Where do I even start? There's so many things I could say! But to sum it up, we've been working…read morewith Elevated Canine the day we had our Belgian Malinois back in April. We started with them when our Belgian Malinois was 4 months old, we also decided to do the 3-week Board and Train program when Logan, our trainer, recommended it to us. I'm so thankful and truly appreciate Logan's patience, dedication, and willingness to work with both us and our dog. He has been an amazing trainer and has been there to guide us every step of the way. One thing about Logan is that he doesn't just train the dog, he teaches the owners how to properly communicate, build understanding, and explain how training will look when continuing at home. I can confidently say we've learned much as owners and we've seen such a positive difference in our dog, and we're so grateful we found Elevated Canine and Logan. Although there's been some instances in which we arrive a little late, Logan, with the positive spirit that he has, is always so understanding and welcoming. He never makes us down or shuns us- nothing but a great attitude and an eagerness to educate! You can genuinely feel the love and care Logan puts into his job and especially with our Darius. He's always willing to board Darius whenever we need it, especially on the days when I'm busy or working overtime at work, and that means so much to us. Knowing that Darius is somewhere he is loved, cared for, and in good hands gives us so much peace of mind. We're excited to continue working with them and if we could have the opportunity to meet thee great Oscar Mora, we'd want express our gratitude as well as mention how wonderfully he picked and taught his staff. He hired really good people who go above and beyond! May God continue to bless them and his whole foundation. Highly recommend Elevated Canine to anyone looking for someone who genuinely cares about the dogs and the people they work with!

Ruby is a recent graduate of the Puppy school and Beyond the basics programs, and we couldn't be…read moremore grateful for our experience here at Pack Pawsitive! When we started looking for a training program for Ruby last year, she was very dependent, anxious around other dogs, and struggled with listening to commands. Through a friend, we heard about Pack Pawsitive and were impressed with what was being taught here. When we were first introduced to the trainer Harmony, she was very kind and attentive and we knew she would make a difference in Ruby's learning experience. We loved reading through Ruby's report card at the end of each day and seeing what new things she learned! One of the best parts of Pack Pawsitive's programs is the digital resource library where we can refer to handouts and videos that throughly explained how we can continue to train Ruby at home. The in-person training sessions were also especially helpful, and Harmony was very insightful towards our questions and concerns. Seeing Ruby's growth week to week has been extremely rewarding and couldn't have been done without Harmony and the trainers at Pack Pawsitive. Ruby has become much more confident and focused, and has improved so much with socializing with other dogs. She learned new cues like recall, place, leave it, leash manners, and door manners which has made a great difference in our daily routines. With Ruby's newfound skills, we feel much more comfortable introducing her to new environments. Thank you to the team at Pack Pawsitive for providing a safe, caring, and of course positive learning environment for our pup! We're looking forward to solidifying Ruby's learning experience through the Enrichment daycare program.

Emily is equally wonderful--warm, compassionate, and supportive throughout the entire process. They both clearly love what they do, and it shows in every interaction. When I started, my almost 3-year-old pug mix, Fifi, struggled with barking, reactivity, separation anxiety, and had no reliable recall or response to commands. I was feeling overwhelmed, and even being at home had become stressful. While the training journey had its challenges, especially as a first-time dog owner with no prior experience, Chloe and Emily were there to guide and support me every step of the way. Their patience and encouragement gave me the confidence to keep learning alongside Fifi. The one-on-one sessions each week were invaluable, giving me the opportunity to receive real-time feedback in a supportive, judgment-free environment. The improvement in Fifi has been amazing. She's so much calmer, listens to commands, and we can finally take her out without worrying she'll bark at every person we pass. We actually enjoy our walks now, and even life at home is so much more relaxed. I can't thank Chloe and Emily enough for giving me the tools and confidence to help Fifi thrive. Rooted Dog Training exceeded our expectations.

Our struggle: leash pulling, dog reactivity, focus & settling around people. This program taught me how to communicate with my puppy and let go of the worry that I cannot manage my puppy inside or outside my home. 1) The program: very thorough consultation where they listen to your needs and recommend what they feel is best with ZERO judgement and pressure. I went with day training w private lesson due to my work schedule. You get tools needed to replicate the training at home. 2) The trainers: Kind, adaptable, observant and very easy to talk to. There are multiple as well so there is no worry that your pup isn't getting their dedicated training time. 3) The environment: Clean, air conditioned AND smells really nice. They do coat and safety checks on your pup before each session too! The best part is it doesn't end after a few lessons, we get to continue working on skills in group and private sessions as needed, so he gets the exposure I otherwise wouldn't be able to provide by myself. With their help and consistency on my part, I see my pups future staying bright

The difference has been nothing short of incredible. My dog didn't just improve a little, the transformation has been complete. Behaviors that once felt impossible to manage are now consistent and reliable. What really stood out to me was how effective and structured the approach is. It's not just about teaching commands, it's about building communication, trust, and clarity between me and my dog. I feel more confident as an owner, and my dog is more relaxed, focused, and responsive. It's like we finally understand each other. I have so much more confidence to finally take HONRAY places I wouldn't have tried to before. I love the group of trainers at sgv!

Now that I have more time I wanted to finish Bella's training. I reached out to bark busters because Bella had a lot of anxiety and would have non stop barking issues. We have a new baby in the house so all the barking was no fun! I'm telling you, no joke after the first visit with our trainer Justine, I felt as if Bella was a whole new dog! She gives such great advice on how to properly train your dog without food incentives and shock collars! I was so amazed that I started telling a lot of my friends about it! I just finished my second session with Justine today and she was giving me tips and tricks on how to walk Bella without her pulling. By the end of the session I was walking Bella and Bella wasn't walking me! Justine truly cares for me and Bella and is very thoughtful on modifying things that help me the best! It's definitely worth the investment. I couldn't be any more happy and I would definitely recommend Bark Busters, especially with Justine, to everyone and anyone! Enjoy a picture of Bella after our training session today!

If you truly love your dog, then Bark Busters is the best thing you can do for them! We rescued an…read moreAmerican Pit Bull Terrier mix from our local animal shelter during Covid, and immediately fell in love with her. Since then, we have done our best to train her (even hired a dog training company) and while she's been amazing to us, there have been some incidents. We tried to correct her behavior but we had to go beyond just correcting a behavior, we had to know the why. We needed a dog behaviorist. Enter Bark Busters and Justine! From the very first phone conversation with Justine, she told us about a dog's personality (the who) vs. a dog's behavior (the why). Was our dog just naturally an aggressive dog or was our dog showing aggression due to past trauma. After the initial phone call then came the in person assessment in our home, Justine knew our dog's personality was sweet and loving to us; however, due to her being a rescue, her past experiences led to trauma that led to aggressive behaviors towards others in certain situations. Moreover, during that first assessment, she educated us things we had no idea about or thought about with dogs as pets plus what we need to be and do as owners. Justine was and is exactly what we were looking for in understanding our dog and from there building the right relationship with our dog that will keep her and others safe. The business model and curriculum that Bark Busters and Justine have put in place is one of a kind and works from day 1. We have always wanted what is best for our dog and to give her the best life possible, especially because she is a rescue and her breed. Bark Busters and Justine continues to give us the tools in place to build the confidence and trust we have as owners in our dog and our dog has in us as owners. We are forever grateful to Justine and will recommend her and Bark Busters to anyone!

As a first time (serious) dog owner, I had no idea where to start or how to read my dog. With Torrie's knowledge, she helped me understand her behavior and how to motivate her.
