I signed my Bernedoodle mini up for both puppy basics and obedience 1 and so far Paisley has gained so much more confidence interacting with our family, friends and other dogs. I’d recommend their classes to anyone looking for help kickstarting their puppy/dogs training journey. Janis was our trainer for both courses - I really loved how much she interacted with us on an individual level as well as a group level throughout both courses. She was very personable and willing to help hands on if needed with our dogs and answered any questions that we had. I also attended the loose leash walking seminar and found it very beneficial for learning different tricks and tips to help with one of the most difficult concepts to train.

Clint came to our house twice to help us better understand how to work with our new rescue dog who was showing lots of anxiety and some aggression. He explained some of the dynamics going on between the new dog and our other dog and gave us some great advice about how to safely introduce the new dog to people that came into our house. Clint knows what he's doing and we'd recommend him for your dog!
