If you're in search of training for your dog then look no further. I reached out to Scruffy Fluffies based on the positive Yelp reviews and Victoria responded very quickly for a consultation. Based on my interaction with her I booked right away. She arrived promptly on our scheduled meeting day right at our home and she took all the precautions due to COVID so we felt very safe. We especially liked the one on one attention and time working in our every day environment to get a better handle on some of the challenges we were facing. Having had a couple of sessions now we can confidently say that we are completely satisfied. Scruffy Fluffies offers various packages including a 4 session package starting at $340. This is by far the best value compared to others we found. Based on our experience we will more than likely add more sessions. It is truly amazing how great it feels having your dog respond positively and quickly to the training. Don't hesitate, reach out to Scruffy Fluffies!

She's very reliable, resourceful, and most importantly knowledgeable when it comes to dogs. She's the dog whisperer. My puppy Victory literally worships the ground Victoria walks on. If you are serious about having your dog trained well hire Victoria. If you're a first time dog owner, buy 12 sessions. We've come a long way from where we started. Victory and I went from the puppy struggles of her crying relentlessly in her crate to me now being able to be in the same room while she's in her crate and not crying. The struggles of leash training to now being able to eat out on the patio at restaurants. Investing in your dogs training is so important. I promise you you won't be disappointed by hiring Victoria as your dog trainer.

We were unsure which program to choose but went with the off-leash program, and it was the best decision. Mack went from a high-energy puppy who struggled with listening, jumping, and leash pulling to a well-mannered, confident dog. With a one-year-old at home, having hands-free control over our large dog has been life-changing. The program's results have been night and day for our family. You can tell Joshua and Kayla truly care for and bond with every dog that comes through their programs, which made us feel so comfortable trusting them with Mack. An added bonus is their boarding option for program graduates, which includes a training refresh. It's a relief knowing we can leave Mack with people we trust while we're away. We can't recommend Joshua, Kayla, and Concierge K-9 Training enough. Their expertise and care have truly transformed our lives--and Mack's!

He was good around other dogs in the home, but as soon as we were in public, he would lung and try to attack other dogs. It was not only stressful, but also embarrassing! I decided to hire Tom for 4 sessions and see if my pup Murphy still needed additional help. I also opted to meet Tom at his property in Renton instead of my home as he owns several large, high performance breeds and I wanted my dog to have exposure to them. I immediately started to notice a change in Murphy after our first visit. Tom offered practical, easy to use tools and commands, and showed me how to consistently implement them. He is an excellent teacher, flexible to work with, and his methods are very effective. He gave me confidence in my abilities to train my dog, and the desire to want to continue with individual training at home and outside the home. Now I have a dog I am very proud of and happy to take with me wherever I go. Murphy is still working on socializing, but I am happy to report we have visited several off leash dog parks, coffee places, Home Depot, and all different trails and walks through our neighborhood. He responds to my commands, and is a much happier dog because of his training. I would highly recommend Tom & TM Dog Training! Thank you Tom!

Andrea has changed the game for us. I have a 1.5 year old field English Setter who is incredibly…read moreprey-driven and generally overexcited outdoors. We came to Andrea with zero outdoor recall and no leash manners whatsoever. A few sessions in and we're already seeing major improvement thanks to Andrea teaching us about whistle training, trying different tools, teaching us commands that work with my dog's (very busy) brain, and making sure we're balancing his physical exercise with mental stimulation. Today at the park, my dog came when called on the whistle every time I called him. Yesterday, we took a 20 minute loose-leash walk... these things was unimaginable two months ago when we first met with her. Andrea is empathetic, patient, realistic and relatable. No shaming here. We have met with three other trainers, two of them insisting that my dog was "too far gone", one refusing to work with him-- not the case with Andrea. She has brought me so much hope and has significantly improved my relationship with my challenging dog. I can't wait to keep working with her to see how much more progress we make.

We reached out to Connie because we were thinking of getting a second dog and wanted to get a "tune up" for Winston before we made that decision. The process to set up the initial meeting was thorough - we filled out an initial form, we talked with someone on the phone and we were provided with material to read before we ever met Connie. We appreciated the documentation as it set reasonable expectations about the process. When Connie came to the house, the first thing she did was ask us about our goals for the training. She's a great listener and really took the time to investigate our situation and ensure she truly understood the issues that we were having. Once she had gotten our story, she explained the root cause of the issues with Winston and educated us on how to better communicate with our dog. There was a lot of useful BarkBusters material that she shared that was specifically relevant to the problems we were having. Once we got past the theory, we did a few different exercises with Winston to put the ideas into practice. We saw an immediate impact with Winston after the first session. We felt more confident once we were equipped with the knowledge and skills to handle the problematic situations. We followed up on the homework that Connie shared and the results only continued to improve in the weeks following our initial visit. When she met us for the second time, she was surprised with how well Winston had responded to training and provided some small feedback about how we can continue to improve. We are over the moon with how much improvement we've seen with Winston and are so happy we worked with Connie! With the lifetime guarantee, we know we can reach out in the future if Winston develops other issues. Working with Connie was worth every penny and we highly recommend that others reach out if they're looking to improve their dog's behavior!

I could hardly walk him down the street, he was so reactive and aggressive. I wasted money on terrible DVDs and expensive private lessons with another trainer that got me nowhere. My dog was unmanageable and I didn't know what to do. I found Laughing Dogs online and contacted Cayce, who was infinitely patient and understanding towards my little terror. In just a few classes, my dog and I were working as a team. We both had such a good time in the classes and I was so impressed by his progress! My dog graduated to the Master's Class and people comment all the time now about how well-behaved he is. I take him everywhere now. We keep going to the Master's Class because it's so fun and I also want to keep his skills on point. I really don't know what I would have done without Laughing Dogs.

I had adopted her from a rescue organization that didn't tell me the whole story about her past which caused her to be leash aggressive and nervous around other dogs. With just 6 weeks of this course, she had come so far, amd Cayce had set us up with a whole host of tips and tricks to work on with her so she could continue to progress after class was over. I only took off one star because one week Cayce wasn't the instructor and it was unfortunately our last class so I wasn't able to chat with her about what our next steps would be. The other trainer was good too, I just wish that I had known she wouldn't be there so that I could have had a last conversation with her!
