FirstBarkTy was such a huge help to us! He was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. The at home training provided so many tools to help build our dog’s confidence and help him be more comfortable with guests. We saw improvements immediately! I would highly recommend working with Bow Wow Behavioral.

Our two dogs did a 7-day board & train stay at Bow Wow together, and I am so grateful for the care and attention they received there. They came back more bonded with one another, more confident, and seemingly eager to continue their training. Thanks Ty, Kyle, and Laura!
Ty is tremendous. After only a few sessions are dog's behaviour is so much better. He actually listens and is not aggressive wiith other dogs. Higly recommended .
