Helena has been a wonderful trainer. She’s very responsive and always punctual. She helped us work through some difficult behaviors with our adopted Labrador poodle mix. Would highly recommend to others and have already referred her to friends and family.

About Dogs Got Class® Dog Training
I am a Certified Dog Trainer, serving RI and MA. Harm free, treat-based training method is followed. No E-Collars, choke or prong collars used. Training sessions are private and in your home to start. We move outdoors, using locations that will help strengthen your dog's good manners when they see other dogs, meet new people and see and hear unfamiliar sights and sounds. Loose leash walking and no jumping are popular training requests. Families learn to teach their dogs new behaviors to take the place of the unwanted ones. I am available to my clients between session to help trouble shoot if difficulties with homework or new behaviors arise. Let's get started!

I left a message and she never called me back. I guess she didn't want my business.

When we first got our 4 month black lab (100% lab = energy is on 1000%) Indica, we quickly realized that we needed to get someone on our team to help us with all this energy!! Indica was new to this world and needed some help in how to navigate her new home. We have never had a dog and had no clue what to expect from dog training. Our experience with Helena has been nothing less than positive and we are so grateful she entered not only Indica's life but ours as well. Helena's knowledge of dogs and how she interacts with them is truly amazing! Every week we practiced what Helena taught us and every week, without fail Indica succeeded in the training journey. The key, which Helena always reminded us , is being consistent with training! We worked on everything from basic commands (sit, down, stay, leave it) to addressing behaviors we needed to break (jumping on people, picking up and chewing on items that were not dog toys). She even got Indica to stop pulling when on our walks(loose leash walking)! We are so pleased with Indica's behavior!!! There is no doubt Helena's love for our canine friends, as well as her dedication and understanding of what it takes to train them. She even took it upon herself, before moving to Rhode Island, to find a new trainer and dog walker for Indica. She made sure that the new trainer was a perfect fit for our needs. Helena is truly missed both by us and Indica. We would have her back as a trainer/walker in an instant. If you need someone to train your dog, do not hesitate on having Helena be that person !!
My yorkie, Marko, had a serious problem with biting and barking at anyone coming near me. I reached out to Helena Montgomery via video chat and she gave me step by step instructions on how to curtail his behavior...and it is still working! Thank you, Helena!!
We have been using Helena's dog walking service for several weeks and couldn't be happier. She is wise about dogs, always on time and handles our 2 year old Newfoundland like the pro she is. We highly recommend her services. - Bill and Sarah F. , Providence
