My wife and I brought our 10 month old puppy to the Puppy 201 course, taught by Madi. While generally well behaved, we were having issues with her jumping on every person we introduced her to. The 201 course had a lot of good info to help control her jumping impulse while also covering how to do introductions so that she wasn't as interested in jumping to begin with. I would recommend this place to anyone with a new puppy that you want to be well behaved out in public.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible transformation in my 17-month-old Golden Retriever, Gideon. Raising a 93-pound puppy has been a challenge, and we were both in need of an intervention. After researching local facilities, Precision Dog Training Academy stood out above the rest. My initial call with Ethan left me feeling reassured and understood regarding the struggles I was facing. I was thrilled that Madi was assigned as Gideon’s trainer. She was amazing with him; the videos I received showed Gideon improving by leaps and bounds with his tail always wagging. It was clear he was becoming the dog he was always capable of being. Thanks to Madi’s wonderful work, training, and exercise, Gideon has even lost his puppy fat and looks very fit. Gideon is now home after his three-week board-and-train program, and I am truly enjoying his obedience. The tools we were provided have ensured a successful transition back to our daily life. We are now able to go out in public together, which is a complete turnaround. He now heels, places on command, recalls, and understands "leave it." He even jumps into the car on his own now, rather than me having to lift him. Thank you, Madi, and the entire team at Precision Dog Training Academy, for everything you have done for us.

Kate was excellent with our pup, Zeke. She made him feel comfortable during his stay, easing his anxiety. Her training was outstanding. Zeke is now walking great, not jumping and listening to various other commands she taught him. And she is great at explaining what and how she trained so we could bring that into our home. Getting Zeke signed up for training was also easy. Ethan was great to work with. Our other dog, Phoebe, will also be going to Precision.

Our 2 yr old labradoodle attended Precision Dog Training for the 3 week program. We couldn't be more happy with the training she recieved. Madi was the best trainer. She was patient and answered all of my questions so that I could continue training at home. The daily updates and videos were helpful in knowing what was going on each day. We are happy to have a calmer, self-controlled pup.

We now have had two dogs work with the team at Precision and the both continue to in group classes. The work Keaton has put in has made both of our girls both do a 180 in behavior. Our adopted Malinois is our most recent dog to work with Keaton. She is a two year old Malinois that had limited socialization for her first two years and as a result was reactive when we adopted her. She went from not really knowing how to play appropriately and rather hanging close to humans to leading a controlled and positive zoomie chase in playgroup. Her overall confidence has come so far and we can’t wait to keep working with her. Another notable call out is Luci is very particular with people, especially men, and she loved both Keaton and Ethan which I think says so much about the energy they bring and the type of training that is being used. Two additional special shoutouts: Ethan who was the first person we talked to when we scheduled our first dog and from day one has been just so easy and positive to work with. Emily who does all of the group training and has been so helpful with our continued training. I would highly recommend Precision over all other trainers in the area. Especially if you are looking for a spot to not only do privates or board and train but also do follow up group classes to continue building in a positive environment.
