I have been taking my dogs to Pup'n Iron for at least 4 years now. I thoroughly did my research, google, videos, website, and even spoke with the owner Laurie, on Pup'n Iron before enrolling my dogs. I am extremely glad that I made the switch and starting using them. The staff is awesome, extremely knowledgeable, and caring. I couldn't ask for a better environment for my dogs to learn. Two years ago I started taking different classes with one of my dogs, Ginger, for example agility, nose work, rally (which she just earned her Ace title) and none of this could of been done without Laurie, Lana, Amber, and Jackie. Now let me talk about Jackie for a few- Jackie is the agility instructor and I never though this would be something I would be able to do with my dog, but Jackie has been an awesome instructor and I am so appreciative that she is teaching this class. But Laurie is OUTSTANDING and has helped me so much with my current dog, Danni. When I started with Danni I never thought she would be were she is today, but she is thanks to the advice and knowledge of Laurie and Amber. Amber is a great person and I am so glad I am able to take classes with her. You will not find a better facility to train your dogs at, and I know this because I used another facility and wasted my money, but no money has been wasted with Pup'n Iron. To end my review and the most important part about it is when I asked my dogs if they want to go to "class" they get extremely excited. They also LOVE Pup'n Iron and I will continue to use them forever as long as I have dogs in my life or Laurie retires (which my dogs and I hope is NEVER). I wish I could give them more than 5 stars because they truly deserve it.
My pup is excited to arrive for school every time
Thank you for all the help and work, Leia is better for meeting you guys!
Both of our dogs love it here. One of them used to be too scared to walk into new buildings, but now eagerly walks into Home Depot and loves the attention. The other is super shy, and already starting to come out of her shell. The staff is wonderful, and are truly dog lovers. I highly recommend this business
