Rick clearly has a special gift, and an incredible heart for dogs. The things he teaches are easy to learn and understand.

He was trained for not only diabetic alert but also for PTSD and anxiety and has done a phenomenal job. Without Nancy and Terry, there is no way I could have gotten a dog as amazing as Buddy, no matter what program or trainer I chose. These two train amazing dogs and I am forever grateful for them. We're now two years in together and Buddy has saved my life more than once. I'm so happy to have Buddy and can't imagine what my life would be like without him.

Beth is amazing! She has been a godsend to me. I adopted a standard poodle, Teddy, last year and…read morenot long after it became clear that he had experienced abuse/neglect and because of his history was reactive to other dogs and strangers. The first four months of Teddy's training was ALL about rehabilitation and healing because it wouldn't make any sense if he could sit all pretty but then if something were to happen freak out. Now that he has gotten to a point where the things that use to freak him out are just like "oh yeah...ok..well what do you want me to do?" he has started to get to do all the "normal dog" things like learning tricks and agility. It has been amazing to see him heal and become more confident and trusting. Teddy still has room for improvement but without Beth's guidance and training I know for a fact that Teddy would not be where he is now. In my opinion you will not find a better trainer in this area than Beth. I love DogJoy and could not sing higher praises about it.

COMPLETELY HONEST REVIEW!!!! If you are contemplating which dog school to take your furry baby to…read more STOP! You have found the place! The owner of Buddy's place is very passionate about what she does. She really cares about each dog and their owner. She is very knowledgeable and always willing to answer any questions. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful person in our furry baby's life! If you still have doubts, let me put it to you this way. Our puppy is a Husky. Their reputation proceeds them for being mischievous, stubborn, and un-trainable. Well Sarah did the impossible. Our Husky is one of the best dogs out there. She has achieved 2 AKC certifications and she keeps learning. YOU MUST GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will recommend Sarah time and time again. We have been through another local group class with our…read morepup and it was great, but his good behavior in class did not always translate into good behavior at home. Because the majority of Sarah's training services are provided in her home, this has helped the training really stick for our dog. Also, since Sarah has her own dogs at home, she was in the unique position to be able to help observe and correct our pup's inappropriate play while teaching him proper boundaries, which was our main concern when seeking individual training. Regular field trip outings also allowed the chance for him to practice his skills in public, which has been a real confidence booster for him. Originally, I was a bit taken aback by the prices listed on her website, but in the end, it was worth every penny. The one-on-one training she did with him has worked wonders, and we loved the idea of him getting to hang with her and her family (dogs and humans) when he wasn't learning. We plan to continue using Sarah's doggie daycare and boarding services.

I don't have anything to compare them against, so I'm rating against my ideal…read more Though there were 6 or 7 owners represented at the first class, without dogs, there were no more than 5 at any other class, and most had 3-4. That was a good number for a basic beginning class, when the dogs aren't yet used to other dogs. I didn't get a sense there is a lot of thought given to questions such as "what if my dog doesn't respond to this?" and there was more effort than I'd have liked on controlling behaviors my dog doesn't show. But it's a basic class; I guess these are the first steps. The instructor was good at answering questions, but pretty superficially. I'm very disappointed in how they handle paperwork. They lost an important document -- I had not realized I'd have to *leave* it there, so I brought my only copy of my proof-of-adoption from the humane society. It's gone now, and their response is "oh, you can probably get another". I also discovered after I paid for the class that the adoption came with a 30% discount coupon. That was the reason for leaving the adoption paperwork - to prove eligibility. They're willing to refund, but through PayPal, which I don't use. Still waiting to hear if I have options, and now I have to make another trip to the humane society to see if I can get a copy of the paperwork.

I typically don't post reviews about businesses and I'm hoping we just caught them on a bad day,…read morebut I am very concerned about the integrity of the employees we were with today. 1. They asked if my german shepherd had labored breathing at home and my husband and I said no. He never has. The female trainer said he had all this week with them. When the male trainer brought him in, my dog was literally choking on the slip knot around his neck in front of two trainers, my kids, and myself and husband. We told them he is choking and they denied it. I went to my dog and released the slip knot from around his neck and he quit the labored breathing thereafter. They continued to deny that he was choking. Y'all, I'm a doctor and my bf is a vet. I'm not stupid. The lack of accountability and even a basic apology was alarming. 2. Prior to him starting at SMS, I told the young lady during our consultation that he could already do sit, stay, and come. This week, the trainers taught him sit and place. So, he learned nothing really. 3. I was told that they use a vibration collar that just gets his attention. I straight up asked if it was a shock collar and was straight up told no. It's definitely a shock collar. 4. A random employee walks into the training room and is sitting behind a desk area. She literally looks me dead in the eye and asks me if he is a full blood German Shepherd, which I confirmed. Then she busts out with, " I have often thought about stealing him and taking him home with me" in front of my kids, my husband, and the other two trainers. I just look at her and go back to petting my dog. Then a few minutes later she says it again. No smile. No jk. Just creepy. 5. In good faith I paid in full for both of my dogs to train with this team. After today, my husband called and stated that since Snicker was getting choked, the lady threatened to steal our dog, etc...we no longer feel comfortable with the facility and asked if we could get a refund on the unused portion of our packages. The trainer said no. Ok, well please have your GM contact me. We have not received any contact from management. I did receive two phone calls from the staff. The first was them searching through my dog's file looking for where our dog was having labored breathing at home??? HE NEVER HAS. He couldn't breathe because they chose to use a slip knot noose type rope around his throat instead of just clipping his leash unto his collar which has been on his neck all week. Then, said lady calls me wanting to explain the "comment" about my dog. She won't tell me her name and told us she never said that she had thought about STEALING my dog, etc... Y'all. This is classic denial/gaslighted. I don't even care if they get on Google and make up some craziness about me at this point. I care about honesty. I care about animals. I care about people. I care about doing the right thing. Please be cautious about this facility. In my experience, they will lie to make a sell and then try to cover up their mistakes. Had they just apologized for choking my dog or admitted truth about what was said to us about shock collars, the lady's stealing comments, etc...I would definitely feel differently.

We love Lone Star Dog Training. Travis is a fantastic trainer. Our pitbull Rosie arrived in…read moreour garage in July hot, emaciated, and starving. We initially thought we'd foster her for adoption due to her dog aggression issues. After working with Travis, we decided togive Rosie a forever home ourselves. We brought Travis in to privately train her so she didn't have to deal with the stress of a group setting and because we wanted a tailored training program. With Lone Star Dog Training, we received an excellent job. Travis educated us about how training is important and what results he felt we could see. Over the course of 4 months, Rosie went from being aggressive toward our other dogs to feeling safe and comfortable with them. She's even adopted our 12 year old border terrier as her sister. Rosie has progressed from a frightened stray who did not wag her tail or understand how to take affection, to bounding and leaping with joy when she sees her people. She now seeks out our affections and looks forward to spending time with us. If not for Lone Star Dog Training, we would not have decided to keep her. It showed us what a wonderful, fun and loving dog Rosie is. Thank you, Travis , for your dedication and patience with us.
