We completed training with Ridgeside K9 Summerville about a year ago, and I intentionally waited to write this review so I could speak to the long-term results. One year later, I can confidently say the training has been truly life-changing for our dog and our family. Our dog was found on the streets and came to us with deep trust issues. He was fearful, reactive, and even bit our trainer twice early on. Despite this, Tara never gave up on him. Tara approached his training with patience, structure, and an incredible understanding of behavior. The training covered obedience, off-leash work, board-and-train, and behavior modification and the results have lasted. Today, he is a confident, well-trained dog who trusts us and can safely navigate real-world situations. The foundation they gave us continues to hold strong, and we regularly attend group training sessions to reinforce skills and keep him progressing. What truly sets Ridgeside apart is the owners. Their support doesn’t end when training does. They are always available to help work through any challenges that come up, offer guidance, and genuinely care about every family they train with. You never feel alone in the process. If you’re looking for trainers who deliver real, lasting results, especially for dogs with difficult pasts. I cannot recommend Ridgeside K9 Summerville highly enough!
