She provides detailed handouts on how to work with your dog at home. Our 5 month old golden retriever took to the lessons quickly and had a blast learning in class and at home. We are all much happier as a result of taking our first class and just signed up for our second. Word of caution, if you are not serious about coming to class prepared and putting in the time with your dog outside of class to learn the skills, this class will not be for you. However, if you're willing to spend an hour a week in class and train your dog at home (which is fun and good bonding), this class will be a huge benefit to your family! The lessons are far more structured than the typical big pet store. This is not a daycare, but a learning experience for human and dog.

I love having Garrett work with my dogs! He has helped take my lab pit mix from a terrible puller…read moreto an excellent walker, as well as improving her skills at recall, sit, stay, etc. She had no training before, but responded very quickly to him. My corgi mix has a lot of fear issues - especially with men. However, she has made good progress on building a trust for him in just a few sessions. His approach with a focus on establishing a relationship with the specific dog REALLY WORKS! Strongly recommend

Garrett's gentle and positive techniques really made a big difference in how we worked with Roy at home (we learned how to be better dog parents) and the whole training process was very positive. Now Roy is an adult dog and our house is peaceful and our walks and off leash time is calm and fun. I highly recommend Garrett

She came over for a few sessions and patiently showed us what to do. It's been especially great because she continues to help us with those specific issues whenever we're at the group fitness classes. Gretchen has shown a lot of improvement since we've been working more closely with Tracy. I'm really glad we signed up for the private dog training. Highly recommend.

Goodness, Dawn had a crappy experience! In the PAST I had noticed that it was like pulling teeth to…read moreget the front desk girl to acknowledge you - but I haven't seen her lately. Hopefully they figured it out. WE took our two Westies here to be groomed after my having such an awful time at Oh My Dog. WELL. WONDERFUL. That's all. Sarah was a groomer, and she was FAN.TASTIC. I used to show Westies - I KNOW I'm picky. I know not every groomer knows breed standards. I have made concessions for that in the past. With Sarah, I didn't have to. She was so detailed, and made SURE she knew what I wanted and expected. And didn't treat me like I was overbearing for asking for what I wanted. I paid $98 for both dogs - and couldn't be happier. She knows dogs. She's friendly. She's precise. She's professional. She frankly, saved my idea of finding a real groomer in Eugene. As far as the shop, I love all the swanky puppy toys and treats. It can be a bit pricey, but it's a specialty store, and if I'm looking for frilly and fun, I KNOW where I can get it. Frankly, as long as they keep Sarah, I'll MAKE a point to go in and spend. I get my pups toothbrushes there too - and even when I'm only spending $1.50 - they're still nice and grateful. Love this place.

I'm a first time puppy owner and I don't know what to do with him. I was scrolling through Instagram came across Curious K9 and I thought ok I'll give them a try. I recognized her last name and realized I was in the right place. I will never for get the first phone call with LeeAnn and I cried through the whole phone conversation. I think I answered a couple of questions. One thing I didn't like about other dog trainers that I tried was all the games and confusing dog training style .With my very first appointment with them, they knew the problem and got on it immediately to help me and my lab. They were very good with helping me when I wasn't quite sure if I was doing the right thing. They are amazing. I took every class they recommended. I also did doggie day care with training two days a week for a month. I now have the very best relationship with my boy. The only place he stays when I go out of town and can't take him with is with LeeAnn and her team. He also has doggie daycare days. We are like family. I would highly recommend them for any of your dog care needs.

Instead, he pulls out a toy stuffed dog on a leash and drags it around on the floor to "demonstrate" how his training is supposed to work. He speaks in a very low voice and is hard to understand.

Over many years, I have worked with some very good trainers and some who weren't so great; however, Harold Hansen--the owner and sole trainer of Heeling Free--is by far the worst.

Due to lockdown, we chose to conduct training sessions remotely over Zoom. If you're not familiar with Pyrenees they're giant dogs, VERY independent, and challenging to train in normal circumstances. I was skeptical we'd make any progress over Zoom. I was wrong! Lauren was non-judgmental, systematic and patient, and worked as a team with us, our vet, and our pets over a couple of months. She works on the basis of positive reinforcement for pups, not scaring them or forcing them into submission. She helped us figure out that the aggression was a response to anxiety, she gave concrete and easy-to-follow suggestions for training, and we now have a happy pup family once again. Thanks, Lauren! (P.S. Plus she hosted Christmas pics with pups last year. First pic we were ever able to get with my husband, me, and our 2 giant girls. Thank you!!!)

Below is my email in my final attempt to correspond with Creative Canine Solutions. They are not…read moreanswering my calls, not calling me back, not responding to my emails. Very professional outfit here *sarcasm. They rejected my puppy for not having proper vaccine records even though I followed their advice. I am a business owner myself and I'm appalled at the lack or responsiveness and unprofessionalism. Keep in mind I lost $200 and received no compensation. Lauren (owner), While I completely understand the need for proof of vaccines, I do not understand why you accepted my application and charged me for a course that Persy was not approved for. Then, further exacerbated the problem by relaying a message through the instructor that was unaware of the exact issues while not even attempting to let me know otherwise until the night before the second class (2 weeks later). This was something that should have been resolved before I was ever charged for the course! And, if you'll recall correctly, that was exactly what was done upon my first attempt to enroll. So naturally I assumed that everything was good when you accepted my second attempt at enrollment. To add insult to injury, you are presumably unwilling to make this right in any capacity outside of allowing me to attend the remainder of the course without my puppy. This makes me strongly question your knowledge of training as 75% of the benefit will come from the puppy actually being there. You further suggested I go to a vet and have her revaccinated, which further compromises the puppies immune system. No vet with a credit to their name will vouch for Persy without administering the vaccines themselves, this was made clear to me multiple times. Lastly, it is preposterous to even attempt a claim that I took another dog's spot in the course. There were only 4 dogs enrolled and plenty of room for additional attendees. This is bad business, plain and simple. I try to keep my business local, but situations like this make it hard to look that direction. I went with your course regardless of the fact that you were $85 more expensive than petsmart (with a coupon). You could have offered a private class or a credit for later training but nothing was offered. This cost me a lot of money, I hope you'll reconsider a refund or a real alternative because coming to puppy training without my puppy is not an option.
