Doggie Academy has been great with helping my puppy socialize, and learning commands. The instructors show genuine concern and will always go above and beyond to help your dog succeed. I will continue taking courses in order to build up the foundation.

I loved the intro to agility class and so did Libby. Amanda was great – always upbeat and helpful. I would love to take another class on agility.

Amanda was absolutely great, super sweet and funny, had a lot of patience and made the class a lot of fun. Everyone enjoyed themselves, dogs and humans!

It was really good for Mowgli to be around dogs and lots of stimuli, but still practice sitting quietly and being patient. Of course, it was SO fun to have him do the obstacles as well and he seemed to pick them up quickly (though not necessarily execute them quickly haha).
Abby E. with Mowgli
When Sarah arrived for the lesson, I really appreciate that she took her time in talking to us and getting to the root of our problem with Auggie (he was nipping) and was never judgmental. We discussed the problem, what solutions would work, and then a plan of attack. She walked us through the cues, gave us tips, and showed us what to keep an eye on.
