Great program that helped me take my Cane Corso's obedience to another level.
One of the best decisions I made to follow through with adult training after puppy school.
So, I will say this was a great experience. I have a Husky and they are known as a hard bred to train. When all was completed, my Husky is doing great and following my commands and hand movements. I have even used them to board her when I went on vacation, I would highly recommend them for dog training.

We absolutely loved this place, definitely recommend!. We used their boarding services for a couple of days while visiting relatives in the area. Krystal took such good care of our 9 month old German Shepherd, he was able to relax for a while during a very long road trip. Krystal took him for a walk and even got him to eat, which he hadn't been eating well since we had been on the road during our trip. We were able to see a few minutes of one of their training classes and she even gave us some great tips on training before we left.
