Companion Canine Dog Training

Companion Canines board and training program was the best choice we made for our family! We adopted Falcon about 4 years ago and has always been a decently mild mannered dog, but he had room for improvement. His listening skills and recalls would falter in public leaving us with a lack of confidence going out or bringing him around other dogs. Along with reintroducing kennel training, which was a very challenging process because he would bark, pant, and cry, leaving us feeling like failures. In only 3 weeks, Falcon has made quite the turnaround! We now are no longer worried about whether or not we would be equipped to bring him out in public with other dogs. Not only is he better with his listening, his recall is no longer a stressor. His kennel training has improved greatly, we are no longer being woken up at all hours of the night. Becky and Gueseppe were the only option we considered when it came to dog training. They are both highly skilled and knowledgeable, choosing was a real no-brainer.

I sent my dog to Companion Canine for a three week board and train and I couldnt be happier with not only the results, but the entire process. Prior to finding Becky and Gueseppe I had said I would never send my dog to a board and train and I meant it! But what Companion Canine offers is radically different from your average BnT. I liked the fact that my dog would be living in their home with their dogs and working on our goals in a thoughtful, measured environment; not locked in a kennel for most of the day getting no exercise or socialization and losing his house manners. They spoke with me at length about my dog, our life, our problems and our goals. They never promised a quick fix (which would have been a red flag,) but instead explained their methods and were very clear about the work we would have to do at home to achieve our goals. I never once felt judged or talked down to in our conversations, and I cant say the same for other trainers I interviewed. At the end of the three weeks I was so impressed with what they had accomplished! One of my major goals was neutrality around people and dogs and hot dang if we dont have an incredible foundation for that now. I was able to walk my dog through a bustling tourist town on a weekend, something that would not have been possible before his trip to the farm! A big part of that success is the time Companion Canine spent coaching ME, making sure I understood how to handle these situations and what would work best for my dog. What I have learned has not only made my life with my dog better, but I know will have a positive impact on my future dogs as well. Becky and Gueseppe still answer my texts and emails in depth any time I have questions, and the support they offer is truly invaluable. Any time I have an issue they are always there to help, coming up with creative solutions to whatever were going through. I count myself lucky to have found them and intend to continue using their services to level up throughout the life of my dog.
