Our 3 year old Maltese/Shitzhu dog Toby thought he was the boss of the house. Ok he WAS the boss of…read morethe house. He was very territorial with other dogs, did not listen to commands, took us on walks instead of the other way around. We were getting very frustrated with his behavior and we didn't know how to fix it. We reached out to Jasmine for a meet and greet and she helped come up with a plan to help. Jasmine was amazing, she immediately was able to recognize Toby's personality and helped us understand why he was doing the things he was doing. Jasmine was patient and explained everything so that we understood exactly what we needed to do. After the first training session we saw results. We did our best to follow what we were taught and it worked. Toby is now obeying commands, staying in place, walking on and off a leash. Toby's behavior is night and day different. He is more affectionate with us and is a much happier dog. We are so grateful that we found Jasmine at Redemption Dog Training.

Even after the first day we went from my dog nipping and barking at the trainer to seeing my dog relax and understand how to calm down. He was able to be next to other dogs and even have the trainer pet him. By the end of the training my dog was able to be around strangers and not feel the need to bolt after them. Was able to follow commands and focus his energy into keeping commands without breaking because of distractions. My dog still isn't perfect. But from where we came from it is a huge improvement and it's something I can manage and work with. Amazing Results. Completely recommend them to anyone.

But I have nothing but GLOWING things to say about this place. It feels way nicer than some other offices we've gone to, with cute decor, and very clean floors--which is really appreciated. The staff is beyond nice. They answer all your questions and take concerns seriously, even when you're worried it might be nothing and you're overreacting. They're completely understanding and love your pets like their own. They offer treats to all the good girls and boys and our favorite is the little fridge they have in the lobby where you can make your own pup cup. So thoughtful! We couldn't be happier with our experience here. Thanks to all the staff for being amazing!

I tried calling them again today sep 24th to schedule another appointment and they told me that they're very busy and it would cost 65$ more to drop him off Monday, so the same uninformed doctor could check him out and operate on him without me being able to be there, I have to drop him off like an iPhone to get repaired and then pay for labor at the end of the day, what an absolute JOKE!!!!!

We've been training with Hayden from Be Kind Canine for 5 weeks now, and honestly--it's been…read moreincredible watching our stubborn, sassy, anxiety-ridden 1-year-old mini schnauzer transform into a confident, obedient, and responsive little rockstar. Before Hayden, we had to chase her around just to get her leash on. Walks were chaos. She barked at everyone and everything, and I was constantly terrified she'd bolt if the front door opened. The idea of taking her into a store? Absolutely not. Fast-forward just a few weeks, and she now comes when called, walks calmly, and genuinely seems happy and proud of herself. We've even taken her into Cabela's and Scheels--no barking, no pulling, nothing! And the fact that we were able to take her trick-or-treating and on hikes without a single issue still blows my mind. I thought that kind of progress would take months... yet it's only been five 30-minute lessons. You can't make this up. This dog mom is thrilled! And not just with our pup's progress--Hayden himself is fantastic. He's got this rare mix of calm confidence and deep expertise that makes every session click. He explains everything in short, digestible steps that actually stick (for both dogs and humans ). He's also been incredibly flexible with our schedule and super responsive whenever we've had questions or needed reassurance between lessons--something that meant a lot to us when investing in high-level training. Even after the first two sessions, the difference was so dramatic we joked we'd have been happy if it ended there. But now, five weeks in, I can't even imagine where Clementine will be in another month--the transformation has been unreal. Hayden genuinely cares--not just about the dogs, but about the owners too. As someone who struggles with anxiety, I can't overstate how much I appreciate his patient, kind, and professional energy. He's funny, easy to talk to, and somehow makes training feel like hanging out with a friend who's also a total dog-whispering genius. We call him "Professor Hayden" in our house, and it's well deserved. Our lives (and our pup's) have truly changed because of him. If you're on the fence or still shopping around--stop. Go with your gut. Be Kind Canine is worth every second and every penny. Our family and neighbors are blown away by Clementine's transformation. If you've got a schnauzer, you know they can be stubborn--but Hayden has officially proved that theory wrong.

