FirstBarkNew to the area and knew that my dogs needed to be better breed ambassadors. Dogtopia gave me Activate Canine’s info and I am so pleased with their training….and mine! The staff has many years of dog experience with all types of issues and I felt safe and confident leaving them with the trainers. I highly recommend Activate Canine…don’t hesitate to let them correct any concerns you have!

I’ve had my lab (Mac) for three years and finally decided it was time for professional training. I can’t recommend this place enough! Alicia is so knowledgeable, patient and effective. I still have my sweet boy, but new and improved! Walks are now enjoyable, and it’s so much fun keeping his skills up at home! Mac is also less anxious at home since Activate Canine Training….Alicia helped me learn how to “quiet” his brain. Mac loves her and gets excited every time he sees her. It affirms my trust in Activate Canine Training, and knowing I have somewhere to board him in the future is great too. The only regret I have is not sending him sooner! 🙂
Alicia exceeded our expectations! Our 10 month old German Shorthaired Pointer came back to us with such manners! Walking him on a leash is now enjoyable, and having guests over is no longer chaotic! Her training with our baby & us has been such a pleasure! Highly recommend her to everyone!!

I met Alicia while she was out with her own pup. I was immediately impressed with how well behaved her pup was and how confident Alicia was handling him. I approached her and she was very kind and patient answering my questions. She met my pup a few days later and I knew right away I could trust her with him. My guy spent 3 weeks in her board and train program. He left me a shy, scared dog that could not spend time with his family outside of our home. He came home a confident and eager to work fella that we look forward to sharing so many new experiences with. He is still his silly, loving self but now has the obedience he was missing that preventing him for being the best guy he could be for everyone. THANK YOU, Activate Canine Dog Training for saving my best friend!
Cannot recommend Activate Canine Dog Training enough. Alicia and her team were great with my dog Dutton. He is much more obedient and trusting while on and off-leash. Alicia has been helpful with follow-up questions and training (for me, not my dog) and is a fountain of knowledge. Thank you so much!
