Worth every penny. Our boxer mix is now well socialized and well trained thanks to Johnny and team. Really appreciate the time and attention they gave to us. Highly recommend to anyone looking for training.
They understood our needs for our stubborn dog Franklin.

Brought my American Bully Franklin here for the evaluation and I was very impressed. They sent me videos of his progress throughout the day. Not only were they extremely educated on his difficult breed but they knew exactly how to guide me to be a leader for him at home. In just one day that he spent there they had him following commands I never in a million years thought he would be following. Im excited to see how he continues to improve moving forward. Prices were a bit on the high end but understandably so given the current economy and the knowledge and skills they have.

I don’t think there are words with how impressed I am with their work but I will try my best! My dog has been reactive towards other dogs for a few years now due to an incident with a dog in our old neighborhood. I have seen him scared and unsure of himself around other dogs for so long now. after just one session I noticed a HUGE difference in his interactions with other dogs. He stopped being anxious and unsure of himself and started being so confident. His hair on his back was laid instead of still straight up in the presence of other dogs. No barking or pulling, instead it was a tail wagging in excitement. He’s now able to be with other dogs safely and confidently. Pictured is my dog as well as my boyfriends (who my dog had no interaction with at all before starting training) comfortably laying on the couch relaxing. Which is something I was once weary of. Thank you so much Underdog academy! I also forgot to mention we haven’t even finished training yet and this is already the progress he’s made!
