Off Leash Trainer Angela McCavera did wonders with our very sweet but super lively 6 month old Border Collie “Ivy”. She was an uncontrollable jumper, terrible on a leash and would only ‘come’ when she felt like it. Ivy is now much more responsive to commands, heels well and walks nicely on a loose leash. She is still our loving and crazy girl but now she listens much better and is easier for us to handle all her energy.

Fantastic trainers and wonderful program. Don’t hesitate to get your dog involved in lessons or board and train. Definitely a very positive experience!

5/5

We did a 9-session training package with our puppy who was a little over a year old and displaying fear-based reactivity toward strangers (humans). Our trainer was very understanding, relatable, knowledgeable, and positive. We learned practical techniques for managing him in public and building a positive relationship with him. We are much more confident now, and so is our puppy! :)

I waited a month to post a review to really analyze my dogs changes so here it is: I payed $2000 and have not seen any noticeable improvement with my German shepherd. I have followed all of the directions the trainer gave me when I picked him up and he still struggles with door manners, following commands, and cannot be left alone without having him cry and howl. His walking has gotten slightly better, but he still struggles with self soothing which was my main concern and priority of the training. If anything, the training may have made his anxiety worse in some ways. Had higher hopes for the boarding program, especially with the price I paid. The only positives are that the trainer was super nice and she sent tons of cute pictures and videos through out the boarding.

After many breeds, Bowie is our first hound, and we were not expecting the level of stubbornness he brought to our lives. While he knew his basic commands, he certainly only did them when HE wanted to. After his 10 day board & train, he comes the first time he is called, will sit and stay, and is much more well mannered when meeting people. The daily updates, pictures and videos kept us updated on his progress and we are most definitely happy with the results.
