What an excellent class! Our 2yo Husky went through the Basic course and made a lot of progress. Thank you for all of the dedicated instruction!

We had a fantastic experience with this dog training class! The trainer was knowledgeable, patient, and did a great job explaining not only what to do, but why it works. Our dog made noticeable progress throughout the class, and we left with practical skills we can continue working on at home.

I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Amber! Our 8 month old Great Dane, Frank, went to her for board & train, and I was definitely nervous about leaving him. He’s still very much a puppy, but already over 100 pounds, so we knew it was important to get a solid foundation in place while he’s young. From the very beginning, Amber made me feel completely comfortable. She went above and beyond with communication and sent tons of photos and videos throughout his stay, which made being away from him so much easier. I never felt like I was wondering how he was doing or what they were working on. Our biggest goals for Frank were improving his basic commands and, especially, learning how to settle and relax in public. We want to be able to take him along to parks, breweries, patios, and other outings without having a giant puppy who can’t turn his brain off. Amber really understood what we wanted for him and worked on skills that are actually useful in our everyday life. We’re so happy with the progress Frank made and feel like we have a much better foundation to continue working with him at home. You can tell Amber genuinely cares about the dogs she trains, and I’m so grateful for the time, patience, and attention she gave him. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering board & train!

We had Chrissy in The Good Dog Yorktown obedience training since she was a young puppy and loved it. An opportunity came up to experience the Board and Train while we were on vacation, and we jumped at the chance! We knew she would get wonderful care, with training to boot. The training and experience was wonderful! Amber gave Chrissy the manners she needed to be a “Good Dog” in Yorktown!
