I have been working with Angel Dog Training for two years and want to continue working with them. I’ve been in a lot of different training classes. The majority of them is that you all get in a circle and work on obedience. Larry and Laura have customized their training to your individualized needs. This makes such a more positive experience. They truly take the time to understand your dog and how to better train to your specific needs. Their patience, knowledge, and dedication are exceptional. Gunther and I are very grateful for all the guidance, support, and friendship over the years. Thank you both!

Business response

Thank you so much, Sherri! It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and Gunther over the past two years. We are so proud of how seriously you take your dog training and how wonderfully you always follow through on every instruction—it makes all the difference. Whether families are right here in Shelby or coming from the Mansfield, Ontario, or Lexington areas, having dedicated clients like you makes what we do so rewarding.

Larry ad Laura are the finest of people! They understand your pets behavior and are very able to convey to you successful outcomes. Our sheltie would throw a fit whenever we left him alone. Yesterday we hit a home run with that behavior. We are still training but have made great progress! Thank you! Carl and Pam West Salem/Ashland Ohio area

Business response

Thanks for the kind words, Carl! It has been a pleasure working with you and Pam on Charming’s training. We truly enjoy helping families in the West Salem and Ashland area succeed with their dogs, just like you guys have! Seeing those breakthrough moments happen during training is exactly why we do what we do. We are so proud of the hard work you have put in, and we look forward to continuing to support you as you keep making great progress!

I brought my golden retriever here and you can definitely trust them with your fur baby! We just used them for boarding while we were on vacation, and you never have to worry! They take such amazing great care of your dogs. We live in Madison area, and will always travel to them every time to take care of our dog. Their training is amazing, will work with you on everything, they bring you along with the process, they’re very helpful and amazing! If I could rate it higher than a 5 I would.

We have a bull terrier, Tesla is a very stubborn,and bullheaded dog. I had no hopes of getting her to listen to me. Let alone lay down and with the instruction and help of angels dog training, We were able to get her to lay down as well as other obedience. Tesla was also a little bit aggressive with our other dogs. And since starting training with Angels dog training, she has not been as reactive as she used to be. also, we started using a mini educator and that absolutely worked, Wonders for Tesla. We have cats, and she is very prey driven. And with the mini educator and the help of Larry, she actually leaves the cats alone, and I can get her to come with just one word. None of this would have been possible without angel's dog training. I'm very appreciative of all of their help and would recommend them to any one.

Business response

"Hi Stephanie, thank you so much for the kind words about Tesla’s progress! It has been an absolute pleasure working with both of you. Seeing her learn to leave the cats alone and improve her recall using the Mini Educator e-collar is exactly why I love what I do here at Angel Dog Training. You did a really great job listening to my instructions throughout the conditioning process, and it really paid off.<br>​Whether you are in Shelby, Mansfield, Ontario, or Lexington, I am always happy to help local dog owners see these kinds of results. I am proud of the hard work you put in, and I look forward to hearing from you again if you need anything else!<br>​We can be reached anytime at 419-688-1993."

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Angels. I started with an out-of-control Golden Retriever, and they taught me how to train him with love, patience, and effective redirection. They’ve been incredibly kind, flexible, and supportive every step of the way. They even cared for my dog while I was on vacation, which gave me so much peace of mind—especially since I had never boarded a dog before and was very nervous. Knowing he was in such good hands meant everything. I’ll absolutely continue working with Larry and Laura. If you’re raising a puppy or have a dog that needs structure and guidance, I highly recommend them. They are simply the best.

Business response

​"Stacia, thank you for the wonderful review! It has been an absolute pleasure working with you and Winston. We’re thrilled to hear that our dog training and boarding services in Shelby and the surrounding areas helped Winston gain the structure and guidance he needed. Providing peace of mind for owners while they travel is a top priority for us, and we’re glad we could make your first boarding experience a positive one. We appreciate your recommendation to other dog owners looking for professional dog training in our community. We look forward to continuing our work with you and Winston!"
