    Twice now we've waited at the counter to check out for over 20 mins. Decided to leave and go elsewhere, won't be going back.

    It's ok, but it smells so bad in there, the place is really stinky even for a pet store. Also, the fish tanks are always a hot mess

    I have two little dogs (4 & 8) and just rescued a 3rd puppy (already 40 pounds who could squash the…read moretwo 10 pounders) and knew it was time to get training. Being so sick of living in a circus constantly screaming and being upset with my dogs was a terrible way to live. So, naturally, I started yelping dog trainers. Clint had a number to text, AMAZING. and was super responsive unlike all of the others that I had contacted. He followed up when I forgot and came to the house to do a free at home consultation and we signed that day for all 3. It's been 2 sessions (an hour a piece with each dog) and they are NIGHT AND DAY. it's amazing how much progress he was able to get even after one session. If you're on the fence about training, just text or call Clint and make it happen- you won't regret it.

    E-Collar Technologies - Hard Plastic Receiver Arm Broken Off

    I purchased the K9-800 K9 Handler 1 Mile Trainer with the 33" Bungee Collar from E-Collar…read moreTechnologies in May 2020 for my Sable German Shepherd imported from the Czech Republic. For 5-years the system worked incredibly well, especially well for a dog with a thick, weather-resistant double coat designed for working outdoors. GSDs fur features a dense, softer undercoat for insulation and a harsher, straight outer coat that lies flat against the body. Finding an e-collar that was compatible with her fur type took trying out at least half a dozen brands, before falling in love with E-Collar Technologies, Inc. The reliability, range, and overall performance were excellent, and it became an essential part of safely working and handling my dogs. In May 2025, I needed to replace the Educator Quick Snap Bungee Collar after the quick snap feature actually prevented what could have been a serious injury to my dog while using the collar with a metal lead outside in our front yard. That incident was 100% user error on my part, and the quick-release design likely saved my dog from harm. Unfortunately, since replacing the original collar, the quality and durability of the replacement Quick Snap Bungee Collars has been extremely disappointing. We have now gone through 3 replacement collars because the bungee portion stretches out to the point that the collar no longer fits properly or functions effectively. A loose e-collar is not only ineffective, but potentially dangerous because consistent contact is critical for proper operation. Additionally, repeatedly changing out the collars has caused wear and damage to the hard plastic receiver attachment points. Over time, one of the receiver arms ultimately broke off completely, further impacting the functionality and reliability of the system during use. We will now have to replace the receiver for $125 (to further utilize the training device that originally cost over $350. I still believe the original K9-800 system itself is one of the best training tools available, which makes this even more frustrating. The original collar lasted nearly 5 years without issue, but the newer replacement collars have not held up remotely the same way. I truly hope E-Collar Technologies reviews the durability and quality control of the replacement Quick Snap Bungee Collars because the decline in longevity and performance has been significant. From further research, it's been determined that the Educator Quick Snap Bungee Collars (colors: black and red) are no longer being manufactured entirely in-house, but a few years back transitioned to a different manufacturing company providing the bungee quick snap mechanism for E-Collar technologies in the colors black & red - I've been promised that ALL other colors are 100% made in-house, and should not wear, tear, and breakdown like the past 3-collars we've purchased. I highly recommend this company & their products EXCEPT the black & red Educator Quick Snap Bungee Collars.

At this point (6/8/26) I question whether they are even still in business. Repeated hang ups on phone system, repeated heat tickets with no response/confirmation lead me to believe they are either going out of business or just absolutely do not give a "hoot" about their customers. Even something as simple as an address change is - at best - difficult, more likely impossible. Do some research and go with their high quality competition...this company is the absolute worst at simple follow though. Don't get me wrong, I love the product, but - to me - customer service still means something - to them, not so much. Follow up (forgot to include in original post): I hate this company - my quality of life took a hit having to deal/try to deal with them.

    We have a 9 month old yellow Labrador retriever who likes to pull you everywhere on her leash…read more Constantly barks and cries at everyone and constantly greets everyone by jumping all over them. We tried a bark collar and that helped some with barking but the rest it did not correct. So I was getting a lot of heat from family members seeing this lab pulling me around when taking her outside for potty breaks, etc. and my constantly yanking her back by her collar and yelling at her for commands that did not work, not a safe or good thing to be doing. So we reached out to Lee's Dog Training for suggestions and shortly gave our Labrador to Lee's Dog Training to get control of our dog. Well instantly upon arrival Lee came out to greet us and took over with the leash provided. Shortly Lee installed his training collar on our Labrador and it was like a light switch was switch, amazing results in listening instantly. We went ahead and left our Labrador for a week and within 3 days Lee's called implied our Labrador was ready to be picked up, she was amazing on her abilities to learn and follow commands given. So anxiously my wife and I went to pick up our Labrador from Lee and upon arrival, Lee's showed my wife some things our Lab has learned and worked with my wife on how to take the leash and continue training at home. Well once at home all we can say is that this isn't the same girl anymore, her personality came out better, she listens, she performs to commands and she no longer pulls me around and she only greets guests once we release her to welcome them with "NO JUMPING" on them anymore. Our guests are amazed by our Lab performance and manners, they state this is not the lab they got to know and that the money was well spent at Lee's Dog Training. We would without a doubt recommend Lee's Dog Training to anyone who is looking for that Professional Trainer. We give Lee's (5) stars for their abilities, care and patience shown . Terry & Fay E.

    Please people for your dogs mental and physical health stay away from Lee's dog training. Lee's…read moredog training consists of drilling commands into your dogs head with a pinch collar in just one week ( witch can be a physical and mental strain on your dog like it was on mine) and then you have to fishish his job for him . I have reached out to Lee's dog traing about my concerns of my dog and he said that my dog did not look bad and that he is not listening to commands at home because I am too soft on him and that my dog being physically scared of the commands is my dog challenging me . I told him I was not happy and I wanted my money back and now he will not answer my phone calls or text. My dog Leo went to the vet 2/7/2025 his wieght was 54.20lbs. He went to Lee's dog training 2/8/2025 for training and one week of board we picked Leo up on 2/21/2025. Took Leo to the vet and is no now 49.80lbs after being home for a few days and being fed so at pickup he was probably lower than that. Which he is going to jump on here saying he fed my dog that he gave me a almost empty bag of food back. But pictures and weight don't lie. The colar in the picture was tight on Leo at drop off now I can put my whole hand between his neck and collar. I have all the paper work to prove all of this. So please just stay away from Lee's dog traing and spread the word.
