As a first time dog owner, it has been quite an experience. Slime, my 1 year old Miniature…read moreSchnauzer-Terrier Mix, is a very lovable dog and the Goodest of Boys. However, I knew that I had to get professional help when I realized that I was going to be gone for a few hours, every day, once College began. I love Slime, but he had an extreme case of separation anxiety. I couldn't be in another room or right outside the door without him crying for me. He cried dramatically for hours, despite ensuring that his needs were met (food, water, and potty time). Yes, I know it hurts to have your dog cry for you. If he acted like this while I was still home, imagine how he would have been while I am at school? I took the time to find a reputable, and trustworthy dog trainer. I reached out to James. He explained to me the options of getting my dog trained. I choose to undergo the Board and Room Program, which is about 4 weeks. The 4 weeks flew by, and it was finally time to pick up Slime. I was filled with joy and held back my tears to not only be reunited with my little buddy, but to also see how much growth he has done. I was impressed and proud of the dog that my Slime has become. However, as with most things with life, it is not just a one and done deal, it is a continuous work in progress. James is a miracle worker who understands dogs on a deeper level than most of us could ever understand. I look forward to continuing using James' services in the future. If you truly LOVE your dog, then you must know that the Hardest Decision is the Best Decision to make for them.

I knew going into this training that it was me that needed most of the training! Steve explained that I needed to learn how to communicate with my dogs, that they communicate differently. What an eye-opener! Everything he explained made sense and in just the few hours we spent together, Lana was already following the cues that Steve taught me. Consistency and repetition is key. We are just 2 weeks in and the process is going great! Steve was absolutely terrific to work with. Somehow, he makes the whole process easy and effortless. His follow up calls to check in are much appreciated and he's available for questions that might come up. I'm so glad I made the call and was able to work with Steve.

Steve is THE BEST dog trainer and I highly recommend him.

Working with Beth changed everything for us with our daughter's small dog Tito. Before we found…read moreher, having people come into our home was stressful and honestly a little scary. Tito was so reactive that we had to warn anyone who came over, and we were constantly on edge. Beth stepped in and gave us not just hope, but actual tools that worked. She helped us understand Tito in a way we never had before, and the difference in him -- and in our home -- has been incredible. One thing I really want to emphasize is that almost all of the work we did with Beth happened in our own home and in our daily routines, not at her house. The time we spent at her place was very minimal, and was always very calm and controlled. The real transformation came from Beth teaching us how to communicate with Tito, how to read him, and how to guide him so he could feel safe. She always says dog training is 90% people training, and that was absolutely true for us. She taught us how to be better for him, and that's what made the biggest difference. Now Tito is a completely different dog -- relaxed, friendly, and able to enjoy our home without all the chaos and fear he used to feel. Friends and family can come over again. We can breathe again. And that's because of Beth. She didn't just train our dog; she changed the way we live with him, and we're so grateful for everything she's done for our family.

After my initial conversation with Haley, I was able to successfully work through the separation anxiety and cat reactivity on my own, then had a series of training sessions to address the dog reactivity. Before training, walks with Sophie caused me so much anxiety - we had to stay far away from any dogs to avoid the embarrassing meltdowns. Going on any trails near dogs was out of the question. With training, swapping her collar and lots of practice on our own, we now regularly walk busy trails and beaches and have fun! Sophie can now pass 10-20 dogs on Los Gatos Trail without issues. She prances along with so much more confidence now! I'm very grateful for Haley's help and for being so accommodating with us. Look forward to more training in the near future!

They've been incredibly caring, attentive and professional throughout onboarding and all visits. We've been blown away with their in-home pet sitting services. We have a wary and dog-reactive senior dog, cats (one is deaf), and a bunny. Wolfgang is incredible with all of them, and also treats our home with so much respect in the big and little ways (watering parched plants, tossing garbage in the bins outside, bringing in packages). His visitation notes make us feel so comforted knowing our pets are eating and using the restroom. We always feel guilty leaving them, but I know they're still getting lots of love and attention from an experienced caretaker who also genuinely loves animals. We feel the level of service The Woof Gang provides WELL exceeds our expectations and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to everyone.

During our 3 weeks away, our son was here after work and overnight, but Mark came during the daytime to do feedings and walks. He worked around our schedule, sometimes coming twice during the day. We often have visitors, and our pup is very friendly with everyone, but he has a special love for Mark, as he is always SUPER excited to see him! The Woof Gang is an extremely organized, caring, reasonably priced and trustworthy company. Look no further for pet care in your own home with this top-notch provider. Five stars!

It is not often that I leave 1-star reviews... but when it comes to my dog/puppy, I think leaving…read morethis honest feedback is important, as pets are part of one's family. This review is based on my experience back in Fall 2021. My puppy was 3-4 months at the time... we went to maybe 5 of the training classes and by that point, were so frustrated across the board that we never came back. Reasons for my 1-star review: -HUGE class sizes with 1 trainer. Supposed to be a class for puppies less than 1 year old but that was definitely not the case for many of the dogs. Not only was the trainer not able to give anyone individual attention, but my puppy was unable to handle this level of distractions at this age. The class is one-size-fits-all, no matter how young/old your pet is, maturity, size, behavior. We couldn't even get our dog to focus on us, definitely not able to train any behaviors. Clearly some older dogs were doing much better than ours but they shouldn't have even been in the same class. -Really dirty parking lot where the weekday trainings took place, which was even more concerning because my puppy was not fully vaccinated at this point. They didn't seem to be worried about it, but we were on high alert as this was also the parking lot of a PET STORE. Which meant a lot of feces everywhere and always a risk of disease or virus for puppies. -Training style was very harsh and not positive reinforcement. Did not let us use our harness and forced us to jerk our puppy's collar to get her to listen. That might work for some dogs, but ours was so crazed by all the dogs that she wouldn't even realize she was choking herself. Finally when we showed this to the trainer multiple times, he agreed maybe another tactic would be better for her. -Even worse than training style, EXTREMELY rude and aggressive owner (we're pretty sure it was the owner). It's one thing to coach us, it's another thing to force yourself and your style on us. Due to all the issues above, we started taking our puppy to the training and just standing on the outside - not actually participating in the training but just trying to practice on her focusing on us with all the distractions. For some reason, the owner didn't accept this and cornered us with his dog and tried to force his training tactics on her, which we were actively avoiding and it felt like he was trying to intimidate us. All to say, we didn't return after this. To be fair, I don't blame the trainer - I think he was doing the best with what he was given, but the program needs a serious revamp and the owner needs an attitude adjustment.

I would leave -10 stars if I can. Very bad experience with my puppy sending here for training. The…read moretrainers dog often attacks my puppy and they never seem to care. When first time the trainers dog caught my puppy's ear tight enough for him to get hurt and my puppy cried in pain . They said nothing to their dog nor never put them on leash. After three weeks the trainers dog bit my puppy again this time it was bad enough to hurt with a big pierce in his ear and lot of bleeding. My puppy cried loud and was scared a-lot to come out his father's hands for a very long time. NOW MY QUESTION :- when they cannot train their own dog how can they correct and teach other dogs ?? My advice to all new puppy owners please be aware and dont go here for your puppy training!
