What people have asked about this business.
Jan sure enjoyed working with you and River is really doing well. I think I have two more lessons so was wondering if you could recommend classes that might be good for us?
You might want to try the Trick and Job Class. In this class we work on some fun tricks but also teach jobs that would help you as a service dog. It is a fun relaxed class that will give you some things you could also work on at home. Also, the Walk and Train Classes through the winter will help you work him in different locations and businesses.

I have a 5 yr old male lab not neutered. Very little training. Very food and human motivated. Do you train dogs like this. How many can attend the class
You couldn't find anyone to help you with your furbaby for any reason!!

Jan will most definitely help you and your dog! I've seen miracles happen with aggressive, nervous, shy, and formerly abused dogs.

We have just started attending classes at Live Oak with our shepherd puppy, and Live Oak's methods resonate with how we wish to train/connect with our pup. They use praise and gentle corrections rather than treats, which was the original reason we chose Live Oak. I appreciate the structure of the classes - some puppies catch on faster than others, so Jan determines when each client/puppy "graduates", rather than forcing every client to go through a certain program that lasts 4-6 weeks. Our time is VERY well spent at Live Oak. I'm so glad I found them!

I can’t express how wonderful Jan’s classes have been both for myself and my Collie. Jan is an extraordinary trainer and so insightful. She’s a great problem solver and listener and the result is a well mannered dog and an educated owner.

We paid $265 for 8 classes and a small collar using Venmo. We were only able to attend 2 classes due to a change in circumstances that prevented us from attending the other 6 classes. We emailed and let her know beforehand so she would have time to fill our spot if needed. When we asked for a refund for the 6 classes we would not be able to attend, Jan told us she didn't have record of our payment and would not refund any of our money. I have a record in my Venmo history showing her first and last name and her picture, so I know she received my payment. I think it is unprofessional to keep the money for classes we weren't able to attend.

Jan is amazing and definitely know what she’s talking about. I’ve only been there 2 times already and I’ve learnt so much. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who needs training for their dogs.

Jan is experienced, wise and compassionate. I love that she trains me more than my dogs. She never touches my dogs and encourages me to do what I am comfortable with, but she is clear with her reasoning for why she is recommending a certain action. The variety of classes she offers keeps us coming back for more skills and super fun bonding time.
