Who has training class for service dog? Reno area
Hi Julia, nice to hear from you! No one, that we're aware of. Service dog training is a highly specialized area of training and as far as we know, the closest trainers are in NorCal. Sorry we couldn't be more help. Hope you're doing well!

Awesome place my doggies love the training.
Joanna is amazing and so supportive. I was so impressed with her knowledge and insight into cat conflicts i'm experiencing within my home. her assessment of the cats involved, their personalities and behaviors, was spot on. i am hopeful that with her guidance, my home can once again be conflict free. she is wonderful.

Monica is AMAZING! She helped us with our golden retriever Frosty. He had leash problems and would jump on people and grab their arms with his mouth when he got excited. Monica provided us with great strategies to overcome the issues. She understands the dog brain like a psychologist and gave us some extremely useful insights that help us resolve any issues that arise. We also loved the fact that she came to our house and office to work with Frosty. Monica is not only an outstanding professional, but she has a wonderful personality and makes the training a ton of fun. I highly recommend Fur and Feather Works!

We took our puppy to Monica for a series of private lessons. Duffy was afraid of all dogs and most humans. Monica was wonderful, patient, and knowledgeable. After her sessions, we enrolled in Basic Manners with Heather. Because of the work we did with Monica, Duffy could attend a group class. Between Monica’s sessions and before Heather’s, Duffy was becoming more confident and not so jumpy. We have had four sessions out of six with Heather, and Duffy now has three special dog friends in our neighborhood, and he approaches their owners with confidence. This is a wonderful group of very competent instructors.
