Words cannot truly describe how happy we are with The Art of DOG. We trusted Dave and his team with our rescued Vizsla, Henrik. After previous failed training attempts with other trainers for resource guarding, we were at a loss. Feeling like a failure to our dog and not knowing what the future held for our pup and our family, we needed major help. After one conversation with Dave, I knew there was hope. Henrik did a 3 week board and train, and he thrived. We received updates and pictures (which totally helped this dogmom get through the 3 weeks). Dave and his trainers are some of the best in the area. WE have the dog we knew Henrik could be. We are the dog owners that we NEED to be, after training with Henrik and Mariah as well. Six months strong and we still have the foundation of his training in place. We are enjoying the lake, our backyard and hiking trails without concern. Henrik loves his sister Luka, and they are the companions we hoped they would be. Henrik follows his commands as second nature. We finally did it! Thank you Dave and crew for setting us up for success and your continued support. Five Stars are just NOT ENOUGH!

We sent our dog to a three week board and train. Atlas has been back for a month and he is doing so well. He was very reactive to people and he pulled on the leash all the time. His behavior improved so much, we are able to enjoy walks with him and take him around new people. Everyone at the art of dog treated Atlas so well and every time I saw him on Instagram he seemed so happy! Thank you for everything!

We sent our 2 pups for 3 weeks of board and train, One younger and one older pup. They thrived! They absolutely loved being there and looked so happy. They came home good boys and eager to please. We will continue working diligently with them but we are over the moon with their training and behavior! Dave was very responsive to all our concerns and questions. The trainers were both very sweet as well and our pups loved them all. While they have only been home a few days we know this was the best investment in our family! Highly recommend bringing your dogs here.

Dave and his team are wonderful! We had so many issues with our Golden Retriever, Murphy. After a four week stay at The Art of Dog, our issues with Murphy were resolved. I can now enjoy taking long walks with a dog that behaves. Dave also provides excellent support when you bring your dog home. We highly recommend The Art of Dog…if you send your dog there you won’t regret it!

Extremely knowledgeable and professional group of trainers! I felt so comfortable in my first experience with a trainer. It's easy to see that they love what they do. I cannot recommend them enough!
