Question on Google
I have a 4mo old gsdmix, he barks alot, nips,and jumps at everything. Will y'all be able to help me that?

While you dog is still young is a great time to begin to address these problems! We have a rescue dog, also a GSD mix, that we got when he was about two years old. Having the help of a professional trainer made it possible for us to keep and retrain him. It was hard but worth it!

I have puppies that I would like to give to place for they can be train for someone . How do I go by giving them to a place of service.

Hi Martha: I’m sorry but I don’t know of any organizations that take owner turn in dogs for training. You could try the local rescues to see if they can help you re-home them.

Question on Google
We just got our pup we know nothing about him but we need help from kitty training to obedience. How much will this cost? And how long does it take?

First off, I loved this dog school..A+ A+ A+😃. U will not be disappointed. I enrolled my dog Lucy because I could already tell she was pretty smart & was a fast learner on the basic little things I was teaching her @ home. There weren't any behavior issues 4 us 2 have 2 overcome, so that was a good foundation 2 build on. When Lucy & I signed up, we went through the Kindergarten Class (sort of like pre-school 4 dogs). Then after we graduated we signed up 4 the Elementary Class...sort of like being a 1st or 2nd grader. The K class was about 5 weeks @ reasonably priced, the E class ran 4 weeks & involved field trips 4 teaching socialization. Class size was 3 -4 dogs w/owners and 1 teacher 4 the group. We had Miss Callie & she was knowledgeable, attentive, completely open to questions & explanations. We had homework printouts for practice & to be ready 4 class (one day per week). If it pup is only 8-10 weeks old, I'm pretty sure the have some kind of new beginners lessons....

Question on Google
Do you do service dog/emotional support dog training?

Hi Becca: We do all the obedience training necessary for SDs and can administer the public access test, but not the task specific behaviors. Emotional Support dogs do not require any specific training--they're basically pet dogs that allow you to live/lodge in places that do not allow dogs if you have a "need" letter from your provider. https://www.ada.gov/regs2010/service_animal_qa.html

Question on Google
My dog is a little over a year. He's very eager to learn but is high energy. He gets a little mouthy. He also jumps on people alot. If I came in could you help me with that?

By taking one of mine in, he really learned a lot. I felt it was totally worth it and have recommended to others. It was fun to watch the other dogs learn too.

Community answer · Eric St. John · 2019-09-21

She can work miracles with dogs. No doubt she can stop the jumping.

Community answer · Michael Morgan · 2022-09-21

There were 3 other dogs in the class that my service dog in training Buck was in. They all were very high energy and jumped up on people. By the end of the elementary class they were all like completely different dogs and would only get better if they continue on with the intermediate class.

Community answer · Rick “OEF_OIF_VET68” Long · 2019-09-21

We'd be happy to help. If he's fine with strange dogs and strange people I think a group class--Elementary for his age-- would be a good start.

Community answer · Such A Good Dog · 2019-09-21

I just need some help so my dog Dale can start his service training.

Community answer · Tenshi Bunny · 2019-09-21

Question on Google
My dog is very hyper active and uncontrollable it seems, i have tried to train him but maybe i just don’t know how, if i bring him here do you think it would help any? or is there other alternatives i should take?

Potty training and barking has been the main issues with him. I’ll try it out! Thank you!

Community answer · Alexis Smith · 2019-09-21

Hi Alexis: There are lots of techniques for high energy dogs to gain focus, and getting those extra tools may be what you need. If your dog has no trouble (aggression, fear) of strange people and strange dogs then a group class would be a good place to start.

Community answer · Such A Good Dog · 2019-09-21

I have no doubt they can help. Give her a try, you will be surprised how quickly she can help.

Community answer · Michael Morgan · 2019-09-21

Question on Google
When it says "Meets for 5 weeks" does that mean the $99 is for 1 class each week for 5 weeks or is it $99 per session?

It is $99 for the whole five week session.

Community answer · Samantha · 2019-09-21

Hi Joseph: It's $99 for the 5 week session.

Community answer · Such A Good Dog · 2019-09-21

Question on Google
I have a 1 1/2 year old golden doodle that is wonderful around my kids. But when other kids or adults come over...he's aggressive. Recommendations?? Will this training help??

I would ask about private sessions. The trainers will know how to help with this behavior.

Community answer · brodie lowery · 2019-09-21

The trainers at Such a Good Dog are really good and feel most dogs can be trained. They will definitely answer your questions in person or with a phone call. But my Anatolian shepherd did great with the first class and we will probably be going back for the subsequent training.

Community answer · Tamara Gardner · 2019-09-21

Question on Google
How old does the dog need to be to start training?

I'm so sorry for the late reply! Our Kindergarten classes start at 8 weeks old after at least 1 round of vaccinations.

Nicole is absolutely fantastic!! We struggled with a few issues with our golden pup (attention barking, jumping, over excitement) and after just 1 week with Nicole’s board and train she is like an entirely new dog. She listens so much better, is much more calm and doesn’t jump/bark hardly at all now. She also walks much better on a leash. Nicole provided us with the tools to move forward so we can continue improving with our girl. We are so grateful and highly recommend!!

It was a great experience the dog training is excellent

Chase Connell
5/5

This is the first time we have had a puppy, and we had trouble doing the same of the basics. We signed up for the kindergarten training class and Nicole helped our little girl progress really quickly. The handouts every week are very helpful and the feedback she gave to our training when we steered astray was very important to keep our girl on track.

Austin Graner
5/5

We completed the 5 week Elementary training class with our 1 year old Golden Retriever. Nicole was a great teacher, Chilli did a great job and was transformed through the class, we had a lot of fun and plan to complete the other more advanced training courses with her as well.

Allison Linden
5/5

Just finished the kindergarten class. We got a lot more out of it than I expected. Instead of just tricks and postures, you really learn the starters of dealing with dog behavior.
