I'm so glad we enrolled in Tony's classes at K9 academy because now we have a obedient dog and the confidence to continue with his training throughout the rest of his life. Most people are nervous to bring their beloved pets to trainers for fear of training to be too rough on them, I know we had our concerns when looking into trainers. Tony is very careful and shows you how to properly correct your dog from bad behaviors without hurting them like some of the other extreme methods for dog training. K9 academy charges a fair price for such a great experience, training and confidence you get with training your dog. I loved the fact that if I have questions even outside of class at anytime during the day I can call him for help and he will guide us in the right direction. You can't get that kind of service from any corporate pet store that offers dog training. Tony also never tried to up sell us on any kind of equipment for training or classes that he felt we didn't need. Tony's very passionate about his work and you can really tell his love for dogs when you meet. K9 academy offers so many different class everything from basic obedience to bomb sniffing training so it's easy to find something right for you and pursue your dogs training as high as you'd like. Our puppy is now 8 months old and is an extremely well behaved and gentle dog. Tony will forever train our dogs as we adopt more of them. If I could rate this place any higher than 5 stars I would. Thanks K9 academy.

We dropped Angus off with Joe, who was quick to put our minds at ease. He showed us where Angus would be staying for the two weeks and explained everything about the training. We knew we left Angus in good hands. We received daily updates (photos and videos) via text which we loved. We were amazed how quickly he was learning his new commands and how well behaved he was (proud parents lol) Angus was a different dog when we picked him up. He was well behaved and quick with his commands. We took him and our other Shepherd to the local park; both were off leash and so well behaved. Angus stayed by my side in a perfect heel. It's been almost 8 months since his training and I've noticed -- without even asking him-- that he heels next to me as I walk. I highly recommend Off Leash Training and thank them wholeheartedly for training Angus.

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.

We absolutely couldn't be happier with Linda at NJ Fix My Dog and the incredible transformation of…read moreour dog Millie. As first-time dog owners, we tried our best to train Millie on our own, but it just wasn't cutting it. We constantly struggled with obedience and her inability to listen to us, intense pulling when we went on walks, jumping, getting mouthy - the list goes on and on. We felt defeated and insecure - but as soon as we talked with Jean and Linda at NJ Fix My Dog, we felt hopeful! They assured us Millie was the kind of dog that could be helped, and they'd be happy to step in.  Throughout Millie's 2 week bootcamp, we received frequent updates from Linda on Millie's progress, photos, and videos. We missed her but we knew she was in excellent care and learning so much everyday. After the 2 week bootcamp, Linda brought Millie home and we were in shock at how well-behaved, and well-mannered suddenly became. The day she came home, Linda spent over an hour with us going over what Millie learned and how to work with her going forward. She also gave us a full document with an assessment of Millie's overall behavior, how to continue to enforce what she learned, and how encourage her along the way.  Before bootcamp, we dreaded going for a walk with Millie because of how she behaved when she saw other dogs (pulling toward them, whimpering, getting anxious, etc.), and how she walked in general (tugging and zig-zagging the entire walk). Now she walks like an absolute DREAM! Right at our side, a nice little trot, ignores other dogs, people, squirrels - everything! We could walk her all day long now, and we look forward to all our walks! Millie used to ignore us when we called for her, or told her "no" if she was doing something we didn't like, but now her recall skills are excellent and she runs right over to us when we call her. She doesn't even try to attempt the bad behavior she used to do, like jumping, getting mouthy, etc., and instead happily relaxes. Her overall demeanor used to be just a little bit intense, always on the lookout for something to get into - but now she is so calm and seems at east with herself. Linda worked WONDERS! We learned so much about Millie through this process, and we truly feel comfortable with what Linda taught us to help Millie be her best self. We feel like we have the tools we need, and the confidence. We feel the support of NJ Fix My Dog now even after Millie is back home - we know Linda is just a call or text away if we need any help.

We had 6 sessions with her and we saw concrete results very fast! Our dog had absolutely no training and shortly after working with Jenny we managed to house-train her, teach her various commands and bring her to the park off-leash! We did almost all of the sessions at home and one at the park (which I think was a very effective combination plus the fact that we started very early) and we plan to call her again if our dog ver needs a refresh or develop any problems. What's great about Jenny and her method is that: 1) she does everything with love; she absolutely adores working with dogs and they obviously reciprocate 2) she respects their own learning time and adapts commands to whatever works best for you and your dog 3) she teaches you how to prevent problematic situations with your dog, helping you to understand how to communicate with them and read their signs. Finally, Jenny is very honest about how many sessions she thinks your dog might need depending on your goals and the dog needs without ever pushing for anything if it's not necessary. I recommend her without hesitation; I'm sure your dog will love her as much as our does!

We found out the hard way that he is very "food motivated". So much so that he would steal food off our counters if you left him alone for a second. To add insult to injury, stealing food would make him anxious and then he would pee on our floor. I was skeptical at first. You can't teach an old dog new tricks, as they say. Apparently that old adage isn't always true. Jenny taught our old dog many new tricks. All of which made him a better, more obedient member of our family. I was pleasantly shocked with how far he progressed under her tutelage.
