Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I;m in need of a trainer who can help with a 2 year old dog who is terrified of strangers. Do you have a one on one training program. Would it be better to kennel the dog and work with him without family members. What are your cost for training
Yes I’d love to help you with that. We should start with a consultation and you can register online for that at https://npab.as.me You can find our scheduling options and costs there as well.

I have a foster dog that is having aggression issues....severe...can you help me??? Or know anyone who can??? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Ty,Colette nelson
Have you tried hemp oil? Takes the edge off. My dog eventually needed Prozac for aggression. It has helped a lot. It's very cheap too

People are probably getting sick of hearing me say “my trainer says…” but I learn so much every single class, and I’m not a first time dog owner. She trains you to train your dog with fun and positivity. My dog loves going to school! And the classes are a good time for me as well. “Aunt Beth” is witty as hell, and makes me laugh regularly. The best, and most important part, is that my dog is thriving under her tutelage. I’m super proud of him and I know that his classes with NPAB are a big part in shaping his puppyhood.
The staff members are very good with our anxious little dog. The location has a nice space around the building so our dog can safely stretch his legs for a moment before we go inside, which is super helpful after a long drive. They let us wait in the car or outside and call us to come in either through the side entrance or when the lobby is clear of other dogs.
I came to NPAB when I got my Covid puppy in 2020. Beth is the best and most personable trainer making classes fun. Once you finish a class you can’t wait for another. I added a new pup in 2022 so I’m back training again. Retail hours on Saturdays are a great time to take your dog to visit Aunt Beth and pick up almost anything you need at the best prices around.
Fantastic trainer!! Knowledgeable, fun, and effective!
