Our puppy loves Roo! She has this incredible ability to understand and communicate with dogs in a deeper way than any other trainers we've encountered. We highly recommend her!

Sign up now! Roo is incredible! We’ve had such a great experience with The Puppy School. We learned so much through her puppy kindergarten and level 1 classes (I joke that she’s even taught me how to be a better parent to my human children!) I was nervous about the classes being worth the investment, but it has been so fun to see our puppy learn so many new things, and also become well socialized with other dogs. She is brilliant, it has been well worth our investment, and it has truly been an honor to get to know Roo. Her passion for her work is unmatched.
Roo is amazing! She's great with the puppies, but is also amazing at explaining why techniques do or don't work. She gives you plenty of tools to help your dog with socializing, training, and other ways to build a solid relationship with you and your pup!

Roo is amazing! She is literally the "dog whisperer!" My little guy has learned so much, but more importantly, I have learned so much. One of our other dogs went to a very expensive training school and I'm so bitter after what I've learned with Roo! I think a lot of trainers focus on obedience, but Roo gives you the "why" and is very focused on real-world issues (like your dog needs to exposed to moving objects like strollers, bikes, skateboards, etc.). I would highly, highly recommend!
Roo (owner and head trainer) does an amazing job training both dogs and dog owners. Not only are her methods very effective, but also very affordable. Our relationship with our pup has been thoroughly enhanced by our experience with the puppy school, and we plan on continuing with more classes.
