After a meeting with Bar, he provided guidance on the overall training plan and boarding her for 30 days. She came back like a new dog with her new commands! Bar did a wonderful job spending time with her over that time, gave progress photos and video on where she's at within her training. I'd highly recommend Bar for training your dog! He's communicative and provides guidance to the owners as well to be successful on reinforcing the training as well! Thank you Bar!

Short version: 100% YES, if you're considering professional dog training, Bar is the way to go…read more Longer version: After a long search, I kept coming back to Bar's reviews on multiple platforms, and I'm so glad I did. We rescued our puppy, Bailey, at 10 weeks old and realized as she grew that we wanted professional help, especially to build her confidence. From our first in-person meeting, Bar was attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in our goals. We decided the board and train program was the best fit, and although it was hard leaving Bailey at first, Bar's beautiful property and regular updates gave us complete peace of mind. When we reunited, we were amazed by Bailey's progress. Her obedience, leash heeling, and responsiveness exceeded our expectations. Just as importantly, Bar spent time training *us* so we could confidently continue reinforcing everything at home. A few days later, when we returned for an in-person session, Bailey completely lit up when she saw Bar, running straight to him for affection. That moment said it all. We're incredibly grateful and look forward to continuing (and possibly advancing) her training. **Highly recommend Bar's K9 Dog Training.**

Unfortunately, the current Zoom Room ownership is atrocious and I would strongly suggest finding…read moreanother place to train your dog. I had been going to Zoom Room for over 2 years and had experienced some different trainers, some of whom were good, some bad. Finally, there was some consistency with an excellent trainer, Cari, and so I purchased an annual membership. Over the past year I had worked with Cari, who was fantastic. She had an amazing talent for knowing what you and your dog could handle and needed and she prioritized safety and the overall experience. Unfortunately, Cari left recently, and I have to imagine the owner had something to do with it, as clearly this location is horrendously mismanaged. There was a period of time where there were no classes available, and we were never told why. Then randomly they announced "new management" and brought in a trainer who had been shadowing Cari for just a few weeks as the new Manager and solo trainer. I had briefly worked with this trainer and I was not very impressed with his training skills. I did not feel like I would be making progress with my dog any more at this location, so I contacted the owner Diego asking for a partial refund. He talked disrespectfully about his previous employees, ranted about me not giving people a try, and raised his voice, berating me about "what if you signed up for a membership at a yoga studio and your favorite instructor left" among other things. During this rant he also shared that the trainers they get are untrained and uncertified and they go through some basic training before coming on board which does NOT inspire confidence in the future of this location. I have NEVER been spoken to in such a disrespectful, aggressive way as a customer. This franchise is clearly not well run. While they might find gems of trainers like Cari from time to time, you might also get stuck with untrained people.. or possibly even NO instructors. As another review mentions, consistency in trainer is absolutely critical to progress with your dog, and while I understand there is some employee turnover expected over time, this location has experienced too much turnover to be acceptable. I truly did love my experience with Zoom Room while Cari was there but now I highly recommend you save your money. It's not worth spending that much money to potentially have to keep working with different, random, possibly untrained employees and be talked down to by the franchise owner who really needs to hone his business and customer service skills.

She also worked on his place command, and now he stays calmly on his bed until released, which has made having guests over so much easier. One of the things that really stood out was how Jennifer took the time to get to know us as well as our dog. She found out we have a horse background and used that to our advantage--explaining training techniques in ways that made total sense to us. She gave examples that tied into the horse world, which made the process so much more intuitive and familiar. She also helped address Maverick's excitement around other dogs, which stems from his strong herding instincts. With Jennifer's guidance, he's now calm and focused on us. Jennifer is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and truly cares about setting both the dog and owner up for long-term success. We're so thankful for the transformation she helped us achieve with Maverick!

We worked with Charlie and Hudson when she was first a puppy and learned a lot of basics, we returned to help create a system where our dog has an expectation of what happens when people come over, so she doesn't have to feel so anxious all the time. K9 University helps train us for our dog, and honestly helped me understand her so much better. We are leaving for an extended period of time and I was so nervous about what to do with our dog, but then I found out that K9 University ALSO does board and train! This eased my mind so so much. I couldn't think of anyone better or more skilled to watch and train our dog while we are away. I can't wait to see her updates and just know that she will be mentally and physically occupied in a productive manner! We love k9 University!!!! Will always come back and will always sing the praises of this great group of people.

I saw the excellent reviews on Yelp for this place so I decided to try it. Soooo happy I did. Before Lisa accepts your canine, she does an interview to see if your dog will get along with other dogs. Excellent idea! She gets detailed information regarding vaccinations/neuter/spay. Excellent idea! Lisa has two daycare locations close to each other (one for smaller dogs and one for larger dogs.) While Jax is only 28 pounds, he acts like he is a 75 pound big dog. Lisa felt it was best Jax joined the large dog club which was great! First day at daycare, I dropped off Jax and returned to my car tearing up a little bit. WHAT?! I guess dogs are your kids! Anywhooooo.......Jax loved it! He could not get enough of this place. Bob is in charge of the large dog club and he is absolutely awesome! Bob plays with them, takes short video clips and texts the videos to the parents. I would drop off Jax every morning and Bob could not open the door fast enough. Even when it rains, they have fixed up the garage just for the dogs. Outside, there is a pool, slide leading up to an enclosed trampoline, and a running area. It is truly a dog's paradise! Although we recently moved, we will ALWAYS remember Newbury Bark with Bob and Lisa! and of course Terri Jo! :) Thank you kindly for taking excellent care of Jax. I know Jax misses everyone! So if you are looking for an excellent doggie daycare/daycamp, look no further, try Newbury Bark. Fair and reasonable prices, very accommodating. I still watch the videos! :)

I want the best for my puppies, so I asked so many different people where and how they trained their dogs. I received a few suggestions, but decided to do my own search...and I'm glad I did. Leo (Owner) and his amazing team of trainers TRULY care about the pups they train. Leo came to my home and wanted to meet me and my pups before I had to decide on making any decisions. After sitting down with him for about half an hour, I knew I found what I was looking for: Someone who wants me to have healthy and happy dogs. I signed up for the in-home training at first which is Leo coming to the house and training me on how to train my puppies (Archie and Charlie just turned 6 months and started with Leo and his team when they were 4.5). Very quickly, I realized I could not handle training both these puppies the way they needed to be trained. I discussed with Leo and decided to do a Board & Train. I like the schedule because I get to take the puppies on the weekends to spend time with me. Don't get me wrong, you NEED to train your pups on the weekends, but it's worth it and FUN. Archie has become the Puppy King (no offense to other puppies or their owners )). Charlie has a lot more energy, but has improved immensely! Leo's trainers are so caring. I feel my dogs get love with their training when they're not with me, and I couldn't ask for more. I see their excitement whenever I visit about improvements and milestones that Archie and Charlie achieved. They gleam with as much pride as I do. I honestly don't know where my pups OR I would be without the help of this AMAZING Team! If I could give 10 stars out of 5 stars, I would!
