Unprofessional and damaging: Our dog has regressed significantly…read more We enrolled our 3-year-old Pitbull mix in a 4-week Behavior Modification course specifically to address her severe anxiety and confidence issues. Despite a two-hour intake call and my constant check-ins, we discovered three weeks into the program that the staff had no idea why she was there. Instead of the specialized care we paid for, our dog was passed off to an intern for a "one-size-fits-all" obedience program. They used fear-based methods that were entirely inappropriate for an anxious dog. We were looking for confidence building; instead, they broke her spirit. The aftermath is devastating: our dog has regressed so severely that we are now forced to consider rehoming--a position we never thought we'd be in. When we tried to address this, the management was dismissive. We were told by a trainer (not the manager we asked for) that our dog was "manipulating us." As experienced dog owners, we know this is a lazy excuse for poor training. Do not trust this facility with a dog that needs behavioral support.

Private sessions are available for special concerns or problems. "Positive" (reward-based) training techniques are emphasized over force-based techniques. The instructors are patient, certified, and respectful--no one will make fun of you or disparage your choice of dog. When I started here, I had a talented rat terrier, a rescued former stray, that I thought would do well in obedience and rally. They helped me reach those goals with good training advice and encouragement. He now has titles and championships in 3 rally venues and 2 obedience venues. They also helped me grow as a handler, and more! I've just been certified to judge all levels in the obedience venue Companion Dog Sports Program. I'm even helping run competitions now at this facility. But Blue Ridge K-9's major success is in helping people develop good manners in their best friends--and a well-trained dog is a pleasure to have around. They return phone calls promptly and treat every question with the respect you deserve.

Brennan has seen our 14 mos. old hound rescue 3 times now, and the changes are mind boggling…read more yesterday he took my husband and me for a walk with our pup on the rail trail to teach us how to walk him. I anticipated letting my husband do the actual training and just watch, but he made it look so easy that I volunteered to try walking him. wow, to say I was shocked and pleased is an understatement. I will be putting in some steps over the next couple of weeks to reinforce my training, but I already feel confident with what he has taught us. in 3 sessions our dog no longer jumps on us, has played with Brennans dog with no aggression, and was able to walk nicely for an hour with people and even dogs passing us. I guarantee whatever your issue is Brennan can help!
