We turned to My Clever Canine out of desperation. Our dog Knox, a pitbull/chocolate lab mix, had…read moresome over excitement and behavior issues that made everyday life stressful--for him and for us. It raised major safety concerns for our older dog and toddler. He wasn't aggressive, but he was failing behavioral assessment for rehoming. We interviewed several board and train programs, but Amy at My Clever Canine stood out from the rest. She didn't sugarcoat anything. She was honest, realistic, and upfront about what to expect--and what might not be possible. That honesty gave me confidence we were making the right decision. Knox was never a bad dog--he just needed the right person to help him understand all his emotions and where to put them. And the program (specifically his trainer Rochelle) did exactly that. Today, Knox is a completely different dog. He's an integrated, joyful, and loving member of our family. We will be forever grateful of Amy and Rochelle!

I sent my dog, Milot 4.5 months, to Powerhouse K9 for a three-week board-and-train program. As a…read morenew dog owner, I'll admit the process felt a bit unconventional, and I decided to wait a few days after she returned home to write this review so I could evaluate the results objectively. Now that we are home, I am incredibly pleased with the outcome. Milot's behavior has shifted significantly for the better. Anthony spent two hours with me during pickup to ensure I understood the commands and techniques he used, and by implementing those daily, I've seen a massive difference in our routine. While the 'behind-the-scenes' of intensive training can feel a bit like a black box for a first-time owner, the results speak for themselves. If you are looking for a program that delivers a noticeable transformation, it is well worth the investment. I'm very happy with Milot's progress! Other things to note - Anthony was very responsive. Sent videos of progress and video chats as well - clean/brushed/bathe at least once before pickup - flexible with drop off and pickup Happy with the result. Highly recommend.

After working together for so long, Garnet's trust in me has developed to the point where we frequently get compliments from strangers on his focus and behavior. I can even walk closely next to well behaved dogs now without worry. So many of Juniper's recommendations have been woven into my life with Garnet and changed how I work with him and handle him in many ways. There are some things we still won't do (dog parks, off leash crowded hikes) but Garnet's life is so much richer than I would have envisioned it when we first started training sessions when he was 1.5 years old.

I recently had several sessions with Juniper to address some issues with my 4-year-old yellow lab,…read moremainly reactivity towards other dogs while on leash. We had a great experience. I went into it feeling self-conscious about my lack of knowledge, ashamed at the behaviors that my dog had developed, and not sure that consulting a trainer would make a difference for us. As it turns out, I didn't need to worry about any of that. In addition to being very knowledgeable, Juniper is kind, understanding, patient, encouraging, and always positive. She has given us tons of new resources and is always willing to answer questions. More than anything, our sessions were about training me to be able to read my dog's behavior, and being able to react appropriately and employ the right techniques. Juniper set realistic expectations for our sessions, and I came away from the experience with a whole new set of tools and the ability and confidence to continue working with my dog on my own. We are finally making real progress, and my bond with my dog has greatly improved. I highly recommend Juniper, especially if you are feeling lost and unsure about working with a trainer. She will get you going in the right direction.

***Highly recommended especially when you have Big Dogs***…read more Alan's Canine Training was the second trainer we went with after our first one was more suited for littler dogs. After our first lesson with Alan, we noticed our German Shepherd, Ryan, more responsive and obedient at home. Now Ryan has graduated to going to Alan's Daycare. Ryan now looks forward to going to his training and daycare. When Alan was out of commission, it seem like Ryan was depressed he wasn't going. Even Karen makes setting up appointments very easy and is very flexible with Daycare. The staff is very friendly and great. Ryan loves greeting them upon arrival. I would highly recommend Alan's Canine Training especially if you have larger breeds of dogs. I'm sure he's great with little ones too. I'm just disappointed that we didn't used him earlier when Ryan was a puppy.

We went with our rescue adult Dogo who is very stubborn. Lisa showed me how to communicate with our dog, her feedback is direct and honest and if you listen and practice, you will see amazing and fast results. The benefit of the group is that you get to see her show the commands multiple times with different dogs, all of them reacting differently. Her first session around nutrition, crate training, potty training is so eye opening, and informative, I have referred to it many times since. Lisa will answer texts, calls and will do anything to get you and your dog on a successful path. And if you are lucky enough to see her with her dogs, you will see the art of the possible!
