Clients Say…

It was all really helpful – Cooper is working on not jumping up, recall, and not being sassy when we put on the harness 🙂 all of the exercises were helpful and we’ve already started working on them with him and are slowly seeing improvements!
Grace B. with Cooper
dog obedience
We first heard about Doggie Academy from the Internet. Once we had a session with Kate, though, we were hooked. She has such a positive, upbeat attitude, and offers helpful tips for improving our life with Wicket (within the practical realm of what we and Wicket are able to achieve). Unlike other trainers we had worked with previously, Kate is not judgmental, listens carefully, and does not try to rush things. She gives thorough advice, feedback, and (of course) Wicket loves her.

Lexington and I would love to come back and continue learning about the art of being a good dog.
Marcy S. with Lexington
Although we live in Astoria, I don’t mind traveling all the way to Brooklyn to take the classes because my dog (and I) really enjoy them!

I appreciated the variety of training exercises and strategies offered to tackle the assorted challenges my dog and I were having.
Beth V. with Pagan on the CGC Workshop
Hi Sarah, I hope you are doing well and your puppy too! My parents got home a couple days ago and say Sam is doing well. Thank you for everything. Sammy is already improving and loves me more.
Mollie N. with Sam

We loved working with Sarah!
Johanna M. with Clover
In home dog training
We had one in home session and I saw results after because I was consistent with the lessons I learned from Jamie. She was great and I plan on using her again!
Rona D. with Hunter
dog behavior
Kate is extremely patient and kind. She listened to my concerns and adjusted the class to fit Charlie’s needs and mood. I look forward to our next lesson!
Zuri F. with Charlie
Jameson loves challenges and I love the bond it creates between me and my dog(s). The instructors at Doggie Academy are outstanding. I appreciate the common thread that runs through all the instructors on how they relate to the dogs they are training. I always feel my dog’s best interest is what is important. With every class we’ve taken I have also learned how to read my dog and patiently allow him (and my female at home) to think through a task. I’ve learned how to not react when they act out …
