Dog Woods Training Center

"Best dog training anywhere. Last year we took in a 2 1/2-year-old shelter dog who had been on her own, probably the whole time, very independent and strong willed to survive. We hired a personal trainer (quite costly) to come to the home, and we Worked with her as he directed and Hera did not learn anything. Fast forward one year to a gentleman at the Dog Park who recommended Dog woods. For the low fee that was charged we figured what the heck let’s give it a try. They were wonderful. The trainer was very personal, small class size, and like I said, very economical. Hera is a brand new and transformed dog and a pleasure to have around. Thank you, Dog Woods, Lisa & Hera"

"I just finished the beginning obedience with my 7 month old puppy and will be returning for the next level of training. I appreciate Donna and her kind, knowledgable and flexible approach to training. The classes were fun and easy to incorporate at home. I can't recommend Dog Woods enough."

"Almost finished the beginner class with our 5.5 month lab pup & can really tell the improvement. Micheal is a good teacher & seems that he wants you to be successful with training & working with your dog - to make your experience with your dog a good one. He offers individual guidance and he even offered an extra class to address specific issues. He expects students (both person & dog) to do the “homework” of daily exercises. We will continue to attend more classes with Dog Woods to work on our Hazelnut."

"Dogwoods Training I have been going here since I got my first dog in 1999-2000. Those ladies are the best and always will be. Now I’m taking one of my pups and our trainer is the son. He is just a personable as the owners. Just a great bunch. We are in beginners obedience. They have advanced and agility training too. They even have a one on one class and will keep your pet while they train them. My goal is the AKC good citizens award. Ha-Ha ...with my guys that’s a stretch. But Dogwoods is the ones to get us there. I will be updating this review on how well Shelby completes the beginner class."

"I was referred to DogsWoods by a friend who brought her puppy here nearly 30 years ago. The way she talked about them and the improvement she saw in her puppy, I had to give them a call ... and oh, am I overjoyed that I did! My 5-month old puppy started the puppy training class in March 2017 at 3-months and graduated 6-weeks later. At first, she was a bit of a "tough cookie" and the puppy training classes have been the most helpful in getting a very energetic and sometimes stubborn puppy to behave and pay attention. Donna and Michael are both encouraging even "training" me, for a lack of better words, to be patient and remain consistent in my training with her. In addition to the intro puppy training class, my puppy goes to Day Training where she receives additional hands-on training and socialization. I just appreciate the time and attention both Donna and Michael have given my sweet little girl. It's because of their knowledge, skills, and care that I am seeing great improvements in my puppy's behavior. They make training fun for our furry-loved ones. Whenever I pick my puppy up after a day's training, Michael gives me a report on how she did for the day and even providing suggestions to work on at home. You can tell that this is not just a business for them, but it's their passion. You can be assured that they will treat your puppy as one of their own. Thank you Donna and Michael for all of do and have done for my little girl!"
