5/5

We picked up Chance the Napper after a 2 Week Board and Train. Or as we called it Boarding School. We dropped off a puppy and picked up a dog. While he is still a very happy joyful beast of a dog he’s much more focused and we are able to enjoy his company even more than we thought possible. Being able to eat dinner in peace is a god send, having him respond to commands especially “Come” and “place” provide us with such a sense of ease it makes it worthwhile Knowing he will return to me when I call his name, I cannot put a price on that sense of security Now this is the first dog we have ever had professionally trained so we were a bit nervous. They do use a training collar and we know that can be off putting to some. We are all about positive reinforcement. And so are these wonderful people. Heck, if they were any more positive you’d think you were at a Tony Robbins Seminar ! They gave such good positive vibes and energy to Chance that he breaks out into Stuart Smalley affirmations! The hard part is now up to us! Keeping the training up falls squarely on us. But fear not! Once your dog graduates from Boarding School they are there to help you out. Devon was not only great about sending us daily photos and updates he’s been great answering questions now that we have Chance at home. Seriously, if you are reading this it means you are looking for a place to take your dog to be trained in a caring positive professional environment. Well quit looking and start booking. This is the place!

The "puppy consultation" we scheduled with Jesse was extremely helpful at easing our anxiety about our puppy and gave us hope that we were on the right track. We plan to use Jesse in the future for a more intensive training once he gets older.

5/5

Absolutely worth it. Jessie transformed my stubborn, nervous/anxiety ridden dog into a calm and confident dog. She helped me understand how to help him through his triggers and when to push him. Daily training has become built into our routine, but more importantly has strengthened my bond with him. I used to dread walking him at popular times of the day. I would avoid seeing as many people and dogs as possible. He would bark and pull non stop. Now we can walk anywhere at anytime of day and he's unbothered. The training has given us both confidence to do so much more and for me to have him outside just to hang out. It's an understatement to say a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. People now compliment us saying how well behaved he is. I never ever thought that day would come. My next dog will definitely be coming here.

Devon was very good at keeping me updated on my pups training daily and took good care of her during her two week board and train. Did a awesome job making sure I knew how to continue our training.
