There are a number of factors that we evaluate prior to building a training package for you such as your dog’s age, temperament, previous training, as well as the desired goals of the owner. Because of these factors, we offer a free demonstration & consultation as an opportunity to meet with your family as well as your dog to gain insight into the unique circumstances that affect your dog’s training.

We have a 4 month old puppy, who as we expected, is a handful. We started with the basic puppy training, 3 at home sessions, one on one with us and the trainers. Our puppy has made big strides with the skills and tips from the trainers. Emily and Ryan are both great and clearly love dogs. I would 10/10 recommend them to anyone looking to start with a good foundation for their new puppy or rescue companion. Reasonably priced and worth every penny

We have 2 dogs that just needed some extra help. Only 10 days and these dogs have done a 180. Amazing. They know all the necessities. And to top it off the Trainers are AMAZING too. They're friendly, punctual, honest and obviously love dogs. If anyone needs any type of training for their dogs 100% recommend these guys!
