Jill & Quinn

"Delores has such a powerful connection with dogs and their behaviors. She helped us navigate some troubling adolescent behaviors that were evolving in our dog Quinn and taught us how to help Quinn through triggering events. Her positive training techniques are a game changer. Highly recommend Delores and her team!"

 

Julie & Arthur

My energetic 11 month old puppy loves The Behavior & Enrichment Center. He can’t wait to get inside! I’ve never seen him so happy running, jumping and trashing things. The themes are really cute and match the seasons with fun things to climb on and explore. On a rainy day, this was just what Arthur needed! It’s so worth it!
We have done puppy classes with Hannah which were my favorite in all the places we have done training. Delores the owner is very knowledgeable and helpful. She came to my house for a behavior consult and immediately noticed that my young puppy had hip issues. I’m so thankful for that information and her suggestions! I highly recommend this place! - Google Review

Ravindra & Coco

Superb and amazing training. The Learning Dog Academy helped us and our dog learn how to work with each other. Coco (and our family) learned to put into context and modify the behaviors we were experiencing with our 6 month old Labradoodle. With the adolescent behavior course - the Learning Dog training helped us work weekly with Coco. The environment and set up allows dogs to be in a happy place - so the training happens and you can practice. Just great. Absolutely 5 stars and no hesitation for recommending them. - Google Review
