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.

Question on Google
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.

I bought my German Shepherd dog at 8 weeks. He is now 15 months. He was a difficult pup from the begining. I have owned dogs all my life but his personality and aggressive tantrums were out of my experience and ability. Live Oak was recommended to me. It was my last hope before rehoaming him. Jan was fantastic. She worked with me and my dog on several of our issues. By the end of our session I was encouraged and more confident. It has only been 2 days, but I am doing the work as Jan taught me and it is going well. He is calmer and more obedient. I highly recommend Live Oak Dog Training to any one. Thank you Jan.

My dog, Cooper, was a Covid puppy and really struggled with reactivity. Through working with Jan, he and I both have been able to learn and grow so much. It’s been quite the journey but Cooper and I have both worked so hard to be the team we are today. He now is able to go with me to pet-friendly stores, camping, and even sports games. I took Cooper to his first professional baseball game last week for the Idaho Falls Chukars “bark in the park” night. He did so well. I wouldn’t be where I’m at today without Jan’s help training both Cooper and myself. I wish I lived closer so that I could still attend classes. Thanks for all you do Jan!!!

5 out of 5 stars! I highly recommend Jan at Live Oak Obedience! Having my dog Molly progress through Puppy Obedience to Advanced Off Leash Training has been a truly transformative experience for both of us. Jan is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about your dog's success. She takes the time to explain the underlying reasons behind dog behaviors. She gives individual instruction and advice to each client and furry friend to help them with specific behaviors. Jan has taught me how to communicate effectively to Molly. Group lessons are fun, we all learn together! There is always something new and stimulating to learn at each class. Thank you Jan for helping me learn how to train and teach Molly, because of you, we have a positive, happy relationship. Live Oak Obedience is the best!

5/5

Jan is the kindest most knowledgeable trainer in the area. She really takes the time to ensure you and your dog understand what's going on and have the tools to work on your goals. I love the variety of classes she has (agility has been so fun!); it keeps the dogs and owners constantly striving for new ways to bond. I couldn't recommend her enough.

I brought my 4 year old pup to Jan to help her with anxiety and obedience training. Jan is very knowledgeable about how to work with dogs without using treats to get them to perform. She teaches you how to read your dog so you can better work with them and help them succeed. Her style is very open and adaptive to each individual dogs needs. My dog has 1,000% improved in her obedience and confidence. Our walks are enjoyable now because she doesn't pull on the leash and isn’t afraid like she was before. She just went on her first flight and handled it like a boss! I also appreciate Jan’s pricing for training. She is affordable and fair. Thank you Jan for giving me and my pup a whole new lease on life!
