Wish we had done it much sooner.

If you're looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about dogs,…read moreI highly recommend Joe at Ultimate Canine. We started with five in-home sessions when our Bernese Mountain Dog was five months old, then enrolled her in the two-week Stay & Train program at 7 1/2 months. The combination was exactly what we were looking for. The in-home sessions taught us how to work with our dog, and the Stay & Train helped her become reliable even in high-distraction environments. Our goal was a well-mannered giant-breed dog who would be enjoyable to live with, confident around people, and a pleasure to take anywhere. Joe helped us transform a puppy who liked to jump, play bite, and pull on the leash into a well-mannered dog with reliable obedience and excellent leash manners. A month after training, she's doing great, and the skills have held up because we continue practicing them at home. What impressed me most was Joe's approach. He genuinely loves dogs, and it shows. His training is kind, respectful, and fun, so she was always excited to work with him. He also took the time to explain why dogs behave the way they do and tailored the training to our specific goals and questions. During the Stay & Train, he proactively kept us updated on her progress, and even afterward he has remained available whenever we've needed guidance. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ultimate Canine to anyone looking for a trainer who truly invests in both dogs and their owners.

He has been prompt and has communicated very well. Our dogs absolutely love him and respond well to his training techniques. He has helped my husband and I build our arsenal of training opportunities and helped our dogs be the best they can be. We thought our one dog was reactive and he helped us figure out that the one dog was just reacting to the energy of the other dog. Mind was blown!! Our dogs are 4 and we are just now learning this. I highly recommend Ultimate Canine and that you request Mitch for your training needs. I would have him back in an instant to help with anything that comes up with our dogs!

Ruby is our rambunctious 3-month-old golden retriever and they helped her become much more self-regulating, polite, and confident--it feels like we have a much happier and secure puppy now. Madison worked with her on all the essentials--basic commands, leash manners, and appropriate behavior in new environments--but what really stood out was how thoughtfully they approached real-life situations. They helped her learn how to walk calmly, settle herself, and even confidently handle outings into stores and unfamiliar settings. They clearly understand how to help support a well-adjusted, secure dog. We feel so much more confident as owners, too. Couldn't recommend Bark Tutor Training more highly!

But if you've got new young puppers in your family, this is the place to take them. The trainers and staff are extremely helpful and knowledgeable and genuinely love all of the doggos so much. They get a very good read on their personalities in the small group setting, and mix and group dogs accordingly in different spaces while also allowing time for breaks and hydration. The space is always super clean and inviting, with big windows in the front to see the main play area. Our dog Oliver is a very assertive player, and they always make sure he gets to play his way -- even if it's with the staff! If I'm honest, our guy has probably aged out of Bark Tutor, but we keep bringing him back because it's his favorite place in the world. He's been to daycare at many other places in and out of town, but nothing gets his bottom wiggling like a day at Bark Tutor.

The first time we met Andrew, he came to our house to meet our newest editions: two 7 m/o, rescued,…read morepitbull littermates - Frankie and Ellie - who had developed some issues while running the streets but had not lost a bit of their boundless puppy energy. Andrew spent an hour or two at the house, observing the dogs and talking to us about what we were hoping to accomplish relative to what he was seeing. Before leaving, he gave us a couple of simple things to work on prior to the start of our consecutive board-and-train sessions two weeks later. Frankie and Ellie are now back with us and while they still have enormous amounts of energy, their ability to respond to commands, walk with a loose leash (zero pulling) and maintain their "place" is incredible! Selective use of the e-collars has even allowed us to redirect their attention in the midst of their loudest, most raucous roughhousing episodes. We can't recommend Andrew enough. He has a way that brings about significant behavioral changes in the dogs while building the confidence of owners: it's amazing to witness the transformations. We are so grateful that we found Andrew and would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone looking to reconnect and improve their relationship with their dog(s)!

Charlie knows all his basic commands, and astonishes people everyday with his listening skills! On top of Brad being a great trainer - we now use him for boarding as well. Since hiring Brad last winter to train Charlie as a 2 month old puppy, Charlie has gone to stay at Brad's while we've been out of town. AND HE LOVES IT SO MUCH! Brad has two dogs of his own which Charlie loves to play with, and has access to wonderful doggie door to go outside. It's like dog heaven for him. It's sad but true, that Charlie never seems to want to come home after Brad's because he loves it so much. But we can't blame him! Additionally, Brad went above and beyond during our last trip - as Charlie had a last minute surgery scheduled before we were going to be leaving the country. Brad ensured us that we wouldn't need to change our trip plans and he would do all the running around to and from the vet with Charlie, and take care of him post-op.... ISNT THAT AMAZING? Not a lot of people would probably volunteer to do that. And we felt very safe with Charlie in Brad's care. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!

Our 7-year-old German Shepherd has been attending Uptown Pup since she was 4 months old. We took…read moreher to several of Uptown's training sessions when she was younger, and she stays there for boarding when we go out of town, in addition to consistent weekly day care. She has regular bath/grooming sessions there as well. As such, we have had the opportunity to get to know most of the Uptown Team throughout the years, from the day care staff to management to trainers, and they have been nothing but caring, supportive, knowledgable and accommodating. She is always clearly happy and excited to see them, no matter which staff member it is, when we drop her off. When our dog was younger we tried out a few other day care businesses to see what was out there, and Uptown Pup was the only place where we felt our dog was cared for and received an individual focus; each Uptown staffer truly cares about the dogs' well-being and wants each one to flourish. Our dog has anxiety issues, particularly with loud noises such as thunderstorms and fireworks, and Uptown has consistently gone above and beyond to help her with this, including taking her aside from her group to relax and hang out during day care. During her boarding stays the staff has also paid extra attention to make sure she was comfortable. She also has a food allergy and a sensitive stomach, and the staff always remains cognizant of this and makes sure she avoids certain types of treats/foods when she's there. These are just a few examples of the care that Uptown takes for clients. For anyone deciding whether to entrust Uptown Pup with their day care, boarding, training or grooming needs, this probably sums it up best: we wouldn't just recommend Uptown Pup - we wouldn't take our dog anywhere else BUT Uptown Pup.

Seriously, the best dog training, which this was, helps human owners recognize how to help dogs be their best selves without using coercive, painful or negative tactics. We learned stationing, calming techniques, and loose leash walking, which has been particularly beneficial for me since I am usually solo walking 2 medium-sized, but young and energetic dogs. I've also had private lessons with Jimmy on an urgent basis. He was very, very helpful to me to change specific behaviors that were problematic when encountering other dogs. Whether you have a new dog who needs to learn basic skills or a challenging pup requiring creative, positive training, Uptown Pup is the place to start.
