FirstBarkThe trainers were incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and professional. The training techniques were easy to follow, and they made sure I felt confident continuing the training at home. Highly recommend this team for anyone looking to train their dog—they truly care about the dogs and their owners!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Do the trainers at your facility use e-collars on the dogs?
Yes they use e-collars. It comes at week 5 of the 10 week off leash program. They take the time to thoroughly explain and show you what is going on with the collars. It is not in any way inhumane!! This was by far the best investment that we made in our dog....so much so that when we got our second puppy, I am currently going through the 10 week off leash program with him as well!!! To me, there is no higher praise that I can give someone other than repeat business!

Yes they use e-collars. It depends on the season that the dog is currently in as to if they are in the e-collar stage. We just completed our 10 week session and we could not be happier.

When I was there I did not see any of the dogs with e-callers

We got a German Shepherd from Larry Phan. Chili took your course on 06/ 2016. We didn't we receive much paper work. Can he be re-enrolled with your school and do you have any paperwork showing he is a pure bred? Maureen
You will definitely need to talk to Andy about that

andy and his team were amazing through every training session. very patient, honest, respectful & they treated our dog like he was their own. They explained every step of the process, and helped us to reach our goals. They always made us feel comfortable & welcome, & even got excited when we would come in for our sessions. The lovely lady at the front desk, Lauren, made everything go so smoothly & did everything she could to accommodate my partner & i’s schedule. i’m greatful for the amazing experience, and the friends we made along the way! They always exceed our expectations, and i will always recommend Dogs By Andy !
I have had my dog boarded here for a weekend and he did great. He's known to be aggressive but they took great care of him. We're in the process of training as well and it's great so far. Everyone is super knowledgable and friendly.

We sent our Doberman to Dogs by Andy for the in kennel training, he spent his first birthday there. His trainer was Jared, he is great! He sent us pictures on our dogs birthday and many updates. Our dog came out of training the same happy and fun dog but is very obedient and minds excellent! He used to pull on the leash but not after training, he also learned so many new commands. I highly recommend Dogs by Andy!
