FirstBarkMy dog Cookie and I had the absolute best experience with Happy Dogs! Deb and Piper are amazing trainers and were incredibly supportive during our pursuit of our Canine Good Citizen certification. This whole experience brought Cookie and I even closer and we have an even deeper understanding of how to communicate with each other. Thank you!

Piper is a fantastic (and very patient) trainer. She is punctual, professional, responsive, and reliable. It’s clear she loves dogs and I think that sets her apart from other trainers we’ve tried. Very compassionate, empathetic, and focused not only “correcting” behavior but on the wellbeing of the dog. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Happy dogs training is THE PLACE to go for agility and training in the North Charlotte. Piper and her team host the best group classes in the Lake Norman area. As another local trainer, I send all of my clients to Happy Dogs when they need group classes and are interested in trying out agility. Piper is hands down the most experienced agility instructor in the area and I love watching her work. She and Lori make learning agility exciting for the dogs and the humans. The puppy socialization class is a must for any puppies in Charlotte. Jump into the classes that are convenient for you, and pay as you go. Super fun and a great learning experience for young pups!

The trainers here are amazing, loving people. These folks really know what they're talking about and are super patient with their students. We brought our little (big) lady here and they worked with us to find what motivated her to listen and adjusted to her learning style to give us the best training environment. Carol says HELLOOO! to her Happy dog teachers! Training is a lifelong thing, but they gave us the tools to do keep up with what we learned.

Piper is the best! She is patient and understanding. Penny is our first GSD and we were not prepared to train her in any way. Piper came into our home, set a plan and worked with us to ensure that our girl was successful and happy. We did group classes that were super helpful, as well. Penny is still a puppy at 10months old, so we will continue to work with Piper and Happy Dogs Training for at least another 6-12 months. Training never stops with a dog. I would recommend Happy Dogs Training to anyone and everyone! 💚
