Words could simply never express how grateful, thankful, & blessed I am for the Houndstooth team. I couldn’t have had a better experience with any other training facility. I researched for over two years to try and find a good team who is actually reliable and would do everything in there power to protect my dogs as if they were their own. I can genuinely say I found that with the Houndstooth training team. After over a year of continuously sending my dogs to them for either tune ups or over night stays for when I go away I know I can trust them with my boys and I know no one runs their dog training operation as cautiously or effectively as they do.
Their training, safety & entire operation are unmatched. Without this wonderful team my two dogs would never have been able to live together without a problem and my entire goal was really just that, for them to be civil together in the same home. Thanks to Houndstooth they have lived together and absolutely love each other to pieces. Jax needs to be corrected occasionally because of his high energy he gets overwhelmed but all around they are doing AMAZING together.
I originally sent my two Golden Retrievers Jax and Chewy to Olivia + Emme in January for the 8 week service dog training.
Jax was sent specifically for resource guarding and leash training and Chewy was sent for being reactive to other pups. Through this training program I learned along with the pups how to deal with these types of situations if they ever arise again which makes me a more confident and active dog owner.

Olivia and Emilee are amazing. When you bring your dog to Houndstooth, they treat the dog as their own. Our nervous puppy did the 8-week training. At the end, she came back very confident. She learned all of the basic commands and was still a joy to be around. She came back so confident that our puppy thought she was the Queen of the neighborhood. And she wanted the neighborhood to know it . Olivia and Emilee worked extensively to train us. They taught us how to properly walk with her so we can all enjoy walking through the neighborhood.

Olivia trained my 10 month old puppy and I couldn’t have asked for better results! Can now go without a leash and she won’t leave my side and never gets off place until released. My puppy had never really been around other dogs before sending her there and since coming back she is much more socialized and doesn’t bat an eye when other dogs walk by. Also the consistent communication and updates while my puppy was there made the process smooth and easy. I would recommend Houndstooth to anyone who is looking for a dog trainer.

Sent my very reactive dog to Houndstooths board & train and was so pleased to see what they were able to do for him in such a short period time. They communicate constantly, give so much support, and really set you up for success bringing them home. He came back able to go on walks without constant tugging, can walk past people/dogs without any reaction, able to do things he didn’t have the confidence for before, and overall happy and healthy. Already started recommending them to friends and family!
