FirstBarkI could not ask for a better, more thoughtful, more insightful, more generous group of trainers for me and our dog! But mostly they trained me, which I needed badly. We worked with outstanding Emily, but I saw all the trainers doing exceptional work. Jennifer runs a great business. Our dog is the best heal walker and place stayer we have ever had. Thank you!!

Our trainer Justin was thorough and patient with both us and our dog. He explained things clearly and we saw results with our dog immediately. It’s been a great experience and I’d definitely recommend!
Excellent training. 1 year old Boxer. 3 week course was great. She is now very well mannered. Trainer Amber was Excellent.
Amber is outstanding. Me and my year old standard poodle were a complete mess. After 6 sessions both my poodle and I are more confident and much happier. We can heal, sit, settle, stay and place. Still blows me away! Without this help I would have never put things together - I am happy and so is my pup!

Emily and the LA School for dogs are fantastic. The training of our 2 year old Pumpkin went so fast and was well worth it. Emily understands dog psychology and explains things to us in a positive and easy to understand way. Her upbeat and energetic personality carries over to both the owners as well as to the dogs. Our dog has learned so much in a short period. Can’t say enough good things about Emily and the LA School for Dogs
