Question on Google
Is this a service dog training facility to train my dog to be a service dog?

The location is used for multiple dog activities. I haven't had any exposure to what Cloud K-9 does, sorry. I go for dock diving.

Question on Google
At what age for a puppy should training begin?

Puppies are sponges when it comes to learning. We recommend starting training as soon as you can. We do want the puppies in our group classes to have at least 2 sets of vaccinations, but can do lessons in your home before the pup has their vaccinations. You can look up the socialization protocol put in place by the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior for more on the importance of socialization and training at young ages.

Question on Google
How much would it be to train two dogs? I have a pit and a poodle and am trying to get them used to eachother but so far it's not working as good

Clases for 6 weeks are 120 dollars, I believe it's per dog but I'm not certain. If you want to get two dogs used to each other I think the head trainer Claren offers private lessons :)

Claren at Cloud K-9 turned our whole world around with Ripley. He’s a very, very active Aussie poodle mix, and a super happy little guy, but we were at a loss as to how to properly train him and direct him. I had Of course tried numerous YouTube’s and other avenues online. But it just seemed to confuse him and me as well. Claren has such a smooth, consistent process And so much patience! Thank you, Claren for getting us pointed in the right direction without making us feel incompetent. :)

Business response

Thank you so much, Barb, for this wonderful review. We're thrilled Claren's patient, consistent approach helped Ripley and your family feel confident and set you on the right path. It’s great to hear Ripley is doing well — we love working with active, happy dogs like him. Please reach out anytime if you need more support or follow-up training.

Claren did an outstanding job helping us with our 5 year old Aussie Hazy, who had become very anxious and scared of going for walks due to surround noises (construction, thunder, gunshots, etc). She gave us great tips to use to get him used to being outside (extra long lesh, snacks, let him lead the way, don’t force, etc.). We have been working with Hazy for a few months now and have seen great improvement in his anxiety and wanting to go for walks. Claren’s training methods work, and she never used force or threats to get him to comply, like other trainers had tried to do in the past. She was so great. We would recommend anyone use Claren for their dog training needs.

Business response

Thank you, Ron. We're thrilled Claren was able to help Hazy overcome his noise-related anxiety using gentle, force-free techniques like the extra-long leash, treats, and letting him lead. It's wonderful to hear you've seen great improvement over a few months and that her approach worked where others did not. We'll share your kind words with Claren and appreciate your recommendation.

Claren is amazing! We wanted to help focus our energetic border collie pup in a positive direction and Claren gave us tons of insight and meaningful instruction. I will forever be grateful for her help in creating beneficial interactions with our Maisy!!! I would give her 10 stars if I could!

Business response

Thank you so much for this incredible review! Maisy (and you!) werr such a joy to work with, and I’m thrilled to hear she’s channeling all that border collie energy in positive ways. I’m grateful for the trust you placed in me and so happy our sessions made a difference. Please give Maisy some extra love from me—and don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need anything in the future!

I recently adopted a 2-year old dog that had been in a kennel for most of her life. I desperately needed training for her. I asked around and several individuals recommended this company. I called them a few times during the day and left messages. Their phone greeting instructed me to go to their website and make a reservation for a conversation. At that time, the first time available appointment was a week and a half out! I also emailed asking how far out are they scheduling for one on one training. I also asked for their prices. First, I don’t want to wait a week and half for a conversation to find out that they have a busy schedule ; secondly, I am retired and on a tight budget and wanted to know if I could afford their prices. I have NEVER seen a company operate in this manner. No phone calls returned, no emails returned and no one who picks up the phone during business hours. I call this POOR customer service!

Business response

Hi there,<br><br>I’m very sorry to hear about your frustrating experience while trying to get in touch. I understand how stressful it can be when you’ve just adopted a dog with special needs and you’re trying to find help quickly.<br><br>I do want to clarify a few things, as I take communication and customer service seriously. I checked my records and did not receive any voicemails with the concerns mentioned, and I also did not receive an email from you. I’m a single-person business, so if I’m actively working with clients or dogs, I’m not always able to answer the phone immediately—which is why my voicemail directs people to schedule a call through the website. That system helps ensure every inquiry gets dedicated, uninterrupted time.<br><br>I truly wish we had connected, and I’m sorry that didn’t happen in your case. If you’re still in need of support with your new dog, I’d be more than happy to speak with you and see if I can help or at least point you in the right direction.<br><br>Wishing you and your new dog all the best.
