The Dog Institute of Williamsburg

I've been very impressed with The Dog Institute. Elizabeth and Co. have had a tremendous impact on our family from day 1. Before working with the dog institute, we were concerned we wouldn't be able to make our current situation work due to some early challenges that felt unmanageable. Elizabeth worked with us and was able to make incredible progress in just a week. We couldn't be happier. Additionally as new challenges come up Elizabeth is there to help us out. We've been participating in the puppy curriculum and have been impressed at what we've been able to do in such a short amount of time. Elizabeth is very involved in the training and her instruction is very easy to follow. On top of all this, our pup absolutely loves her. The play and trains are also high quality. This is our pups absolute favorite place to go and tries to take us there every morning on his walks. He's made some great friends and the staff is attentive and trustworthy. From one very happy member, I would absolutely recommend the dog institute.

TDI was a lifesaver for me and my family. I was overwhelmed with my energetic puppy and Elizabeth (and Roshni, Julia, Allie, Masami and Maria) taught me and my kids how to take care of and train her. I can’t say enough about how loving, responsive and thoughtful they all were to our beloved Eliot. Over a year later and she is perfectly behaved and well trained. Elizabeth was very patient with us over zoom and Eliot simply loved the in person Play & Train sessions with the other puppies and the staff. I cannot recommend Elizabeth and her team highly enough.

We love the Dog Institute! From the very beginning, we wished our eight-week-old puppy came with a user's manual; virtual training sessions with Elizabeth turned out to be even better than that, starting with the absolute basics and progressing through more advanced skills. Our puppy also loved Play and Train sessions during the week, so much so that she starts jumping for joy anytime we get within a block. We've also left our dog overnight (and longer) at the Dog Institute, and there's no one we'd trust more. They truly care about all of the dogs they look after, and it shows.
