The Coventry School Inc

(Pre-Covid Review) I love this place! I have taken my two puppies here for training and socialization as soon as they were eligible to go. My first girl, I took 6 years ago, for puppy kindergarten. She would have a blast! Because she isn't food motivated it was a little hard getting her to focus because she just wanted to see the other dogs and people! At this time, they also had a social hour which was adjacent to my class, so that was a lot of fun to do on her school days. I took my newest dog for puppy kindergarten, too, a little over two years ago now. She also had a blast! I would take her to day camp/super puppy club on some off days. I ADORE the little notes they would give you at pick up telling you about her day and what she did. The staff here is great. The facility is huge, clean and well maintained. They really love the dogs and you can tell. I love their training methods as well. This is truly the place to go if you want to correct issues you may have, or like me, just to get off on the right foot. When I was working in a veterinary office, we would recommend them to all our new puppy clients and would always hear amazing feedback and thanks for the recommendations. It would be so neat to see super scared puppies change through their training there each time we would see them for their vaccines, how confident and happy they became. My coworker also took her reactive adult dog there for corrective training and was so pleased with the outcome. They have so many different classes, from group basic fundamentals to super cool specialty skill stuff that would really be fun for dog and handler. Even private lessons! Such awesome things to keep your furry friend happy and stimulated! I clearly can't say enough about this place and hope everyone goes to check it out, it is well worth it!

I have been taking dogs to Coventry since 2010 for training. My current dog has been going weekly for the last 2 years. During the initial covid period we did virtual trick classes since I didn’t want to miss out on any training time. My dog loves Ace and Play. They engage his mind by working with the dogs during the day along with allowing them play time. My dog excitedly goes with them and doesnt look back which is what most of the dogs do. Over the years the owners Vinnie and Liz’s compassion for the dogs and the people who own them has really impressed me. When I missed a nosework class with Vinnie (oh they are a blast especially when you start competing) because my dog was sick he wrote me a kind email and offered to have His wife Liz call me to talk about their experiences with their many dogs. I took him up on it and had a lovely conversation with her. She even followed up later in the week to check in on me. I don’t think I could trust another place with my dog. They are just the best, Denise and Cato
