This was a great experience. John is knowledgeable and patient with both my dog (Rudy) and me during training. Answered questions, gave tips. In the 6 trainings Rudy had, he made great strides with his reactivity issues. We both are more comfortable on our walks. Thank you Misfits for a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend your services.

I got my Australian cattle dog when he was a very young puppy and as he started growing up he became bored and started chewing things so I thought he would like to go on long walks to help with that. Then I realized he was reactive to other dogs near him, he looked aggressive also. I scheduled him to go to John and Zoe in December. While I waited for the time for board and train John came over once a month to tech me how to control my dog and what I would need to work on in order for them to work on it with Nico while he was at board and train. When Nico went to board and train he learned to be able to handle his emotions when he was near other dogs and he also learned some off leash work. I am sooo excited to get my boy back and continue to work on his training with him. Thank you Zoe and John! I can’t thank you enough.
Zoe and John are excellent! From the time they spend with your pup to the time they spend with you, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They did amazing with our mini goldendoodle and offer amazing support even after the training. Can't recommend enough!
Fantastic Couple. Knowledgeable trainers. Excellent facility. Stands out from the pack. 😉 You need to call them and book immediately. Spots fill up quick! Seriously stop reading and call them. 😃

Zoe did an awesome job of training our rescue staffy puppy. We were worried about his recall and his skittishness from being a stray and then in a shelter as well as other puppy behaviors. We had him do the board and train for 3 weeks and he came home so well behaved! Zoe did a great job helping us understand his training and how to continue to reinforce his training and build on it! Highly Recommend!!
