FirstBarkHorrible owner. Came out to chastise me when my senior dog and I walked by off leash, 20 feet away from our car. I responded kindly to him and he berated us, threatened to call the cops, and told us we would be "easy to spot" I guess for when he calls the cops on us? Won't be taking any dogs here for training. Guy has a short fuse, that's for sure.

Love Drayton and his team. Can't say enough great things about his training and teaching style. He is spot on with feedback, gives direct and helpful insight and has a clear focus during class. This is the place to go and person to work with. We took our four year old pit bull for training and now our new pit bull puppy. I can't wait to come back for intermediate classes. You'll will leave with skills to help your pup throughout the future that are necessary and critical for a healthy, happy and safe dog.
Do not bring your dog here. They have the dogs share bully sticks, which made our puppy sick. When I asked Drayden questions about the training practices, he told me not to return to the class with no refund of the training cost. He refused to answer any questions and was extremely rude in his email responses. When I asked my vet about his practices, she was horrified!
Drayton helped us tremendously to learn how to successfully interact with and help our dog Bugsy learn! We have been happier, less stressed, and seeing consistent progress every day! Highly recommend Urban Dawgs. Drayton left us feeling reassured that our dog had nothing “wrong” and just needed the right way to learn and grow.
Drayton and Laurie were wonderful with our mini goldendoodle Sunny. We learned a lot from the puppy kindergarten. Drayton really is the 'Kobe' of the dog training world. Can't wait for the intermediate class.
