Buddy went from an unruly shelter dog to a Canine Good Citizen and that would not have been possible without Leslie. I will admit early on in the first Basic Class I was skeptical and thought there is no way MY dog is going to be able to do the things she is teaching, BUT that quickly changed because Leslie takes the time and trains YOU as well as your dog. I walked away with the skills I needed to make my dog behave at all times in the same way he did in class. Buddy became a true ambassador for his breed and we are forever grateful to Leslie and It's Your Dog!

I can't recommend Nancy at Know Your Dog Training highly enough…read more After doing extensive research to find the right trainer, I'm so glad I found Nancy. From the beginning it was clear that she has a deep understanding of dogs and brings a calm, confident, and professional approach to everything she does. My dog Kane completed a training program with her, and I was extremely impressed with the experience and the results. Nancy takes the time to truly understand each dog and provides the kind of structure, guidance, and consistency that helps dogs thrive. Since then, Nancy has also become my trusted go-to whenever I travel. Knowing Kane is in her care gives me tremendous peace of mind. He always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. What really sets Nancy apart is the level of attention and personalization she provides. This isn't a typical boarding situation -- she genuinely gets to know the dogs she works with and creates a thoughtful, structured environment for them. Nancy is trustworthy, caring, extremely knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what she does. I'm very grateful I found her and would recommend Know Your Dog Training without hesitation to anyone looking for a skilled trainer or a safe, reliable place for their dog while they're away.

Nancy was referred to me by another trusted dog trainer I worked with in the city, and I'm so glad…read moreshe was. Having a city dog isn't easy -- our 4-year-old Wheaten Terrier (female) has tons of energy, a stubborn streak, and some anxiety and reactivity issues around other dogs. We were looking for help with leash training and overall confidence, and Nancy was the perfect fit. From the very first interaction, Nancy was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She clearly loves what she does and cares deeply about every dog she works with. I enrolled our pup in a month-long board-and-train program while I was getting married, and Nancy made the experience completely stress-free. She stayed in constant communication, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that showed the progress and the specific behaviors being worked on -- plus advice for us as owners to reinforce at home. When our dog came back, the difference was night and day. She's calmer, more responsive, and walks beautifully on a leash with far fewer distractions. Her reactivity around other dogs has improved dramatically, and she seems much more confident overall. Even after the program ended, Nancy went above and beyond -- she included additional follow-up lessons at no cost and still checks in to see how things are going. Her board-and-train setup is amazing too: the dogs aren't kept in kennels but get to enjoy the outdoors, sunshine, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I can't recommend Know Your Dog and Nancy enough for anyone looking for dog training, board-and-train programs, or boarding with a personal touch. Nancy truly changed our dog's behavior -- and our lives -- for the better.

After a few months of working with Rebecca (virtually), I was introduced to many methods to help us work on the reactive behavior, which has helped tremendously! I now have a toolkit and a better understanding of my dog's emotions. I have watched Rebecca's journey with her own reactive pup, Brodie, unfold on Instagram. She has a deep awareness and understanding of dog behavior and emotions, and it shows in her kind and compassionate care toward her own dog and her clients. Through positive reinforcement, she prioritizes the happiness and wellbeing for both the pups and their people, and it helps set the stage for a stronger bond!

We've tried several trainers and boarding facilities in various cities and states. We even resorted to trying a famous YouTube trainer and he came back worse and even more anxious. Typically, these expensive "board and trains" we've participated in have ended with medication recommendations and a "good luck". One final trainer recommended we try Mind Of Dog because she also wasn't able to break through. I'm so grateful we did. He's thriving and comes home exhausted. An added bonus is the people training we've received. The best part of all of it, is that he's finally getting the exercise and structure he's always needed and deserves. They handle the dogs calmly, but with lots of structure and clear boundaries, which our dog desperately needs. We can finally go to work and travel without worrying that he's being mishandled or ignored. We're so grateful to have found this place and I have to admit, I was waiting for him to fail again, because we had lost all hope. I highly recommend that you give Mind Of Dog a shot, especially if you're in a similar position as we were. Thanks, Mind of Dog! Senna loves you all and is so grateful to be able to play with dogs without fear and anxiety.

He is always returned to us calm and with wonderful manners. Because of this, Zeke enjoys a very free life--being able to come with us anywhere and behave in public settings, with people and other animals. I cannot recommend Hound Harmony more!

I left a box of candy for her as well as for Danielle along with a can of chocolate goodies. I always treated them fair and decent. Can't say the same for Danielle anymore. The owner Danielle was usually never there when I dropped my dog off early, but that day she was there and rushing around in a frenzy. When I returned to pick my dog up, I didn't notice the horrible grooming they had done. They had her hair up in a water fountain style on top of her head as I usually did myself, but it looked as if it was never trimmed. It wasn't. It was not even combed! They left her in knots! It looked like they dried her, grabbed her hair on top, put her bow in her hair and a scarf. I blew it off thinking it was my imagination since I was going there 2 years and they couldn't have neglected her like that. When we got home I looked at the back of her tail, it was shaved off! She had a water fountain tail, thick beautiful tail that always covered her behind. Now her whole back of her behind was exposed. My husband and I picked her up and then saw all the knots in her tail. We gently had to comb them out and she lost so much hair again. Her ears and head were chopped all uneven. I was in shock. We noticed there was an older woman working in the back where they groom the dogs; perhaps she groomed her in this manner or was it Danielle? I will never know. I called and left a message, I was very upset and she never called me back. Goes to show you how much she cared about us and especially my dog who was left butchered up like that. She even had the nerve to tell my husband the same day that she increased the price of grooming. What an unprofessional way to handle the increase. To top it off, when I went to pick up my dog, she had her walking around the room with a ton of other dogs. Who gave her permission to do that? I don't want my dog exposed to other animals like that. Horrible. Of course, she'll never see us again. No one will ever get the chance to abuse my dog more than once. Be careful who you choose to groom your dog. This is a pic of my 2 year old dog Cookie after we tried to comb out all of her knots. Unfortunately I do not have pics of her face because we already trimmed it to make it as even as possible; believe me, it was also a disaster cut. Perhaps she overbooked this day and that's why my dog never got her regular treatment? Still waiting for an apology.

But none of this would be possible without the exceptional guidance and personalized help we've had over the past several years from the team at Good Dog. Do yourself a favor, and sign up for class today. You won't regret it! Here's the reality... I had no idea how to train a dog. I thought it was something you do for a couple of months, and maybe you get a dog that listens to you. But Anne's approach of really helping dog owners understand dog psychology and effective techniques for breaking skill-building into bite-sized chunks helped me reshape my thinking and develop the patience and consistency needed to get an incredible result. I never dreamed that I could have a dog that listens as well as Sierra. How well does Sierra listen? Well, her recall is so good that she came running up 2 flights of stairs when I previewed the video I chose to include in this review. Just from the whistle in the video. I thought that kind of behavior was outside of my abilities to achieve. But Good Dog helped me realize that training a dog doesn't have to be a burden -- it's a lot easier than you think. It just requires consistency and a bit of oversight from a knowledgeable expert. Point is... You could have this for your dog, too!
