I highly recommend Carissa. She did an amazing job and we can now take our dog anywhere. It was a positive experience for both us and our dog.

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Can you give me an idea about the cost of training? Also, when do the classes take place?
All classes are private classes which allows you to get customized classes tailered just to you and your dog. I believe they are $55 for a hour but you will have to call her to confirm price. She has a small place off of giant city Rd. I highly recommend her, we used her for 2 of our dogs with outstanding results.

I am so happy that I found Golden Standard Canine Training. My Aussie pup was out of control and I was close to giving up before coming here. My dog and I both learned so much through private lessons and at home practice. I now have a very well behaved Aussie that gets to enjoy life without constantly being corrected. Highly recommend!!!

Utterly satisfied. Our black Lab Zoey has always been playful and cuddly, but we couldn’t keep her from jumping on people or chasing after other animals. Carissa had a lot of patience with Zoey (and us) as she trained her. Her expertise and experience are simply top notch and quickly had Zoey listening and obeying our directions on ways we couldn’t have imagined. If we ever have dog training needs, Carissa will absolutely be out first call. I’d recommend her to anyone who needs some training for their four-legged friends.

I brought my 1.5 year old golden retriever to work on e-collar training with Carissa. I had been training Indie since I got her at 8 weeks old, including basic obedience classes, but she still had some quirks to work through. Carissa helped Indie build her confidence and helped her learn how to behave both on leash and off leash. Now, Indie is a completely different dog and I can trust her completely off leash. HIGHLY recommend Golden Standard for any dog training! (Indie pictured with her celebratory treat for graduating to being trusted off leash)
Golden Standard helped us train our overly excitable Basset Hound and gave us the foundation to continue to work on being calm. Scheduling sessions was easy due to her flexible schedule. Will definitely go back to her if any behavior issues arise with our fur baby.
