FirstBarkThis place saved my relationship with my dogs. I took my two frenchies there with zero manners and did the 14 day training with them. I finally have peace in the house. And I’m not afraid to invite guests over. I was in shock at the changes they made. I never thought they would learn how to behave.

Wonderfully supportive and helpful. Our dog (Sam) adores the crew and the attention. They have a special way if engaging the dogs and moving the training forward and long lasting.
Great people, great facility
Our trainer Sarah did a great job with training our puppy Scylla who is a handful! She helped us figure out strategies for continued training at home as well, and is available for any continued questions we come up with.

We initially wanted to check this place out because of the good reviews, but quickly learned an important lesson. Our experience with nothing short of horrible. When bringing in our dog they had us "test" the collar, but neglected to inform us that they were using only a low setting, and the lowest of three alert types. At such a low setting it seems like a mild collar, and really just an "attention getter". When we picked up our dog after the first week it was clear something was wrong. She was extremely timid, and acted afraid. Especially when the collar was out. I decided to try the collar for myself, placed it on the setting they said they were using (5), and used the "emergency" button that they COACHED me to use when she was pulling too hard or aggressively, and learned that this is absolutely a shock collar! Our dog was acting out of fear because she was being inflicted with pain all week long! If you do decide to visit and "test" the collar, make sure you ask them to demonstrate the exact setting I quoted, and know that if your dog is more boisterous they may use a higher setting! We attempted to collect a refund, and the company got extremely defensive. The owner refused a full refund, and we attempted to reconcile and ask for a refund for the difference between a 2 week and 1 week program. We would be happy to return the equipment, and be on our way. They agreed to do that only if we signed a legal agreement to not speak of their company again, including leaving reviews. Lawyering up when we pushed back and insisted that we be able to leave an honest review. We cannot recommend enough that people seek dog training elsewhere.
