FirstBarkMy dog, Rusty, did a puppy class at Prescott Valley Dog Squad. It was amazing. I was so impressed I decided to do a board and train with Donna (who I had heard was incredibly talented). Rusty spent 3 wks with Donna and came home happy, well mannered and obedient. We have continued to work with him daily using the instructions Donna gave us and his progress is phenomenal!!

We are huge fans of the entire PVDS team! We started with the basic puppy S.T.A.R training for then 4 month old highly energetic male Havapoo; Teddy. After graduating from learning the basics with Storm, we entered into a few private sessions with Shelby. Teddy was so responsive that we made the decision to do a 3 week Board & Train with Shelby. What a wonderful experience! Teddy no longer jumps on people as he meets them and loves training! He is a well mannered 7 month old little pup! The entire team at PVDS are true professionals that provide the appropriate specialized training for your pup! There is a very good reason they have been voted the area’s Best Dog Trainers!

We love Jessica Ruttle and the Prescott Valley Dog Squad! Our cattle dog Donut went through a 3-week board & train program with Jessica, and the results were astonishing. We have continued training with Jessica through transfer sessions and ‘pack walks’ at different locations to get Donut used to various surroundings. Donut is so much more obedient and responsive now. We would absolutely recommend Jessica and the Squad to friends and family!

Prescott Valley Dog Squad did an excellent job of training both my Service Dog and I on specific tasks related to his job and other fun tricks to provide an outlet for his high energy when not working. They are extremely professional and great at listening and helping find solutions and provide wonderful insight into the Service Dog mindset. It was a wonderful experience working with both Shelby and Donna. Kudo's to the team for knowing when and how to coordinate training with other team members (my dog required both in facility as well as in-house sessions, thus the reason for the hand-off to a second team member). Also enjoyed the group "pack-walks" each week. This was a great way to reinforce public access skills in a location with distractions (both unexpected and planned). I spent over 3 months finalizing my Service Dogs task training and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to fine tune their Service Dog capabilities.
We recently had an outstanding dog training experience at Prescott Valley Dog Squad with Shelby. Despite having a notoriously stubborn Frenchie, Shelby worked wonders with our pup. Her expertise and patience truly made a difference in our dog’s behavior. Highly recommended!
