FirstBarkWe loved their puppy program. My dog is part of ACK, and I chose them because they're also evaluators. But above all, they treat the dogs with so much love, and you can tell they love what they do.

I brought my golden retriever in for basic obedience because he was constantly pulling on the leash and reacting to every dog we passed. The trainer was great—really patient and clear with the steps I needed to take. He’s become so much easier to handle now, and our walks feel more relaxed and enjoyable instead of stressful. I’m really happy with the progress he’s made and would absolutely recommend this training business to anyone needing extra help with their pup!

I recently enrolled my 3 year old golden-doodle in ACA controlled behavior program, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, the trainers displayed a deep understanding of canine behavior and helped my dog develop confidence and obedience. My dog now is much more comfortable with distractions and a better behaved companion. He loves all the trainers and enjoys participating in the classes. I highly recommend ACA to any dog owner looking to improve their pet's behavior and strengthen their relationship.

We love Advanced Canine Assistance (A.C.A. Center)! A.C.A in Doral is amazing! The staff is so friendly and truly cares about every dog that walks through the door. You can tell they really love what they do—our pup gets excited every time we pull into the parking lot! The facility is always super clean and well-kept, and it just feels like a happy, safe place for dogs. The trainers are great at what they do and make sure each dog gets plenty of attention and love. Cesar and his team are amazing. They take great care to tailor their training techniques to meet the individual needs of each dog under their care and they go to great lengths to explain their process and rationale to dog parents seeking their help. We’re so grateful to have found ACA. It’s rare to find a place that combines great people, a clean environment, and so much genuine care for dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch dog training! 🐾

Before coming to A.C.A. Center, my rescue dog was highly reactive, making every walk a stressful experience. I would only take her out during quiet hours when most people were at work and children were in school, just to avoid potential triggers. After completing training with A.C.A. Center, the transformation has been incredible. She is now a confident, calm dog who no longer reacts to other dogs, people, lizards, squirrels, or cats. I can walk her at any time with complete confidence, and she follows my commands beautifully. A.C.A. Center did an outstanding job not only training my dog but also teaching me how to be a more effective handler. I am truly grateful for their expertise and patience. Walking a well-behaved dog — regardless of breed — is absolutely priceless, and A.C.A. Center made that possible!
