We started our adventure with a Doberman Pinsher not fully understanding the level of work and discipline required to control a dog of this size. A little skeptical at the beginning, I gave Tri-canine a shot, but shortly, I was blown away by the amazing results. We did the shine in nine program which is 9 one-on-one lessons where the trainer (Matt) did a fantastic job showing us step by step and very patiently how to walk, sit, stand, heel, leave it and other basic commands. At the same time, we attended the reactivity and confidence classes, bringing a very well rounded program that gave my dog Loki a sense of purpose and reduced anxiety. We are now in the advanced level classes learning new tricks. I do not have enough words to thank the team: Mike, Matt, Danni, Amanda and others I cannot remember their name now (sorry!). If you want a well behaved and confident dog Tri-canine Campus is the place you are looking for. Thanks Mike! Hector Villarreal

My son Greg Woodruff took his dog Koda there for training and is now like night and day different. I would highly recommend their services and it is worth every bit of the cost. His dog is now extremely well trained and is a pleasure to be around.

Strongly recommend! To say staff at Tri Canine Campus are wonderful, loving, passionate and patient isn't what sets them apart. Most people who work with animals are that way. They don't follow a step-by-step guide written by corporate on how to train a dog. They understand each individual dog AND owner need to learn in a way that works for them, on their path, and at their speed. A technique that works for one dog doesn't mean it's going to work on all dogs - even if they are in the same household. Same applies to the owners. TCC has an arsenal of techniques to quickly apply to make training for both dog and owner click. Since they don't follow a step-by-step guide, you only pass and move on when you successfully pass the goals of the course, not because the guide says in 6 weeks you pass regardless of goal success score. The staff know each other's strengths and weaknesses and work in a very collaborative environment. They are all familiar with my dog and me. Not only does this help them continuously grow to stay the best of the best, I am not hesitant to ask any of them for help and they are not hesitant to help me. But wait, there's more! They also offer reactivity classes. We are exposed to different behaviors, sounds, equipment, and actions that happen in the real world so when we are outside the comfort of our home and the Campus, it's not startling. Such as the child running by dragging a toy, it's not for us to chase. Or the people using a walker or crutches are not aliens to protect the family from. Or the music thumping from the car passing by is nothing to be scared of. I'm not done yet!! Pack walks. Brilliant!! It's like the reactivity class but actually in the real world. Locations are mixed up between parks and businesses so you get a variety of the unexpected distractions and interruptions. I honestly don't know how to praise Tri Canine Campus enough.

Tri Canine has worked wonders with my reactive rescue dog Ripley. Both Matt and Mike are excellent trainers. Matt worked with me and Ripley on the basics. He is very patient and all the dogs love him. Not only did he teach Ripley but he taught me too. It was amazing to see Ripley's progress. We worked with Mike in advanced training. He helped me learn to trust Ripley and gave Ripley such confidence. Now I take Ripley on a regular basis to half day dog train. The staff for day train is incredible and so caring. Ripley is getting so socialized that she played with a tiny 12 week old puppy today. This never would have happened without Tri Canine. I would recommend them highly.
