Randy and Scott are awesome! Our Nala had a tough start. We rescued her and took her to Alpha Canine 10 days later. We knew she was incredibly smart, but had been left to raise herself. After 4 weeks of training and several training sessions for us, she is doing great! Thank you guys for taking such good care of her and for all your help abd time getting us settled with her. She loves both of you and she loves her new home. She's happy and we're happy with her. Such a good girl! I would recommend y'all to anyone who wants their dog trained well and treated just as well!

Randy and his team took our two dachshunds (8mo & 14 mo) for obedience training. They came out of the month-long program with many new skills. They are a pleasure to take out in public now. Pet Store, Festivals, or just for a walk… they are tuned in to commands now! Highly Recommend.

We adopted our dog at 4 months old from a shelter. He is very loving and was getting very big. We did the once a week puppy training and that helped, but by 8 months and so big, he was beyond control. We needed a professional dog trainer.

We adopted our dog at 4 months old from a shelter. He is very loving and was getting very big. We did the once a week puppy training and that helped, but by 8 months and so big, he was beyond control. We needed a professional dog trainer. After extensive research, we decided on Randy at Alpha Canine. Was not the cheapest nor the most expensive option, but worth every dollar. We didn't want to pay money for a board and train that was simply staying at someone else's house and hope he would be trained. The facility is extremely clean. Our pup was well cared for. Randy stayed in communication over the 4 weeks including sending videos. More importantly he spent a lot of time with us to teach us how to handle and continue training. He does police dog, drug detection, and service dog training. Our pup is not cut out for that, but we now have a well behaved dog that is a very happy member of the family. I highly recommend Alpha Canine and the expertise of Randy to anyone that loves their pup and wants it well behaved. It's great being able to take our dog on road trips, hiking, to restaurants now.

Randy and his entire team are--above and beyond--positively phenomenal. They love what they do, they KNOW what they're doing, and (most importantly) they ADORE each dog they train. My 8 month old cockatoo, Beatrice, was (and I mean this with the utmost love and affection) an absolute, unruly spaz before I brought her to Alpha Canine. 4 weeks later and the results are nothing short of miraculous. Every step of the way, Randy was kind and very prompt in responding to any and all of my inquiries. I will FOREVER be grateful and FOREVER recommend Alpha Canine's services to any and all dog parents who wish to create a healthy, obedient, fulfilling relationship with their fur-baby.

My wife and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We have a dog that was having issues obeying us and had too much energy around our newborn so we sent him for the 4 week course. Randy and Scott took such great care of our dog during the training process. He came back to us a completely different dog. He is incredibly obedient now and we have such a great time walking him on a leash in our neighborhood where before we couldn’t even walk five minutes without turning back home. We now have a dog that has such a great foundation to build on thanks to the guys. The level of professionalism and care that we received was second to none. They truly treated our dog like he was one of their own. We will recommend them any chance we get!!!
