I seriously cannot recommend Dog Ops enough! From the first consultation, it was clear George and Adam are extremely professional and highly experienced trainers. Our 70 lb dog Cali went through their 4-week program for reactivity and leash walking issues (pulling and lunging at people and animals), and the results are honestly unbelievable. Before training, walks were stressful and exhausting, she pulled constantly, and her reactivity made it hard to feel in control. Now, walking her is actually fun again, and she enjoys it so much more too because it’s far less stressful for her too. She listens, stays focused, and I feel completely confident handling her in any situation. Adam is incredible at what he does. Not only did he transform Cali, but the in-home sessions made such a huge difference for us as owners. He taught us exactly how to handle her properly, and I feel so much more confident now, especially knowing I can manage her even in challenging situations. If you're looking for trainers in the Charleston area, these are the best! It’s absolutely an investment, but between the board and train program and the follow-up sessions at home, it is 1000% worth it. Truly life-changing for both us and our dog!

My 6 year old golden retriever has had at lease 4 trainers and nothing worked. I was directed to DOGS OPS because someone saw how I was being pulled while walking my dog. Thank goodness he directed me to this training spot. I now have the dog I can walk easily and we have a much better relationship. Thank you both for all you did for us. You will not be disappointed when you contact them.

We are very pleased with the training that George and Adam did with our puppy! She came back to us after the four-week board and train program a better behaved and better mannered puppy. We were kept informed on her progress through short videos about every 3 - 4 days. Even more importantly, the follow up visits to our home have helped us to follow through on keeping the training fresh.

Truly the best dog trainers in SC! Adam made sure we were comfortable as well as my pup. She is a happier, healthier, all around best dog! She did not change her character but a full 180 on her bad habits! I can’t recommend this place enough! We just got a puppy and are looking forward to putting him into the program as well! Don’t miss the opportunity to work with such amazing people!
