I have a rescue puppy, part Bernese & Border Collie, who is very big (90+ pounds) and she was dragging me around. She was much bigger than I thought she'd be. I have owned a number of dogs but she was really challenging. She was also very scared of people but liked other dogs and easily spooked by sudden noises. The method that LA School for Dogs and the trainer, Emily, were so helpful in learning to control her. I worked with them for 6 weeks, 1 hour a week but also called or emailed several times with questions. The process we went through was very structured and made such a difference. By the end, I was better equiped to handle her and she became more confident. We communicated better through the repeated routine of sit, stay, down at a distance, come. Thanks to Jennifer for her methods and Emily for her persistance and training.
We cannot THANK YOU enough for the expert training and guidance for our Zoey and us! Emily is truly a dog whisperer extraordinaire…and soooo kind and upbeat!! We couldn’t believe how our pup would be so excited, go in tail wagging as we walked in the door in the mornings. It is clear ALL the staff LOVE training!! Jennifer…what a wonderful place you have created!!
Exceptional training, loving care!! My puppy Isabela recently completed both the Head Start program and the 3-week Academy training. Emily has been such a tremendous mentor and teacher, giving our little Dachshund the confidence and training needed for a happy launch on life. All trainers at L A School for Dogs are caring, warm, and tremendously knowledgeable. Highly recommend!!!
Amber & The LA School For Dogs Team Is The Best!!! My Pup Learned So Much From Them And She Continues To Retain All Of The Information. They Love Our Dogs & Treat Them Like Their Own… My Girl Was Excited Every Morning At Drop Off!! I Could Not Recommend Them More. Thank You.
