My daughter learned the most!!!

Thanks so much for your work w/ Pork Chop. He has made great strides in his behavior in only three sessions with you, and I feel much more comfortable as a first-time dog owner now. Thanks so much!
Heidi S. with Pork Chop
Sarah was an awesome instructor. She made learning fun & it was a great experience for me & my puppy. We’d highly recommend her & hope to take more classes with her in the future.

Sarah is a godsend. When I first adopted Bella, she had been living in a shelter for six months and was so confused as to what the world even was outside of the cage she was living in. Sarah helped me to understand Bella–the way she thinks, the way she remembers, the way she understands the confusing world around her. Now Bella and I are more bonded and solid than ever because of Sarah. She really helped me to have a better and more meaningful relationship with my dog.

Kate was a great trainer. Meli already knew some of the concepts in the class, but Kate always gave us modifications to help her learn the next level of a command so that she was engaged in each class.

The extra agility foundations were icing on the cake. Even though we had a private session for the primary purpose of the eval, Amanda ensured we utilized the full hour and taught me as handler with zero agility experience a new few things about agility in a clear, simple and repeatable manner! Amanda now got me hooked on wanting…

The classes have been awesome, and a real benefit to Rux’s confidence and training all around. We both really look forward to classes, and Sarah, you’re great! I also really appreciate that the number of dogs enrolled in class is kept to small number. We walked away after each class with new skills to work with and build on.

Very pleased with our experience at Doggie Academy. Reilly clearly enjoys it. It’s fun to see that he’s an eager learner and it’s great exercise for him physically and mentally. Sarah sized up Reilly right away and gave specific suggestions for training our speedster.

We had a great experience. I have quite a bit of experience training dogs and taught our Bigi basic obedience. I had never done agility and was interested to learn about it. I learned a lot and it was great for Bigi as well.

Classes at the Doggie Academy are a fun and exciting experience for both the dogs and their owners. When we approach Doggie Academy, the dogs get excited and rush to the door. I find the classes are useful to improve as a dog owner, and they help the dogs develop better disciplinary skills, as well as enhance the emotional bond between pet and handler. I don’t plan on taking my dog to any agility competitions, nonetheless the activities involved excite the dogs, and encourage them to figure out …
