Questions & answers

What people have asked about this business.

I just adopted a 3 yo BC about 3 months ago. She is very dog reactive so I've been doing some training to build her confidence and trust. I was told scent work would be great for her. Would I be able to bring her to your facility?

Yes. You can come and visit our facility anytime to observe our classes.

5/5

Very knowledgeable staff, that provides information that you don't find on basic internet tutorials. They also accommodated our very energetic, at at times aggressive pup, with proper seperating and room to get some anxiety out! Affordable, yet effective training.

A wonderful place for training. The instructors are experienced and great with the people and dogs. Train, train, and more training. Great place. We will use them again without hesitation.

I'm taking a therapy dog training class and I'm learning some new training tools to help me teach me and my dog to be better.

Pre-agility here was so great! Arlyn was so patient and a knowledgeable instructor. She made classes fun for both us and our dog. We hope our next instructor is just as good. We have signed up for the beginners agility class and can't wait!

Had a terrible experience with a beginner barn hunt class. Dog’s foundation in barn hunt effectively ruined. Zero guidance was provided by instructor, class was instead ran by a trainee rat wrangler who provided no instruction and did not appear to have experience with dogs with high degree of drive. 0/10 do not recommend.
