These folks are absolutely amazing! We left our lab, Anubis, with them for a month for obedience training and behavioral modification and got him back as a completely different animal, in a great way. After a couple more months of training he’s an official service dog!!!! Thank you guys so much for your help!!!

We took our 12 week old golden retriever puppy Cooper to Bucks training for a 3 week boarding training. From the moment we dropped him off the trainers were very informative which made us feel more comfortable leaving him. We got daily pictures and video updates on his training. Cooper struggled with biting, listening, and completing his potty training. When we picked him up he was more confident, attentive, and had a much better foundation then before plus they were able to get him fully potty trained in the time they had him. Our puppy also enjoyed lots of socialization with other dogs and got lots of love from all the trainers at Bucks like he was their own. When we went to leave we could tell everyone was really going to miss him there. We are so so thankful to Bucks and look forward to continuing our puppies training. Highly recommend Bucks training!!

Our 7 month old Aussiedoodle rescue was exhibiting a lot of behaviors we didn’t like. He was bullying our older dog, barking constantly, beating down doors and just generally unruly. I contacted Stephanie, and we had almost an hour conversation about Bodhi’s behavior and his needs. She didn’t upsell me, and genuinely cared about us and our pups. We drove from Norfolk to Bucks and opted for the 2 week boarding program. We were so impressed when we dropped him off, and knew we had made the right choice. Every day we received multiple videos and photos of Bodhi’s progress, and the trainers interacting with him. The farm is impressive. The trainers train to a holistic approach of what you would want in your home, and your dog feeling loved and safe. Bodhi is a different (but still goofy) dog! I ABSOLUTELY recommend Bucks. This place is a GEM in dog training and behavior. It’s like a second loving home for the pups in their care. Absolutely worth every penny. The staff and owners are amazing.
