Gray's K-9 Academy

Grays K9 Academy is awesome. I wish I had a better word. We drove from Charleston, SC to this place! WORTH IT. Went on a referral from a friend and we could not be happier with the outcome of our puppy. We did the board and train off leash program. Brittanie, her sister (forgot her name!!!) and the team are dedicated to working with your dog and do a great job explaining that it really takes a lot of training on the owner’s part, too. Brittanie is there for you even after your dog leaves this program. We are planning for another pup in the spring and we will not hesitate to bring the new pup to this place. Happy pup, happy family! Thanks guys!!!!

This may very well be the best dog trainer around, but I can’t offer a review of those services. My class in March was postponed due to COVID. I was then reassigned to a new class in July without my consent or confirmation. Upon realizing I was reassigned to a class I did not attend (because I didn’t know about it), I asked to be placed into a new class. Instead of obliging, I was told I could receive the training that I already paid for at a measly 20% discount in price. I again requested to be placed in a new class at no additional charge or be refunded as I would have been at the original class had it not been postponed. They still refuse to allow me to take the training they’ve been paid to provide. You may get amazing dog training, as reviewed by others, but in my case they kept my money and then wanted more of it.

My pit bull had animal aggression and was jumpy and nervous around kids. I sent her to Brittany for 6 weeks. And it’s like I have a new dog!!! She loves other animals, loves my kids, she will lay perfectly still and let my 11 month old play with her! It’s like Brittany and the girls showed her how to be the happy go lucky pup we always knew she was! Brittany kept us informed and updated every step of the way( and I’m a crazy helicopter parent 😂) I would definitely recommend grays k9 academy

We sent our dog to their board and train with behavior modification for his anxiety and animal aggression. It was a huge amount of money to start, which worried me but I made sure to consult with her about the behavioral issues in detail. When we go to pick him up, all the dogs are shaking, they're so afraid of her. Not only that, but our dog had learned nothing more than what I'd already trained him to do other than how to stay in one spot! He was still aggressive and even more anxious than before. I do the follow-up advice consistently but with no change and when I tell them this, I get no response back. They failed to do what we consulted about and while I know they can't guarantee a change in behavior, but they did not consult me that their program would not do well for dogs with anxiety and didn't really even focus on correcting his problems. I feel cheated that the program resulted in a bigger behavior issue and they don't want to respond to me. I put a lot of money and trust into them for nothing. I would never recommend you board and train your dog here, or at all. Boarding, sure. But the training will get you nowhere.
