Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.

What can a dog trainer help with?

A dog trainer can help you control your dog's behavior, communicate effectively with your dog, and build your dog's confidence. This can reduce dog reactivity and symptoms of separation anxiety, as well as reducing unwanted behavior. Many dog trainers use basic obedience methods - that means teaching the dog a small set of commands to help them know exactly what to do. A good trainer will also help you to become a confident dog handler. That means you'll learn how to use those commands together to navigate your dog through any situation. To make sure you reap all of the benefits of professional dog training, make sure your trainer has experience with your dog's breed and temperament, and that your trainer uses positive reinforcement training. Also, it's critical to ask your trainer how they will prepare you to be a better dog owner.

Question on Google
Is it OK to send your dog away for training?

While it's natural and expected for both dogs and their humans to miss each other while apart, sending your dog away for training can have some very positive benefits for you dog. The distance from your dog during their training can be a big boost to their confidence, which has shown to improve their socialization skills and could even help with dogs who exhibit separation anxiety. It's important that you find a dog trainer who offers the atmosphere and enrichment that makes your dog's time away from home a positive experience with lasting benefits. Canine Academy's lush 7-acre campus and Customer Commitment towards the health, safety and well-being of your dog can help you rest easy, knowing that while your dog is learning the basics of their training program they're being spoiled around the clock by the most dedicated, dog-loving staff around.

We sent our dog there for 3 days. They told us she was stubborn. She remains untrained.

We had a wonderful experience with our two dogs at canine academy! Our trainer Emma was so good with them, very friendly and responsive, and the training was incredibly effective! I left feeling like my dogs were trained but also that I had been trained to handle all kinds of situations! Would highly highly recommend - great for reactive dogs, anxious dogs, etc.

Great training! While expensive, we basically got a new dog in a week. Our little buddy went in slightly trained and came out an ultra good boy. Our trainer, Kayla did a great job working with him and us even tho he was very stubborn and we were struggling to train him ourselves. While it was expensive, they offered no interest financing thru a provider which helped. And for what we paid we feel we got good value in now having a great companion dog for the rest of his life

5/5

Saw a huge difference in just 2 weeks with how much our dog learned and calmed down. Our trainer, Shannon, was very communicative, got amazing results with our boy and helped us learn and obtain everything we needed to keep training at home. We have felt very supported through the whole process.

Our 7mo GSP attended the group training in Columbus with Emma as our trainer. I appreciated how the class was built on a simple, solid foundation. Emma focused on the core behaviors and communication skills that create lasting success. Each lesson built naturally on the last, making it easy for both us and Poppy to learn and grow together. The transformation we saw in our pup in just one month was really cool to see - no more gentle leader within two weeks was a huge win! I wish we had found them years ago with our other GSP. Emma truly seems like she was made for this. She genuinely seems to enjoy the challenge of figuring each dog out and celebrating their progress along the way. Highly recommend this class if you’re willing and able to put in the work at home!
