He's a big boy who had very little manners and was unable to be walked on a leash without dragging the person walking him. He would growl at me or my family members over food and would guard his bowl or his treats. We were at the point of either rehoming him due to us having smaller children or having him trained. I am so very happy that I brought Gunner to Ace's Dog Academy! He has been there for 5 weeks now and I see such an improvement in our boy! He is walking on a leash very well and learning new commands to make it easier for us at home. He is doing well with the work they are doing regarding food aggression too! The trainers keep us updated with videos on his progress and take the time to explain how they are doing things and why. I couldn't be happier with our decision to help Gunner be a happy and obedient member of our family! I would recommend Ace's Dog Academy to anyone and everyone!

Over the last year, moving across the country twice took a toll on our doodle, Tucker. He went from…read morebeing a happ-go-lucky pup to struggling around other dogs. Everywhere I went, I was told he just couldn't be with other dogs. Then we found MCA. Dalton simply said, "Bring him in. We'll work with him." And they did. Today, Tucker is back to his goofy, fun-loving self. A few weeks ago, Tyson(our other doodle) had an injury at home that required stitches. Shortly after, I had to board both dogs at MCA while I was out of town. The team took incredible care of him, and when Tyson managed to rip out his stitches, Dalton immediately called me, took him back to the vet, and made sure he was taken care of. I truly can't say enough about MCA. They genuinely care about every dog that walks through their doors, and their entire team always puts your dog's well-being first. We are so grateful for them. Tucker and Tyson so excited when we pull up to MCA.

I decided three weeks ago to go with this company for PSA online training for my one year-old dog…read moreto help me with my symptoms of PTSD and others, I had already been working with my dog for two months and I got him three months ago from the SPCA and when I first got him, he wouldn't even really come to me and he did not eat for the first two days and stayed in the little doggy bed, I worked with him daily, slowly and patiently, and he learned 22 commands and was able to pass the PSA training course which I had to take to restaurants, DEPT store, and other videos that I had to submit and send in which I did and he passed, people that are complaining on this site about their training with trainers, I will tell you first of all that it's your dog not the stranger trainer, if you want your dog to work for you and with you, you have to work with your animal and don't give excuses that you don't have time and you can't do it ,because then why did you get a dog in the first place? Your dog needs to get used to you and not a trainer and just like every dog is different ,so is every trainer and that's why it's best for you to learn how to train your animal and it's not hard. It is based on trust between you and the animal, patience, and the ability to repeat and repeat the commands and practice until it actually becomes second nature to the dogs, don't tell me that when we all had children it came with a manual because it didn't, and we all learned how to be parents to our children if you have any, and grandparents, teachers and babysitters cannot raise your children or teach them the way that parents can, so the same thing with a dog and a trainer. I'm not a believer of the trainers and it's all about the money, find time to do it yourself. It is just that most people just want it done overnight and it takes time, you will be rewarded, but most of all so will the dog, and in the end, IT'S ALL ABOUT TEAMWORK BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR DOG BECAUSE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO WORK AS A TEAM......

I worked with Matt during my foster-to-adopt process through Animal Rescue New Orleans (ARNO). The…read morenew pup, Maybelline, was so full of love but came from a tough background (she was a bait dog in a fighting ring) and came to my home with essentially 0 healthy socialization with other dogs. I already had a dog, Bugg, who was not a fan of Maybelline and her lack of boundaries only compounded the situation- they couldn't be together without Maybelline running at Bugg and stepping over him (he's a tiny guy). I was determined to make this work so I reached out to ARNO and they connected me to Matt. We had a one hour training session and it was a great experience. Both dogs were comfortable with Matt from the get go. A lot was covered but the breakthrough for me was Matt's guidance in giving the dogs freedom to interact and allowing Bugg to "correct" Maybelline when she invaded his space/ignoring his cues of "I don't want to play, you are too close, give me space" so she couldn't learn. He gave specific recommendations for how much interaction to allow before separating the dogs and to limit face to face positioning. Matt helped me understand body language cues which eased my anxiety- it wasn't aggression on either end, just a case of one dog trying to say "stop annoying me" and the other dog being totally clueless. After that session I was able to relax and let them interact more without feeling like I had to be a helicopter. Soon the dogs were snoozing on the couch together and walking together without issue. We would have gotten here eventually without Matt's help but it would have taken so much longer and have been way more stressful than necessary. I added pictures to show our success :)
