I brought my dogs in to the canine center for a few classes and a private training. Today, our trainer said that to solve my GSD's reactivity on the leash, we just needed to stop letting her go to the dog park. Okay, that's fine to have the a stance about a dog park, but i expect some sort of guide or training if I'm paying for a private session; not just - "stop taking your dog to the dog park." That's not a cure-all. Giving us a scripted answer that the dog park is the root of all evil isn't particular helpful for the situation that we're currently in. Which is truly, she has already learned reactivity on the leash so * where do we go/what do we do from here. * My vet had recommended this place many times but fool me three times canine center! Maybe other trainers are better or a better fit, but I felt like I could have Googled and saved myself $100. Additionally - the website says their recess is their take on day care; the trainer told me it's only for puppies. Too many conflicting message here. This place isn't for me and my fur babies.

Submit the form on the website, pick something from the schedule, etc., and they'll finalize with you by email. Review: My personal trainer recommended a dog trainer, go figure. Not for me, for my dog: my squat form is fine. How I've used this business: for both one-on-one sessions and class-style training (six consecutive weeks), always at their locations (have not tried housecall service). We've seen excellent results. I would both use them again and recommend them to others. I'll note also that my girlfriend, who is disabled, had a good experience in the classroom setting, which helped her quickly gain confidence in handling the dog.

Jagger Scott kept in touch constantly with beautiful videos showing our little boys' progress week by week. Berwyn had confrontation issues in public with other dogs, and people, and now he is calm and poised and responds immediately to commands. The beautiful part,,- in all the videos he is wagging his tail during training, he was obviously having a blast training with Jagger during the training sessions. Jagger is truly our local Austin dog whisperer , and we are truly appreciative of all his work that he did for our little boy Berwyn . This is a really wonderful investment, because for the next 10 or 12 years at least, Berwyn is now going to be able to come to restaurants with us, go shopping at stores and most importantly, go with us to outdoor concerts to watch our son in concert! This has opened up a whole new life for him, he's going to get to go everywhere with us and share life with us, I am so excited and looking forward to the future, thank you, Jagger!

Aspen had been struggling with some behavior issues toward Sofia, and we weren't sure how to handle it. We also wanted Sofia to learn some manners. Zion came in with so much knowledge, patience, and kindness. She took the time to really get to know both dogs and customized the training to fit their personalities and our household, since we also have another dog, Bowie (6). Thanks to Zion, we've seen a huge shift in Aspen's behavior, and Sofia is thriving too. The tension between them is lessening and it's so rewarding to see them getting along and building a friendship. Zion was supportive every step of the way--we felt heard, never judged, and always like our dogs were in great hands. Highly recommend this service if you're looking for a trainer who truly cares. Thank you so much, Zion!

She takes the time to asses your dog's behavior, interaction with owners, and makes sure your goals with training based on individualized needs. She methodically uses techniques that will work for you! With Hunter's training, our pup no longer jumps on people, comes when called, walks off leash, lays, stays, no longer gets on the couch/bed unless asked, and is no longer aggressive when it comes to her food. Other than her training skills, Hunter comes to your home and is ALWAYS on time or early- which makes training super convenient! She is an absolute pleasure to work with, and we would definitely recommend her!

When Hunter organized a training course for neighborhood dogs we were quick to show interest and we…read moreweren't disappointed. Though there were a few dogs in the group, she gave each one very individualized attention depending on the dog/owner needs. Our dog Blue is a former shelter dog with limited social skills and some anxiety. Hunter zeroed in on what he needed and gave us clear instructions and support. We practiced techniques at home and he has shown great improvement in his ability to be around other dogs, he consistently responds to commands, and has learned to be calm and relaxed so that we can take him to parks, restaurants, etc. We were very happy with what Hunter accomplished in her training of Blue (and us!) in just a few short weeks.

In both instances our dog was injured because a staff member ignored him while he was in their kennel. He heard me at the door and got excited. Like all dogs. But instead of trying to get him calmed down or out of the kennel all together. Instead he's now getting about a dozen stitches. The owner wasn't there at the time. She called and told me that they should have him come in any more. IN OTHER WORDS...ITS THE DOGS FAULT! Are you kidding me. DO NOT bring your pet to Train My Dogs! Period RESPONSE TO OWNER WOW! So if I understand what you're trying to say, this is our fault for continuing to bring him there. If he did pass your "test" you should have said so day one. Don't try and excuse your mistakes by saying you took Walle in in spite of risks. That's not only one of the dumbest things I've ever heard, but it clearly shows you wont claim ANY RESPONSIBILITY for the fact that your staff knew of the risk and ignored it. Stop trying to make yourself feel better at our expense.

They have four different modules that the pets cycle through--school, outdoor playtime, pool/water fun, and naptime. They pair dogs by personality/temperament and size. The people who work at this business actually REALLY do love dogs. They understand them, they like them, they treat them like individuals by helping them where they're at and what they need to work on. We have been super impressed with this place. I love the fact that we get dog obedience with dog play time all in the same day. Our puppy comes home super happy and exhausted! We've tried most of the dog day care locations in and around the downtown Austin area and we are most happy with this place. They are super accommodating for their clients, they have really well-trained staff and they really do what they say they're going to do with your dog.
