Dog Savvy Dog Training

After going through a couple of other training programs, I was convinced that we were never going to be able to get our dog to stop jumping up on people. But Andrew was able to help us fix that problem, in addition to several others, quickly and easily. Our dog is like a new well behaved and enjoyable pet! Andrew is amazing with dogs and great with people too. I am so glad that we signed up with Dog Savvy! Thank you, Andrew!

First things first - I would highly recommend Dog Savvy. We had spent a lot of money on traditional obedience training that really didn’t change her behavior. She still got overexcited when meeting guests, didn’t listen when we asked her to do things, jumped all over everyone. It was really stressful and frustrating to live with her on a daily basis, especially since we’d spent so much money already. After starting the THRIVE program, we noticed immediate changes in her attitude and behavior. Literally a few days in and we felt like she was a totally different dog. Calmer, more attentive and visibly less tense and hectic. Today is a whole new life. She listens, she’s easy going, she is able to relax with our guests and doesn’t have embarrassing behavior. When she’s off-leash she has an incredible return and all of this was refreshingly simple and easy for us to do even with our busy schedules. 5 stars for Dog Savvy!!!

We took a 15 month old great dane in as a rescue, and upon arrival she was a ball of nerves. She literally trotted around our house in a panic continuously! She would panic if she wasn’t in the exact same space as my husband, and was suffering from severe separation anxiety. She swung her back end into us, our walls, and our sofa, with her size, this is not easy to deal with. She whined, cried, and barked at absolutely everything. Her world was in total turmoil. It was apparent that she was struggling with anxiety, and she needed help. We needed help. Our once calm and peaceful household was turned upside down. We were looking for something different than conventional training, as we could see her anxiety was the root of the issues we were experiencing, and that needed to be dealt with, not masked. Thankfully we were sent to Andrew and Brittany by a referral. After our very first session , we could see a huge difference. By the second lesson she was able to do so much learning as her anxiety was already substantially less. After each lesson, we could see so much improvement, even with things we didn’t do direct training to stop. The calming nature of the training was carrying over into many aspects of our lives. We were planning a cross country RV trip just 4 short months after we started working with dog savvy. We were able to take her with, and she could go out and about with us on our vacation! She is a totally different dog than the one we took in! I have no doubt in my mind that this wouldn’t have been possible without Andrew and Britany. If you’re looking for a amazing and qualified trainers, look no further. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Andrew and Brittany!

Dog Savvy has made a huge impact on my pet and myself. Before Dog Savvy my sweet girl would jump on others which was not always welcomed. Under the training direction she was quickly making the adjustment to jump but not touch in someone’s personal space to no jumping at all. For my friends and family to visit and enjoy my girl without the unwanted excited jumping is a win for all of us. She gets much more attention in her more relaxed state and she is loving that! I have been a pet owner my entire life and Dog Savvy has taught me so much about dogs I never knew. Without a doubt all my pets are benefiting from the training with Dog Savvy. Grateful to have found them!
