I was truly impressed with the staff and the training offered here, especially given the low-cost. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is that the facility is a little bit run-down. Otherwise, it is a wonderful space for pets to be boarded. They keep the animals separate when they are being played with, which is another plus.

I've had a rescue dog for 2 yrs. And we brought her there for listening/training which helped tremendously. My concern is her going nuts whenever she sees another dog, Is this something you can help with?
Yes they can help you

When we drive over the bridge going into Phenix City both Sugar and Ella know where they are going. They just love Harvards. I can not say enough nice things about them. I have had them train three of my dogs and we use them to board. When we have to go out of town, we have no guilt because we know that our fur people are being taking care of. When you drive up and your dogs get excited you know they are being treated well. I recommend them to all of my clients. Vickie Rounsaville

I have trained and boarded my dogs with Laura ever since she took over the K-9 Center from Stewart Harvard (20 yrs?) I raise service dog puppies now and although I can teach them basic obedience myself the group classes are excellent for exposure to other dogs of all kinds, plus the country distractions. The boarding facility is much better than the cages at the vet or the "boutique" facilities around town. Your dogs have expert care and outdoor places to exercise/play/+training. Laura and staff also do specialized one-on-one training for problems. Harvard is way out in the country (to me) off of Rt. 80 just past downtown Crawford AL. Use your GPS or call for directions. Harvard's K-9 is the Ivy League of training/boarding. I give it 4 Paws, 5 stars
Well at Harvard's group class. Mrs. Laura taught me the correct way to teach my Rock the basic commands he needs to follow. If in the future I need a refresher I will be going back to Harvard's. I recommend Harvard's to anyone that is looking for not just training but training with love and care for your dog.
