We sent our vizsla to LA School for Dogs 3 years ago and she did the 3 week program, it was amazing and she was an entirely new and improved girl after she finished! We can take her anywhere! If you're on the fence about doing the 3 week program at all...just do it, it's so worth it!! We have regularly stayed in contact with Jennifer since then and can reach out to her with any questions or concerns.

Jennifer Mann and her team at L.A. School for Dogs have trained four puppies for me over the last 9 years. This 4th puppy just graduated from Jennifer's amazing 3 week school last week. I keep coming back here each time I get a puppy because this program works better than anything else out there. The results are simply amazing in just 3 weeks, and my puppy comes home with me each night. No boarding. And every puppy I've brought there wags their tail each day we arrive; they all seem happy to go there. My 6 month old puppy who graduated last week now heels gracefully, auto sits when I stop, goes to place, comes when called, lays down with a verbal command or hand signal, takes treats gently, and so much more. I also brought my 3 year old dog back here to 2 weeks of "school" to address some quirky behavior issues he developed in the last year with other leashed dogs. (Jennifer fixed that.) and I wanted to be able to walk both the puppy and the older dog together, fluidly. Needless to say, thanks to Jennifer, my 3 yr old dog and my puppy walk nicely, side by side. People we pass marvel at how well they are both trained. Jennifer's years of experience, her tailored training program (this is not a one size fits all) and her ability to connect with her canine students make her the gold standard. And all you have to do to maintain the positive behaviors she has taught them, is to walk your dog twice a day, practicing a few "drills" along the way. It's way too easy. You will be amazed at how she's able to make your dog a good citizen for life!

We met with Jennifer for an evaluation of a high energy dog. She provided us with her recommendation which was straightforward, honest, accurate, and what we needed to hear. I was impressed with the operation particularly because she is located next to the First Neighborhood park. I was extremely glad we met with her. I would look forward to using her in the future and highly recommend her.

can’t say enough good things about LA Dog School! Jennifer and Jessica are truly amazing
they spent nearly an hour on the phone with me, answering every question with so much patience, kindness, and genuine care. It’s rare to find people who are not only knowledgeable but also truly care about you and your dog. You can tell they love what they do. I’m so grateful for their time and support!
