Our golden retriever had terrible behavior from the moment she was a puppy. She scratched, bit, barked, scratched, jumped, and couldn’t settle down to save her life. I spent hours training everyday, but as soon as she saw me with no treats, the bad behavior would start all over again. One day I was at…

Katie (my 8 month old golden retriever) and I entered training right after Labor Day 2018. Katie was trained for 15 days, plus a couple of private lessons, a couple of group lessons, and a trip to our house in. Your staff did an excellent job training her and i appreciate all the time and effort they put forth. Katie did very well until we started traveling to California and other places. We both got off track a bit.
I would just like to thank you and your staff for scheduling Katie and I to have a tune-up session for 3 days. This will get us both back on track. I am very impressed with your staff. They are knowledgeable, competent, and very patient especially with me. I also realize that I have to do my part for the training process to be successful. Your program was highly recommended to me, and I can vouch for that and will recommend it to others.
Thanks again for your caring staff!
