Ahimsa is truly outstanding. The owner, trainers, and staff are extremely knowledgeable and skilled, genuinely care for dogs, and are all around wonderful humans. Our puppy is attending a number of their class offerings, and each and every one of them is fantastic: Puppy Kindergarten is a superbly-structured 6-week series that taught us and our pup fundamental skills; Day Training gave us an opportunity to deep-dive on specific skills; Puppy Playtime, which he's still attending, is teaching him proper play and up/downregulation; and we're about to start Fun and Focus, their puppy/teen agility class. The 1:1 training sessions we booked have been just as valuable, with trainers available to meet at our home or another location that makes sense for the behavior being worked on. As someone whose late dog was severely reactive following a dog attack, I know the world of dog training better than I'd like to...and Ahimsa shines as a bright star in it.

We were initially on the fence about professional dog training because there are so many free resources online but I am SO glad we decided to do in-person training with Ahimsa!!! They break down training concepts in easily digestible ways, give you takeaways to practice with your dog at home, and give you real world scenarios to relate to the training concepts you're learning. It's made the whole process a lot less overwhelming. We also love that our pup is able to practice in a structured environment, around other dogs and people. We've learned SO much. Cannot emphasize enough how wonderful this facility is. We're excited to continue our training journey to make sure our puppy is the goodest boy.

We loved attending the puppy kindergarten here! Very safe and friendly atmosphere for training and socialization.

4/5

A quality dog gym. Excellent trainers. Class sizes may be a bit big for some dogs not ready for the training experience. Make sure you dog has been prescreened and pre trained for reactivity and group training before participating in live classes. Nonetheless, like all good training experiences, dog owners will learn more than their pets, and that's a great thing.
