I searched out training facilities, watched YouTube videos, asked neighbors, family & friends about how to train this new pup but knew it was not going well. Meanwhile my son's 80# 4 year old Catahoula was living with me and while he was house trained, the training ended there. When I first spoke with Kristen I knew the experience was going to be different - due to COVID. I could not travel and her facility was not taking new clients at the time. Due to circumstances, Kristen continued to work with me virtually and gave me the option of doing the on-line training. Although I was skeptical at first, this was an AMAZING Experience. I obtained the videos and trained at my pace. I would watch a video, try the technique taught, and then watch the video again. I took my time but created a consistent and timely training plan with my very motivated puppy. I started to try some of the techniques on the Catahoula and was amazed that you can teach an older dog new tricks! Highly recommend this program & Kristen is an awesome trainer to work with.

I am beyond grateful that Angelina was recommended to me by a local mom. From our first phone call…read moreyou can tell that she is a well educated trainer and passionate about helping dogs and their human families. We have used her since the first day of bringing our Bernedoodle, Willow, home. We did her 2 week board to train program. We received daily updates and extremely detailed videos and notes as well as a schedule of what Willow's day should look like. Willow came back potty trained, crate trained and with a handful of commands. The fact that Willow was boarded in Angelina's home was very important to me. Now, at 7 months old and almost 60lbs, Willow has hit adolescence and Angelina is guiding our family and Willow through this time. She will pick Willow up and take her on training field trips and I will receive multiple detailed videos and full report. We also do training at my house which is more of Angelina training me to know how to handle Willow's pushback and work with her as her mom. I refer Angelina to everyone I know and will continue to use her as a trainer and boarder for Willow. Watching Willow get so excited to work with Angelina and be fully present in the training session is worth its weight in gold.

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!

(My dog had been abused by his first owner. ) he said about marking - "oh thats a hard one" Really? And again no help or advice. He'd say, oh we got this and a another 5 days - perfect, that would do it. What a fool i was. Example - We had a session, that was supposed to be an hour. I knew I had to cut it short at the end. But the appointment started at 11:30, and Tom got there at 11:50, with no apology or offer to give me my money back. Approximately $83. A couple of other times I needed to cancel, and he bullied me into not cancelling. I cannot believe I gave him that much money . Thats all he cared about. His anger is a bit scary too. Never taught me what to do. When I would say to him, my dog is so reactive, he would say(if you can believe it), " well he doesn't do that here" ... for many behaviors, his response was the same, "well he doesn't do that with me..." Oh wait, yes... he did teach my dog to "walk w manners ". I was never even taught how and when to give him treats as reinforcement. What a joke. I would have preferred to burn the money instead. I failed because he failed. And walked away with nearly $11,000 of mine. I totally trusted him. I have found a REAL trainer who said that taking that kind if money from me was just wrong. I GOT NOTHING OUT OF IT BECAUSE HE GAVE ME NOTHING.

I do not recommend! When Tom first arrived, he asked my husband how we would like him to approach…read moreour dog. We didn't have an answer because WE"RE not the trainers! Tom made our dog's aggression worse by purposely setting her off by turning his back and wearing a hood. He didn't speak to our dog, and he made himself an altering presence by not showing his face to our dog. Before entering our house, Tom gave us no directions as to how to react to our dog's aggressive behavior. He didn't instruct us as to if we should interfere or not. I felt on edge because I didn't know what to do and I'm sure our dog felt my uneasiness. Tom snapped at me saying "Don't talk to her like that" for trying to calm down our dog which probably made her even more mad because now her owner is being spoken to harshly. Again, I didn't know what to do, he hadn't told us anything before entering our house. He was rude, kept talking poorly about her breeder and asking questions about her breeder that we didn't have answers to. Clearly stated that my husband and I couldn't afford the 3 week boarding and training that he does. He was just plain rude. His bottom line was that our "set-up" wasn't good for her and we most likely won't be able to handle her. After he left, our dog was so on edge, she was growling at night, barking at the windows, was staring at the spot he sat in, and she's never done these things before. My husband has spoken to two other dog trainers and they both said that a person should NEVER turn their back to a dog due to that heightening their aggression and fear. He most likely did this in order to increase his price due to her "aggression" that he caused. I've been texting with a different dog trainer and she has given more advice that has been working than he had given in an 80 minute session. My dog is workable and I see that through the training from the other trainer.

I could not recommend Emily and her team enough. Words do not capture how wonderful K9 bootcamp is…read more I do not think I can properly articulate how reactive my dog Jabu was. Any squirrel or dog and sometimes human that passed us by would lead to a huge explosion. Multiple times I had neighbors come outside to ask us if everything was okay. It got to the point where I was driving about 20 minutes to abandoned parking lots and other areas where I knew I wouldn't run into anything while walking him. I knew he needed training - and fast. I was comfortable with Emily from our first consultation. It was evident to me that she had deep knowledge of dogs and their psychology, she was professional, and I could tell she loved dogs. She took on the challenge of training Jabu with no hesitation and our lives are so much better for it. He was gone for several months because his reactivity was so bad, but I never felt in the dark about what was happening. Emily always sent me pictures and videos of his progress, and she responded quickly to questions. Once Jabu was trained, it was time to train me. During our lessons together in the handover process, Emily continued to be professional and patient .. even as it took me a while to learn the commands and how to handle Jabu. She shared so many memories and stories of Jabu over the months... something I deeply appreciated, as I missed him so much while he was gone. Every time we went for our lessons, Jabu was excited to see Emily again. He would run to her, tail wagging, ready for some love. I could tell he really felt comfortable with her, trusted her and loved her, and that she loved him and cared for him as though he was her own. Honestly, I think he might even miss being at training school!!! As for his behavior... WOW. What a miracle. I used to turn into a track athlete and run in the opposite direction any time I saw anything that moved. Now, I walk with Jabu at a leisurely speed because he's focused on me and not on hunting other four legged creatures. The dog that used to blow up at dogs 100 feet away can now sit two inches away from another dog... with no reaction. Today, we walked past THREE dogs at once... and nothing. It's incredible honestly and I could not thank Emily enough. I am so grateful to have found Emily and the rest of her team (who were always so kind when I visited the office and seemed to love Jabu too - thanks guys!). Without them, I would still be driving to abandoned parking lots and sheltering Jabu inside as much as possible. Instead, now I'm looking forward to one day taking him on my hikes with me because I know he can handle it. Thank you thank you THANK YOU Emily for training Jabu and allowing us to have a healthy and happy life together. To anyone who is considering working with K9.... Please do it, you will not regret it!!!
