Our dog was a handful before we met Danika Postle. Very aggressive and fearful of other dogs and people. We now have a new dog!! Danika is a wonder. Highly recommend. Very patient. The main training is the owners.
Amazing people and great help. My dog has gotten so far with them helping. I highly suggest tomey k9 to anyone.
Babydog group have been fantastic. We joined the socialization group, and a few dog walks. Both were very helpful for both me and Ruby.
Our dog Dewey is a rescue from Mexico and came to us with some behavioural issues. Aviva the owner of Baby Dog training is the best trainer we’ve encountered. She uses the principles of psychology including desensitization and positive reinforcement. Aviva is kind and patient and has a sense of humour. Dewey has improved and we will definitely recommend Baby Dog training!!!!!
We got our German Shepherd Niro when he was 12 weeks old and since he was our first puppy, we enrolled him in group training classes right away! Mainly working with Aviva and Ruth, they have taught us everything we need to know in order to raise a happy, smart, obedient dog by using positive training methods. Their puppy socialization classes have taught him how to play with dogs of all sizes safely and he has made many puppy friends through it. We would highly recommend them if you have a new puppy!
We did private lessons with Danika for our new puppy and could not be happy with the experience. She was knowledgable, thorough, and you can clearly see how passionate she is about her job and dogs. Would recommend to anyone with a new puppy or looking to improve their relationship with their dog. Decibels going to come back for intermediate lessons in the spring!
We took our dog Angus to puppy socialization with Baby Dog for several months. It was the best thing we did for him as a puppy. He knows how to interact with dogs of all sizes and different temperaments and how to greet people nicely. We also got a lot of training tips and helpful information on how to properly care for a puppy. I highly recommend taking your puppy to Baby Dog.
Took our pup to socialization classes for several months. What she and we learned there was invaluable to create a friendly we’ll socialized young dog. The information learned at the classes continue to help us train our dog even though she’s aged out of the class. The weekly news letters we continue to receive are also extremely useful with great information on caring for and training our dog. Recommend Baby Dog very highly.
