Mark and Angel are amazing trainers. They were very patient and calm while working with both me and my dog. They spent time explaining what they were teaching my dog and how I could properly use the tools to obtain the same results. Would highly recommend their services.

- Jackie R.

Great trainers and overall experience. My older, large dog had a lot of bad habits and some aggressive tendencies. They worked with her and us to help her work them out and gave us great support with the group classes after. Highly recommend!
