Great people with amazing care and attention to detail. The personal walk through really shows off how quickly they improve. Would highly recommend!
Very good at training dogs,. Take the time to explain everything they are teaching.

Underdog Training has completely changed my life with my dog. They took such incredible care of him, and the results speak for themselves—he is now fully off-leash trained and thriving. The confidence, freedom, and trust I have with him now is something I honestly didn’t think was possible. What makes Underdog truly special is that the support doesn’t stop when training ends. Anytime I need a refresher, advice, or a little extra guidance, they are there for me. I never feel like I’m “on my own” after graduation. They genuinely care about the dogs and the humans, and it shows in every interaction. If you’re on the fence about training, don’t be. This is one of the best investments you can make for your dog—and yourself.

We took our two dogs here last year for some behavior issues. After a few months of training and reinforcement at home, they are so much more well behaved. Our shy dog even became more confident after the training. This year they honored their lifetime guarantee and had our one dog come back for more training on a new issue that recently surfaced. We have even started to take them for grooming and it is another excellent experience. Can’t say enough about this place and the guys that own it and work there.
