FirstBarkRoo is a natural with dogs. She has a great way of helping puppy “parents” understand canine behavior and how to partner with your dog in the training process. I love the informal play dates in her beautiful yard. Her extensive knowledge of the local area for puppy hikes helped me find some great dog friendly places to take my pup.

The Puppy School is great! Roo provides a wide variety of group classes, as well as individualized instruction and it has been a huge help to my pup. Even more, she has done a great job in training me to be a better owner. We also really love all the extracurricular activities. She offers like puppy hikes. If you’re looking for some extra training for your dog, this is an excellent choice.

The Puppy School has been a wonderful place for my puppy Tugs to learn and grow! We started with Puppy Kindergarten and have started Level 1. We get many compliments on how well behaved he is! He has also made many wonderful friends through the school and his socialization has been amazing from the puppy play dates! Roo has been so helpful in the areas we have struggled like leash pulling and her one on one classes are tailored to what your pups need! Overall wonderful trainings for you and your fur baby!
Roo is fantastic! She has helped with both our older dog and our puppy. Would highly recommend!!