They have given us back our life. At the end of March,…read morewe adopted a rescue Pitt mix. The shelter let us know that he was a one-animal home, but we left feeling confident that training could help that. Three months later and $400 spent on PetCo training, we found that DS/CC dog training was not cutting it. Our dog sent my hunny and the cat to the hospital. They said the cat was lucky to be alive. After that, I saw an ad on Facebook for Be the Boss Dog training. We were looking for something less treats based and their philosophy seemed to line up with ours, so we reached out and scheduled a time to meet. Sidney Faden, the co-founder, invited us into his home, answered all of our questions, then handled our dog for a quick temperament assessment. He considered our personalities and the needs of our dog and used that to choose our trainers. We had to wait 2-3 weeks for the first appointment, but we didn't leave empty handed! He gave us the option to purchase an e-collar, showed us how to use it, and invited us to feel what our dog would feel. We left with a slip lead leash and a lot of hope. The collar came in the mail a week later. Part of our conversation was goal setting and setting expectations. We were charged for the services we needed. The payment was expected upfront, which was a lot, but they partner with Affirm, so we were able to pick a payment plan that worked for us. Included for everyone is a lifetime membership to the app and twice monthly group training sessions (Pack walks). Once a month, we have the opportunity to hop on a Zoom training call and participate in the group session that is too far for us to travel. We are able to text our trainers whenever and they answer within a few hours. They take photos and videos for us so we can see how far our dog has come, and so that we can analyze the play-by-play like football coaches do. Our dog has so far finished 3 training sessions and maybe 4 pack walks. We had to take a break in between because the pup needed a tooth pulled. The trainers are so well educated in their field! They were able to identify and explain how the dental pain was affecting our dog, reflecting back on even when we didn't know he was in pain! They remember us and greet our dog by name. They are patient and firm. They have the better interest of our dog front and center, which included telling us he wasn't ready for the next step because we did not hold up our end of the bargain! (We did not do enough of the preparatory training to be ready for the planned lesson.) Today our dog was able to lay on the ground surrounded by other dogs at the pack walk. There were maybe 10 dogs within lunging distance, but he stayed calm. That wasn't possible even a month ago. The cat can enter the same room as the dog now. We have the flow of traffic back in our small home. There is hope that we don't have to send the dog back to the shelter. Bethany, the founder, believes in a "train the trainer, trust the dog" approach. We see her at almost every pack walk. The only one she missed was the one where is rained and almost no one came! Anyway, her philosophy on the outside looks like a bubbly person. On the inside, she has a mental health-centered mindset. She uses therapy language and recognizes that a lot of dog problems are actually people problems being blamed on (or manifesting in) the dog. I love her approach. Anyone who has seen a "where are they now" with past clients of Cesar Milan knows that if the person doesn't change, the training is wasted and the dog reverts back to old behaviors. Later this week we have our next session where the dog works on his public access skills. This is towards his Advanced Obedience Training Certificate. I look forward to my continued participation and getting to see the personality of who my pup can be when he isn't controlled by fear and instinct.

This program was a complete waste of time and money. I truly regret signing up. If you're…read moreconsidering it, save yourself the trouble--it's not worth it. The communication was poor; they only seemed interested in reaching out when payment was due. The owner came across as overly cheerful and unprofessional rather than acting like a serious dog trainer. There was one trainer who seemed experienced and disciplined, but you don't get to choose who you work with. Instead, we were assigned someone who had to drive two hours to reach us, even though we were told there were trainers nearby. None of this was explained beforehand. The sessions were all more than an hour away, and we were never informed about that either. The company should have been upfront about their limited resources and suggested finding a trainer closer to home. It felt dishonest and disorganized. After spending nearly $3,000, my dog still struggles with basic potty training and only listens when wearing the e-collar. Everything they taught could have been learned for free on YouTube. I would like at least half my money back because this experience was truly disappointing.
