SADC is the best! They are experienced, patient, and deeply passionate about helping dogs and their people live better together. My reactive dog did her initial program and has gone back for 2 alumni programs and multiple alumni group classes. So glad we found them!

Your search for dog training is over—these are the people you want to work with. SO knowledgeable, SO kind, SO patient with pets and humans. My dog had bitten two people and one dog. We had a 45 min initial meeting and made a plan for the “Peace of Mind” 20-day plan. Even 2 weeks in I noticed big changes—walks were more fun, my dog was having more fun in life, and I was feeling like things could really be easier. The staff here noticed an alteration in her gait that I didn’t notice and it turns out my dog probably has bilateral ACL tears (or the equivalent for dogs), so we are changing her supplements and treats and seeing orthopedics. I initially got a training quote from another program which would have been wonderful but required me to do a lot of the interventions; I work a busy busy job and couldn’t do it. Staff were patient with me too and educated me within the time limits of my life. I really feel like I’ve purchased peace of mind. My dog is more confident, more calm, and safer. What a wonderful experience.
I can’t say enough good things about SADC. Not only were they wonderful to my dog, they also taught me how to be a better, kinder, gentler dog owner. I came away with a ton of tools. The amount of stress that has been reduced in my home with the successful tips and tricks for my anxious pup.

SADC is THE place to go for behavior modification. I never thought I’d be comfortable leaving my dog with a trainer until I met Erica and Lynette. Their science based, force free approach has made life so much better for my dog and me. As experts in their field, they were able to notice things I never would have, and provide insights and assistance to get us to a level I’d never dreamed possible. I truly do not know where we’d be without them.
We took our sweet girl Oxanna to Erica and Lynn. She’s a high drive Westside German Shepherd. Sweetest girl in the world but doesn’t know what to shut off. They have done a great job in working thru her energy as well as her anxiety.
