helpful with our young rescue dog, Finnegan. Finn was hyper and not prone to listening to commands, but GDR has helped us develop a good two-way means to communicate and modify his behavior. They've been terrific and agile in our training needs!
