When I first got my precious Pomeranian puppy, I thought I could train him myself... I was wrong! He was adorable but incorrigible. I interviewed several trainers and they were all nice, but I immediately felt a connection to Ms. Eva (the owner of Wigglebutts) and knew that she would treat my little baby as if he was her own. We arranged for a "board and train" for a few weeks while I was out of town. Me. Eva made sure I came out for a visit with my doggy on another day before I left him with her so we all knew each other and he wouldn't get scared being left at a strange place with a strange person. I missed him so much and I really appreciated that Ms. Eva took frequent videos and pictures of him and texted me updates and even patiently took all of my calls so I never worried! She did an AMAZING job! She has a little "school house" on her property where she individually takes your pet to work with them which I think is a genius idea. He learned several commands including sit, stay, quiet, fetch, and conquered his potty training. All with loving guidance only! I left with instructions on how to keep training, a video of his best tricks and we had a little graduation. Ms. Eva treats you and your pet not like customers but like family! 5 stars are not enough!!!

Eva worked so well with him at 10 weeks old and he came home knowing all the basic commands and not crying in the crate. I needed to know how to appropriately communicate with him so that I could properly praise and discipline him. We learned clicker training and treats for good behavior. I even have taught Buddha more tricks since taking him home. He was a good boy when we first got him, but now he is a GREAT boy. Highly recommend Miss Eva and her 2 week program!

It was getting so out of hand that it was impacting our experience with him as our pet. We found Macayla at Unleash Fido in Jacksonville. We enrolled Taz in their 4/5 weeks obedience training and OMG we legit have a brand new dog!! He is more calm, settled, obedient and has really responded positively to this new training and rules. The entire team at Unleash Fido have been very helpful, professional and kind. Our trainer Macayla has checked in with us frequently to see how things are going, answering questions and has provided several post training sessions to ensure we are comfortable and continuing his training. I have had to reach out to her regarding some new undesirable behaviors and she made some suggestions that really worked and has been so incredibly helpful. Worth every penny. I would highly recommend them for any dog training needs!

Bringing my puppy, Ellie, to Unleash Fido was the best decision I could ever make. Before bringing…read moreEllie to Unleash Fido for training she was crazy! She would greet everyone who came to my place with a lovely leap to their face while they were sitting on the couch. She would dig on my couch and did not listen well. Now she is a brand-new puppy. She does not go on my couch or jump on anyone. She seems more confident in herself and calm. Macayla did an amazing job with her, and I am beyond grateful! I enrolled Ellie in their 4/5 weeks training. I got a report card and pictures or videos every Wednesday. I always looked forward to Wednesdays! After Ellie completed her training, we had to go back for our follow up trainings with Macayla. Ellie was beyond excited every time we went back. I have already recommended Unleash Fido to multiple friends. Highly recommend Unleash Fido!

My…read morepack includes David, a 13-year-old Shih Tzu mix; Zoey, an 8-year-old Doberman; and Alice, a 2-year-old Doberman who's been doing service dog training with Devon. Not only has Devon helped Alice with her specialized training, but they've also worked with Zoey and David on refresher lessons and day-to-day living strategies to make managing three very different dogs much easier. Devon's approach is amazing--they adjust their training methods to align with what I'm comfortable with, creating a collaborative and supportive experience. It's never about right or wrong; it's about finding what works best for you and your dog. We've done in-person lessons and board-and-trains, and every time, Alice comes home better than when she left. Alice adores Devon, and knowing she's happy and in such capable hands makes all the difference. Devon is easy to communicate with, incredibly knowledgeable, and truly cares about the well-being of every dog they work with. I can't recommend them enough

I wasn't sure how he would do woth other animals but Devon immediately assured me that they would be able to handle Kapano in their house for his boarding! I was impressed as he came back more confident and mannered around other dogs. I was consistently sent updates and photos of him throughout his stay and made to feel more than welcome to visit. He also came back to me in better shape in terms of muscle! If there was anything Devon had questions about they had no issues contacting me right away to let me know or ask about, I felt very comfortable and safe with my dog remaining under Devons care. I had never had to leave my dog with anyone before so i was reasonably worried as he's been my bestfriend for 6 years but i am EXTREMELY satisfied with Devons services and will continue to use devon for any training/boarding related needs for the future. I cannot recommend Arcane Canine enough! And thank you Devon for taking the best care of my boy when I needed it the most you are amazing!
