Enrolling in the private and group classes at Life is Dog has been the best decision we have ever made for our lab puppy. The facilities are clean, well organized and they have the option for day camps as well. This has made it a really good experience for us. But our trainer Nicole has made it an amazing experience for us. Nicole goes above and beyond each time we see her. Her energy and knowledge are incredible. Our puppy Luna learned so much from her in a short period of time. Her detailed e-mails have also helped us train our puppy at home. Definitely recommend this place and Nicole!!

I could write pages and pages about the wonderful experience my puppy, Frankie, and I have had at Life is Dog. We have been enrolled in the Levels training program since Frankie was about 3.5 months old. I knew almost nothing about raising a puppy before we started and now I feel utterly confident that I'm going to come out of this with a well behaved dog who is a joy to be around. Nicole, the trainer we see most often, is so incredibly skilled at what she does. I don't know where we would be without her.

We love Life is Dog! We have been going there with our nervous dog, for training and walking services. They have always tailored each training session to match our dogs comfort level. Sabrina took the time to get to know our dog, and gain her trust, which for our dog is not easy. They are now best friends and Nellie looks forward to her daily walks. We have noticed her overall confidence go up since Sabrina came into her life, and we couldn’t be happier! I have also had great experiences with Dana and Darren. We are looking forward to seeing their new training facility and day care! Update: it’s been over a year since this review was last written. I wanted to update as today was our last day with life is dog as we are moving out of town. We are sad to go as the staff has all created special bonds with our nervous Nellie. We will miss you all and thank you for the services you have provided to us the past 3+ years. Our most recent walker was Kelsey. Her enthusiasm and love for our dog showed daily. I can not recommend her and the rest of the team enough! Thank you all, we’ll miss you!
Life Is Dog has turned our little adorable but wildly lunging hooligan into a delightful, nearly civilized, walkable pup! We have a bit more to go for full civility, but we're sure that Life Is Dog will get us all the way. Great people, great training, much fun, great pride in our very smart pup! Thanks so much!
