Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
How much is it?
Private lessons are available. Around $80 for an hour. More reasonable than other places we contacted. But Macatawa also offers group classes, with several dogs in room. Listen to trainer then work with your own dog. These rates are much cheaper. We are in group class now. Highly recommended. Thx, Tim.

My name is Judie Schippa and my dogs name is Duke. We took one of your classes last August. Duke has been mouthing me, just me as far as I now. I tell him no and tell him to sit. I don't know what to do. we have little ones visit.
I recommend calling Trainer Erin :)

We’ve been taking our pup to puppy socialization classes until he is old enough to train and we absolutely love Erin and what she does for our puppy. The classes are free and Erin takes the time out of her day to put these classes on for the puppies benefit. Our pup, Fenrys, has improved so much with his biting and he’s learning how to play with other dogs. Erin also communicates to all the puppy parents what happens and what she is doing and watching for with the pups during these classes. Getting to watch Fenrys play and learn is so much fun and we are so thankful for Erin and these classes!
I’ve been bringing my two puppies to the puppy socials for the last several weeks. They have so much fun and the pups LOVE getting to meet and play with new friends. Plus it’s free! Highly recommend!
Very helpful information you can use. Individualized so that the training firs into your life.
Our family has greatly benefitted from Erin’s in-home training. She’s worked with us with door greetings, redirecting and understanding the mindset of our herding pup, Binnie. Erin is knowledgeable and able to improvise. She came highly recommended by several neighbors who have done both in-home training and group classes, and we’re glad we followed their advice. Thank you!
