No classes..my puppy on the first day was put in a kennel and that's where he stayed..trainer started he was to social and was told he needed private classes. I played almost 400.00 for 12 classes and he hasn't been back since. I also asked for a refund and no one called me back

Canine College is a great place to train for basic and advanced obedience, as well as a variety of dog sports. I've trained here in scent detection and in protection, and have been part of the working dog club since it was founded (and before it moved to this location). Sandra (the owner) and Hedy (the other trainer and behaviorist) are educated, knowledgeable, helpful, honest, and straightforward. They are able to solve behavior issues that range from reactivity to fear and work with you to set realistic goals and meet them. This is a training facility where the trainers will NOT lie to you to get your money. Nobody here would tell you that your adult Husky would be a great Service Dog and that they'll have it trained in 6 weeks - unlike other scammers out there. Canine College will be honest and straightforward, help you find the right dog for your purpose (if needed) and work to help you meet your goals. They're no-nonsense, no-BS. In addition, Canine College's owner has created several Facebook groups that help local area pet owners for free! She doesn't just put her energy into her paid job, but also into making the lives of dog owners and their pets better in her spare time!

Sandra and canine college has been a HUGE help with my dog baymax, (siberian husky) and helping me push my own training abilities. Shes open minded and listens to your concerns and goals with your dog. Bay has so far come a long way from.being an anxious dog with some dog aggression. He can tbe around dogs now and training wise, should be able to take the canine good citizen test soon. I would recommend her for a lot of "dog problems" and helping people reach milestones and goals with their dogs!

I have taken my dog Luna to many of Sandras classes so we can get our cgc, we came in with a decent amount of knowledge, and we needed up leaving with even more! I can ask Sandra and Hedi for advice without being judged or getting told it’s a stupid question and can apply what I’ve learned in class to my other dogs that I have at home.

Was able to get a last minute booking to lodge my dog during the Thanksgiving holiday. She was well cared for and the price was great.
