FirstBarkDennis and staff at The Dog Knowledge are fantastic! My dog Lars is back home and I am beyond happy with the training he received for the past 4 weeks. I highly recommend them to anyone needing dog training.

The Dog Knowledge is true to their name. My 18-month-old King Charles Cavalier Spaniel returned home after his 4-week training with so much confidence and maturity. It was like a son or daughter returning from college exhibiting tremendous personal growth. My puppy aspires to be a therapy dog in an acute care hospital setting. He is well on his way to achieving that dream.

I took my Mia four years ago. I still regret and have nightmares when think about this place. I did not know at that time, I was new to dogs, they kept my baby in a hot sun in NC, you know how hot it gets in summer. She developed fearful of water and large people and other dogs after that. Definitely she had a bad experience. She can’t talk. I would never know what she went through. I feel so guilty what I had put her through. Very to get, but can’t. I wish them well. But should also treat dogs well. Dogs may learn some commmds, but at what cost?

My boy, Maxx was very reactive around other dogs. So, I brought him to The Dog Knowledge for the four week training course. I am amazed at how well he behaves, now that he understands the roles and expectations for his behavior. I also took advantage of their at home, training session the week afterwards with Dennis… And having those real life experiences in his environment, where there are a lot of other dogs in my neighborhood was very helpful for both he and I. I definitely recommend taking your dog to the facility for training as they really work with them, as well as with the owner to make our outings, more enjoyable, for both of us!
The Dog Knowledge was highly recommended to me for my dog, Mojo. Their care and training came a long way towards training and socializing Mojo. I especially like that The Dog Knowledge do not use shock collars or fear ion their training. I plan on taking any dogs I get to them for training.
