Pack AMO

I went through the shadow program with my catahoula-blue heeler mix. My dog struggles with severe anxiety, leash reactivity, resource guarding and territorial aggression. She went through the board and train program at Pack Amo and came back a new dog. She was no longer reactive on walks, there was also no more resource guarding or territorial tendencies. It was amazing to see how far she had come in 4 short weeks. While she came back a new dog, there was still one major challenge to overcome: myself. I had my own issues that increased her anxiety and reactivity. I seriously struggled with my own confidence and anxiety and constantly second guessed myself. The shadow program helped me to overcome this. After spending a few days at the Ranch with Aaron and his staff, my confidence has increased exponentially. Not only that, but my leash handling and body language has also improved. Most importantly though, my bond with my girl has also strengthened. If you’re like me and have a reactive dog, I strongly recommend doing the board and train program followed by the shadow program. If you’re someone who wants to just add more tools to your toolbox for your own dog, then look no further. This program is life changing and I can’t thank Aaron and his staff enough for the experience and the knowledge I’ve gained.

First, let me just say that the Shadow Program is a game changer! Second, it's important to know that Pack AMO is NOT your average daycare! It is a structured daycare that is run by a compassionate, professional dog trainer who is certified in behavior modification; the owner, Aaron Robinson, really knows his stuff and is a wonderful teacher! Knowing he is a skilled professional who personally trains his staff and is part of the daycare process is amazing and I ultimately wish all daycares were setup and run this way! In my humble opinion, all doggy daycares should be run by a professional dog trainer and in my 30 years of owning dogs, and 11 years of professionally training dogs, I know this to be far from the case in most instances. As a business owner and a professional dog trainer, I am always enhancing my skills from a dog training perspective and looking at methods to enhance, improve, and grow my dog training business. With Pack AMO's Shadow program, I was able to accomplish both! My business, Puppy Prep Dog Training, based in the suburbs just outside of Tulsa, Oklahoma, needed a way to provide a safe and structured daycare program to some of our clients who had high drive dogs, anxious dogs, underconfident dogs, and more. Because this was unchartered territory for us, we researched and sought out the experts in doggy daycare, Pack AMO, and we were not disappointed! Quite fankly, they exceeded our expectations and we feel so fortunate to have met Aaron and the wonderful folks that are apart of PA. We drove about 10 hours to get there and would happily make the trip again! We learned so much from the day to day operations and a hands on, how to approach in order to manage both the dogs as well as the staff in a safe, productive way. There wasn't a question left unanswered and if there was, I know we have the ability to consult with Aaron and the Pack AMO Team in the future. I was also especially geeked to get involved with the pack method and mindset training Aaron provides in both day training, board and trains as well as just structured daycare in general. Aaron and the team gave me the knowledge and confidence to come back to Tulsa and implement a safe structured doggy daycare that will be the outlet many of our training dogs need in order to continue to develop confidence, socialization, as well as mental and physical stimulation. If you're thinking about the Shadow Program, I can just lastly say, you won't be disappointed! It's a behind the scenes look that a regular dog owner, or a dog trainer can definitely learn and grow from!

We reached out to Aaron and PackAMO regarding our 3 year old GSD mix who was having issues with reactivity. We did the 4 week board and train option, which was great. We were sad and nervous to leave our dog when we initially booked the training, but after meeting and talking with Aaron, we knew she would be in good hands! We were able to follow along with her training/progress on the PackAMO instagram page which was nice. He also provided video/written resources for us in regard to training and managing a reactive dog, which we still reference! We did two in-person training sessions which allowed us to get hands-on experience while getting feedback and insights from Aaron which helped solidify things before bringing her home. Since the board and train, Aaron let us know he is available for any questions we have after bringing our dog home. Overall, very pleased with every aspect of our experience with PackAMO! Would definitely use them again for any future boarding, daycare, or behavioral concerns!!
