Country Life K9 Training did wonders not only for my dog, Rookie, but for me as well. Rookie is super smart and had pretty much all the basic commands down but lacked accountability and confidence. Sending him to see Lauren and Sarah was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Rookie is now held accountable and listens in every situation, not just when there are no distractions. By sending him here I’ve also learned some things I can do to help him better understand this crazy world we live in. I love that they post videos and pictures daily when they are training so you can see what they are working on. That also helped me to understand what I could expect when we got rookie back at the end of the training. Overall 11/10 and would recommend to anyone. Everyone that’s seen rookie after training has commented on how well behaved he is and I have Lauren and Sarah to thank for that!

Could not recommend Lauren and Sarah more! They took our wild man Max - yellow lab - at a year and 3 months and turned him into a well behaved gentleman that we love taking with us when we go out. We always get compliments on how well-behaved he is for his age. Max will be boarding with them soon and we’re so thankful to have a place that’s close and that we feel 100% comfortable leaving him in their more than capable hands.

I have a hound/pittie female puppy who is a wild wild girl. She's very sweet, stubborn, and strong. She pulls on her walks, and jumps on everyone. She's so strong that I couldn't control her during our walks. Meeting Lauren was the best thing that happened to my family and Bella.…Read full reviewClose full review

I have a hound/pittie female puppy who is a wild wild girl. She's very sweet, stubborn, and strong. She pulls on her walks, and jumps on everyone. She's so strong that I couldn't control her during our walks. Meeting Lauren was the best thing that happened to my family and Bella. We decided to send her for training and prayed that Lauren could fix her. I'm here to tell everyone that Lauren did an AMAZING job training Bella. We are so happy with the results. Now we can really enjoy walking her and taking her in public without any fear. I would recommend Country Life K9 Training to everyone I know.

To say that Lauren is a miracle worker would be an understatement. When we took our 1 year old Australian Shepherd, Lucy to Lauren, she came with issues a mile long. Anxiety ridden, constantly pacing in and out of the house, pulling on the leash, lunging and barking at people and dogs, and counter surfing to name just a few. She had gotten out of the house a few times and even jumped up on a jogger on our street. We were at our wits end and I honestly thought we might not be able to keep her. Well, after a 4 week training session (and a couple follow up lessons), we have a new and improved dog! Lucy has a whole new set of manners, such as coming when called, going to "place" and heeling. In addition to that, she has come home a calmer and more affectionate dog. She still battles some anxiety and we are working through some leash reactivity with other dogs, but we are leaps and bounds from where we were! Lauren and Sarah have given us the tools and training to enjoy many years to come with Lucy. They care just as much about your dog's success as you do. If you have a dog that needs training, Country Life K9 Training is who you need!!!

We can't say enough good things about Country Life K9 Training. As soon as we signed adoption papers for Noodle and before we had even met him, we got him on the training calendar. They did such a great job with our now 2 year old Vizsla, Hank, we knew we'd want Noodle on the same level. Noodle went to training at only 7 months old as a wild man who loved to play, smell and mark everything on walks, and cause mischief around the house. He now walks politely on his leash (even next to his favorite playmate Hank), relaxes all day during our workday, and is extremely reliable off-leash. Not only does he listen, but he LOVES to come when called and lay on his cot. We regularly get compliments for how well-behaved our dogs are and we enjoy the freedom of being able to bring them with us to dog-friendly stores and restaurants!
