Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How well do you work with middle-age dogs? Our six year old rescue is pretty traumatized and would benefit from one-on-one!
Dogs of ALL ages are welcome in [most] classes and dogs of ANY age can benefit from one-on-one private sessions, if that's what you're looking for. We've helped MANY rescues with varying degrees of trauma over the years! Please feel free to stop in and discuss your needs with our team or give a call and let us talk you through the services we have to offer.

Very professional and attentive trainers!
Sam at Amanda Gangon has been really helpful! He provides simple and realistic ways to incorporate training at home with our family. I highly recommend puppy class if you are welcoming a new dog into your life.

My dog Howie has been going to classes here since he was 10 weeks old. He started with Puppy Socials and then Puppy Kindergarten and is now in Puppy Level 2. Each class has been great! We've had Sam as Kindergarten instructor and Level 2 instructor and he's been wonderful. Sam is patient with Howie and answers my questions about training issues patiently and with solutions. Their puppy socials I can't recommend enough for young puppies...it helped Howie immensely in being comfortable around other dogs and Melissa was generally the instructor at these for us on Saturdays and she was great too!

Yoshi absolutely ADORES play group. He tries to go there any chance he can. He loves all his friends, and whenever he sees his trainers (especially Michelle P) he runs over excitedly and demands pets :) The training has been amazing for him, he's definitely refining his leash skills, calming down in exciting situations, and remaining his delightful playful self. We cannot thank AG enough for encouraging his good habits and slowly tweaking the bad, and Yoshi cannot wait to go back every week!
