FirstBarkWe had the opportunity to work with Rebecca for our dog Leo’s territorial aggression at home. She worked with us to retrain his response to visitors coming in the house, better leash manners, and following my lead in public. We had guests over today and they said “It’s like he’s a totally different dog!” Thank you Rebecca!

Our trainer, Rebecca, was fabulous using just the right techniques in solving our two problems: over greeting people in her zeal to say hello, dragging me behind, and separately, foraging constantly on every walk. It took no time for our dog to become properly socialized, and totally ignore looking for edibles (and other stuff ). A very good dog is now even better thanks to Rebecca and Asheville Dog Academy.
A great experience from start to finish! Anna was our trainer, yes, ours and Barney's, and she was wonderful! She made learning fun and rewarding for all of us and helped us gain the confidence we needed to do our best for Barney. We could see results after each class and are so glad we chose professional training and Asheville Dog Academy! Thank you Anna!

I am so pleased with my 5 week reactive dog training program with Anna! She is truly one of a kind! My dogs were reactive, barking at other people and dogs and unfortunately involved in a dog fight that completely shattered my confidence. In one week doing the steps Anna showed me, my life was changed! I can finally walk, hike and play with my pup and feel completely confident I can handle any situation! We have a lot of knowledge and tips on safety Anna showed us as well! I cannot thank her enough for what she has done for me and my dog. The picture attached is me at a brewery living my best life all thanks to Anna! Never in a million years would think I could do that but her confidence is infectious and I am now able to go out with my dog and have FUN!! thank you Anna, we will definitely be back for your hiking class! -Millie yearwood
