FirstBarkDefinitely recommend Happy dog training. We had both trainers Ellen and Lori both were super knowledgeable and friendly and did a great time teaching. Even with a full class you get individual feedback and tips. Our 8 month old puppy has definitely benefited and learned from this class and we can credit his well rounded behavior and social skills from what he learned in class.

The classes I attended was 8 weeks long one day a week and it was $369 and well worth every penny... I have a 6 month old Pitbull who is extremely friendly and loving but was showing aggression with other animals... Laurie showed us techniques on how to address it and know introduce him to other animals...

We attended Ellen’s Puppy Kindergarten at Happy Dog and were excited for each week’s class. Ellen is a +R, science-based dog trainer and has a wealth of experience. Each session is jam packed with lessons to learn and skills to hone. Journee especially loved puppy play time! It was so much fun! Thanks Ellen!

I highly recommend Happy Dog Training & Behavior without reservation! Our 2 puppies just completed Puppy Kindergarten & Family Dog 1 over the past few months. Ellen & Lori have helped guide us through every aspect of their training using positive reinforcement methods. From house breaking to loose leash walking to place, we and the dogs enjoyed the classes. Proper dog training is a wise investment and we can’t think of better trainers than Ellen and Lori! They truly care and go above & beyond!
Excellent training for dogs of all ages. The staff are helpful, attentive and effective.
We have now trained 3 dogs with Ellen and Lorrie at Happy Dog and I could not recommend them more! Their patience, knowledge and instruction go above and beyond mere housebreaking and leash walking! Every dog deserves one of their classes and every human needs at least one as well!!! Enjoy your best life with your dog by taking a class at Happy Dog!!!!
