The Fine Canine Dog Training & Boarding

Monica helped out my Border Collie so much through his 10-day boarding training! I got my Border Collie, Louie, from a breeder when he was 6 weeks young. He has been a very energetic and sweet pup from day one. However, my girlfriend and I had some behavioral issues with Louie that we couldn't correct, and I knew that Louie needed some professional training. He had typical puppy issues like biting furniture and people's hands/feet. It got to a point where Louie was acting dominant towards myself and my girlfriend, he never listened, and he would rather bite me than play with a toy. Also, Louie hated being in the car and his crate. He would cry and bark VERY loudly if we ever drove him somewhere or making him sleep in his crate at night. We received a noise complaint through our apartment complex because of Louie's barking in his crate. My girlfriend and I were worried that Louie would never get better. Monica picked Louie up (she offers pickup and drop-off service which is very convenient) when he was 14 weeks, and when she dropped him off after 10-days we were very surprised! She returned the same sweet and energetic boy that we knew before he left, but Louie was very well behaved. I'm writing this review 2 weeks after we got him back, and we're so glad that we sent him away. He no longer bites furniture or humans, he doesn't act dominate towards us anymore, and he listens/trusts us. Also, Louie never cries or barks in the car or in his crate anymore! Monica spent 2 hours with us to teach us all of the commands and how to correct Louie's actions if he doesn't listen. Monica truly cares about the success of the dogs that she trains, and she makes herself available for help even after the boarding school is finished. Louie went to his first Agility class yesterday, and some of the commands that he learned during his training with Monica came in hand. We take Louie all over town now to breweries, stores, and restaurants and we don't have to worry about him acting up. Oh, and she helped Louie land a spot in a commercial! We definitely recommend Monica for any obedience training!

The Fine Canine Dog Training and Boarding School is an absolute must whenever welcoming a new dog into your family. For my experience, my 14 week old German Shepherd Puppy was a great dog, but had trouble listening to me when I called him, going to the bathroom only outside, and crying whenever put into the cage. When I called The Fine Canine, Monica answered and gave me the options for my puppy. She strongly recommended her 10 Day Boarding School, where she takes your dog for 10 days and puts them through a boot camp. By her having the dog, she is able to dedicate large amounts of focus and time on working with your puppy and fixing all the problems that you have encountered. At first, I was concerned that would be too long to stay away from my dog. Monica assured me that it would be totally fine and it would not have an impact on the dog’s mental health. In fact, my dog was so busy learning with her, he didn’t have time to whine. She made it easy, by picking up my puppy from my house. She provided me updates throughout the 10 days on his progress, and even videos doing tricks. While it was hard, I made an effort to not ask for too many updates, because I knew this would distract from her training time with my puppy. At the end of the 10 days, she brought my puppy home. My puppy was like a new dog! She spent over an hour teaching us the new tricks and commands that he had learned. It was almost overwhelmingly how much she was able to teach our puppy. He knew so many commands and would go to his bed whenever we asked him to. He never cries in the crate anymore, (a stark contrast to before). He lets me know if he has to use the bathroom. Walking him is so much easier. He pays attention to me, even if there’s 5 other dogs around him. In my experience, this is very rare for a 17 week old puppy! After the Boarding School, I feel like it is imperative to put your puppy through dog training with Monica. I can confidently say it was the best choice I made for my puppy.

I highly recommend Fine Canine School of Dog Training for training and boarding. Our 6 month-old lab puppy currently attends Fine Canine obedience classes, and we recently boarded him with Monica (the owner) while we were on vacation. She continued his obedience training during this boarding session. Monica is fantastic. She is knowledgeable, professional, and clearly loves what she does. We appreciate the positive reinforcement techniques she uses for training. She even sent us videos of his training progress while we were on vacation. Once our pup arrived back home, Monica worked with us to demonstrate the new skills he had learned. We will definitely use Fine Canine in the future!

The Fine Canine dog training is the best. I had a 10 day obedience training for my 8 months old Toy Poodle, Paris, and Monica the trainer, is so amazing. She did everything she could to teach my baby. I really recommend the services they offer, and also worth the money and affordable. Paris loved Monica, her kids too helped with training my baby and everything turned out so well! Don't look elsewhere she is the best, and she will call you and will make sure to let you know what's going on. She get's busy at times but I understand when she can't reply ASAP. But overall it is a 5 star for me. ( This is way long overdue ) But Thanks again Monica. I posted a photo of my dog, Paris, she is the brown poodle on the front far left.
