    Might be a good dog trainer but their business acumen is significantly lacking. Extremely slow to…read morerespond to emails, if they (she) decides to respond at all - despite posting on their website that COMMUNICATION is part of their overarching philosophy Also, said they (she) will refund money and has yet despite her writing in an email - "l would be happy to offer you a partial refund now", that was five days ago, no refund yet and now she's not responding to emails. Definitely will not recommend. Noticed a review stated something similar: https://www.complaintsboard.com/cultured-canines-poor-business-practice-unethical-behaviour-c820114

    We have a baby husky, a mini husky and boy is he a little rogue dog. He was only 7 weeks when we…read moregot him, which can create a few problems when training. They aren't supposed to leave the mother until a full 8 weeks. Anyways, I am not sure if you know what huskies can be like but they are VERY,VERY, VERY independent, free spirited dogs. He just LOVED Beth's course. What a treat for him to run around with 20 other dogs in a programmed, strong, active environment. I am not sure what the other weirdo on Yelp is referring to when they say abusive jerking on leashes or whatever, but that is totally not true. Besides, you are the one controlling your dog, and if you start abusing your dog, that is your own problem. Beth doesn't advocate any negative energy at all. In fact, it is specified in one of the lessons to never use negative energy or the dog may resent you. Also mentioned was to actively play with your dog so that they don't resent you. ALL of the teachings were to keep the dog well behaved, with positive reinforcement. When a puppy doesn't sit, Beth says, "Gently pull down on the collar to emphasize the direction you want the puppy to go." When the puppy tries to run off in their own direction, she emphasizes to keep them closer to you, and use your body as a blocking tool to stop the dog from passing you so he/she knows where you expect them to be. There is no yanking, bashing or any of that going on there and I found it quite offensive to see people saying these kinds of things when they are totally untrue. The classes are focused on emphasizing POSITIVE reinforcement without treats, without negative energy. Shoulder rubs, head pats, and lower back scratches are utilized. Not discipline or negative energy. Our puppy Romeo just loved this. He sits, jumps, lays down (very hard for him to do) and even comes, (for the most part). For a husky, the command to come is literally the MOST impossible command to teach them. We have our struggles with rabbits still, but Cultured Canines is the place to go if you need to train a puppy. At one point Beth had Romeo running beside me without a leash without him running off which was very impressive for me since he never does that. He always bolts off to jump on another dog! On top of it all, the cost is very economical, and after you complete the 20 or 25 classes for around $500-600 bucks, you can actually bring him back for another year for free to keep him socialized, healthy, and reinforce the training. Highly recommend this as a start for training. The homework is up to you!

    Hi there. Our journey with Holly at Happy dawg obedience training started in Febuary of 2016. Our…read morejourney has been filled with ups and downs. We started our training and education well before we brought our puppy home. Holly has been understanding and informative and what a great teacher she is. Our family puts holly on a golden pedestal, a little over the top, to some maybe be to us, no. She will tell you she wants to create balance one dog at a time and that she does. I can sit here all day and rave till the cows come home. Training a dog comes with a ton of work and effort, Holly has shown us how to create balance with our dog Lacey. LACEY IS being trained for support work, her genuine caring personality and love for dogs has brought us here. We have got where We are with Lacey because of her dedication. Holly thank you for never giving up on us. We would never look at another trainer. This woman can not,and will not be replaced. Tanya, Matt, Jacob and Lacey Little.

    From the owner: I help dogs and their owners learn how to create and strengthen bonds of trust and respect with…read moreeach other. To achieve this, I use a balanced, compassionate, common-sense approach to help change unwanted behaviors and encourage and reinforce good behavior. I believe that unwanted behaviors are the outcome of a problem, so I work with you and and your dog to first find the root cause of the issue, and then, work on changing it. Only addressing the outcome instead of the cause is like putting a small band-aid on a huge, open gash and expecting it not to bleed. From obedience basics to unwanted behaviors - e.g. leash pulling, excessive barking, jumping up, etc. - I work very closely with owners to help them build and/or restore strong, life-long bonds of mutual trust, respect, and loyalty with their dogs. And though our scheduled time together - e.g. basic obedience course - comes to an end, I am there for owners and their dogs for the rest of their dog's life.

    I have two rescue dogs and through the rescue agency (ARF) I found out about Dogma. We've done two…read moreclasses for our first dog and one for the second and I only have good things to say. The instructors are great and its cool that they have a training program to teach their style of training to other trainers. They offer classes on everything from basic puppy obedience to classes for reactive dogs. There are even park etiquette classes! Both our dogs have really learned better manners because of Megan and her crew at Dogma. While we personally haven't attended their daycare just yet our second dog did attend before we adopted her and her foster mom had great things to say about it. I would totally recommend Dogma to dog owners-even if your dog is a bit older they could still learn a lot from these people :)

Unfortunately their experience was met with continual requests for extra money, upfront, for classes the staff claimed were necessary for their dog to be cared for. They described behaviour related to crate training that my parents had not seen any sign of at home, making them wonder what was going on. Lastly the dog would often behave strangely after being picked up and remain in a funk of sorts for a day or so. The staff were confrontational, claiming they could not handle my parents' dog. Finally after asking about an unrelated behaviour question (teaching dogs to not jump up on people), my parents were told that there was a class offered and that they would (suddenly) be required to take it. On the spot, refusing to take that class would result in the dog being refused access to the facility. Obviously they refused and will be taking their business and their pup elsewhere. Steer clear if you value or your wallet and your furry friend.
