Violet went to a couple of bump up days and boot camp for 1 week to work on her basic commands, get pinch collar training and learn to walk without pulling or jumping at other dogs and people. We were extremely impressed and happy with the results! Even after just 1 day we saw a huge difference in her behavior during walks. She would be excited to go in for training every morning and was so tired when we picked her up! We could tell she was hard at work while in “school”. We worked with Jana and Hannah which did an amazing job teaching us how to keep up with the training. All the staff we interacted with is very friendly and professional! We look forward to Violet continuing her training with more bump up days in the future! Highly recommend THR if you are looking for dog training professionals.

Coco had an amazing week at the Board and Train program. He is a completely changed dog and listening to all commands, just awesome, such a life changer for us. Hannah was outstanding with all the training with Coco and her class with me was outstanding. How much Coco liked Hannah was very visible when I went back for the follow up lesson the following week with him jumping and his excitement pee. Overall, I would highly recommend The Happy Retriever. Thank you for helping us with Coco. I am looking forward to next program/lessons.

Our goldendoodle Teddy has completed the puppy program, multiple bump up days and the a pinch collar board and train program. We could not be happier with the results of the training. Our walks, home behavior and Teddy's overall demeanor has been noticeably improved. We couldn't recommend the Happy Retriever enough.

We had a great experience bringing our 8 month old puppy to a week of boot camp! When asking my wife after our first training session “was it worth it”, her response was that it was worth 10x what it cost.

We sent our dog Ellie to the board and train one week class. Prior to that we sent her to many bump up days. I was very nervous leaving her somewhere but she loves it there and I could not be more happy with the progress she made and what she learned and will continue to learn there. All the workers I have met were very friendly and professional. I highly recommend the happy retriever.
