FirstBarkWe took the reactive dog class . It was really helpful. Our dog Lola made great strides (we need to continue working on our own to reinforce the training). The trainers were knowledgeable and helpful and took time to explain why we were doing each exercise. I can recommend it

Tina has been a godsend helping us with our reactive dog! Strongly recommend.
My dog is taking the nose works class. It's a lot of fun and very well organized.
We have had a great experience with Pamela and Whold Dog Insititute. I would highly recommend them to any dog owner!
Tina at Whole Dog is very kind, patient, and knowledgeable. We have a reactive dog, and we're looking forward to our sessions to help him with his anxiety. Great facility, great people!
