So our Toby did a 2 week board and train with Farren. Prior to going through training it was a…read morereal chore to walk him and control him on a leash. He now walks beside me without pulling and heels when commanded. I will continue this training with tools I have received from Farren. He also comes when recalled off leash. He places in the house and needs limited commands to stay. I know I must continue diligently with what he has learned however what a huge difference her training has made. He also barks less.

I was referred to Farren at Board N Behave by a friend, and I'm so glad I reached out! From our…read morefirst call, Farren was professional, knowledgeable, and truly listened to my concerns. My Chinese Crested, Hooper, had previous training but was still struggling with reactivity and socialization. I appreciated that Farren didn't push an expensive board and train--she assessed Hooper personally and offered private sessions that fit my budget. After just one session, I already saw progress. Over five sessions, both Hooper and I were trained--because we all know training the human is just as important! A month later, I adopted another dog, Bodie, and brought both pups to Farren's daycare to continue Hooper's socialization. We also did additional public training sessions, which were incredibly helpful. Hooper is now more confident and manageable! Farren has also been working directly with Bodie, helping him learn basic obedience and improve his behavior--especially with things like staying safely in the car instead of bolting into the street. His progress has been amazing. Farren is not just a great trainer, but also understands dog behavior on a deeper level. Her facility is clean, organized, and I fully trust leaving my dogs in her care. I highly recommend Board N Behave for training, daycare, and/or boarding!

Chantel is absolutely AMAZING!…read more I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Chantel! We sent our Sheepadoodle, Ron, to her for training and the results were absolutely incredible. Ron LOVED her -- and if you know Ron, you know he has a very big personality, is extremely social, confident, independent, and pretty sure the world revolves around him. When Ron came home, he was like a different dog -- but still completely RON, which was so important to us. Chantel didn't change his happy, outgoing personality or break his spirit. She simply gave him structure, confidence, and the tools to actually listen and make better choices. The difference in his behavior was immediate and honestly blew us away. Chantel did an absolutely amazing job with him, and it was obvious how much time, patience, and genuine care she put into his training. Even more importantly, it was obvious how much Ron absolutely adored and trusted her. There are a lot of people who call themselves dog trainers, but finding someone you completely trust with your dog -- someone who truly understands dogs and genuinely cares about them -- is something special. Chantel is that person. We could not be happier with Ron's experience or his results. Worth every penny and then some. I would recommend Chantel without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional dog trainer. Five stars honestly isn't enough! -- Ron's very impressed family

We enrolled our 1-year-old German Shepherd, Forrest, in Off Leash K9's 2-week Board & Train…read moreOn-Leash Program, and we could not be happier with the results! Before training, Forrest was a very playful and excitable pup who struggled with focus and discipline. He was easily distracted, didn't consistently follow commands, and had trouble behaving appropriately around children and other dogs. After spending two weeks with Elaine, our amazing trainer, Forrest came home a completely transformed dog! He's now obedient, focused, and confident -- even in high-distraction environments like parks and public places. He mastered six core commands and continues to respond beautifully to them at home. Elaine truly is a "dog whisperer." She's local (Murrieta), which made drop-off and pickup super convenient, and she went above and beyond to keep us updated. We received daily videos and photos showing Forrest's progress -- we looked forward to them every day and loved watching his transformation in real time. We are so impressed with Elaine's skill, patience, and dedication. Forrest is still the same silly, lovable dog we adore, but now he's also well-mannered, obedient, and an absolute joy to be around. Thank you, Elaine and Off Leash K9, for giving us the best version of our pup!

After researching I decided this was where my doggo Mini Schnauzer Sigma needed to be with. I opted for the home training with a year of group sessions that follow after. 5 in home sessions with Ryan changed the world for our doggo. The trainer is very professional and is like a dog whisperer haha! He makes you feel at ease with taking control of your pets behaviors before your pet tries to take control of your home. Don't get me wrong my pet is adorable but training he is very much more adorable without chewing on my furniture and running off as I used to chase him lol Prices are very affordable compared to others in town which was a plus!

Raymond's training program was very thorough & we are very grateful for this program. Our dog Koda was 10 months old when he started the training program he had aggressive tendencies & would always require being carried into his kennel at night time for bed. When it came to walking our dog that wasn't even an option he wouldn't let us put a leash on his neck. After the training program with Raymond for five weeks, we saw significant changes. We were actually able to take him on walks & put a leash on him. When given a command he walks into his kennel without any issues. We highly recommend Raymond's training program.

Don't Believe the False Facebook Posts - Epic Dog Academy Is the Real Deal…read more I need to share my experience because there's a lot of misinformation going around about Epic Dog Academy. If you've seen those Facebook posts linking them to animal abuse - please, don't believe them. I fell for those rumors myself at first, and I want to make sure no one else makes the same mistake. I had signed my dog, Obi-Wan, up for the two-week training program and was so excited. But right after I told a friend, she sent me a Facebook group filled with terrible claims about EDA. I panicked and immediately called to cancel. Vincent, the owner, was incredibly understanding and patient. He explained that all those claims were false and even showed me proof - including records exposing the people behind the posts as having serious legal and credibility issues, but even though I already paid and signed all the paperwork - he still immediately refunded me my payment to give me time to do additional research. This is something he could have pushed back on but didn't, which really showed me what a kind and understanding business this was. Even so, I made sure to do my own research before forming any opinions. What I found was truly alarming: the main individual behind that Facebook group has a documented history of serious issues, including animal cruelty charges (all public record). His daughter once briefly worked with Vince - the owner of Epic Dog Academy - many years ago at a completely separate business. Shortly after, Vince left to establish Epic Dog Academy with his wife, Olivia. To be clear, the two individuals who now run that Facebook group have no real connection to Epic Dog Academy. The false claims they're spreading about the owner are completely unfounded and unsupported by any evidence, plus most of the negative comments appear to come from people associated with them. Once I realized the truth, I re-enrolled Obi-Wan - this time in their day training program. I drop him off in the morning and pick him up in the afternoon. It gave me total peace of mind to see him daily, and I can confidently say that not only is he perfectly fine - he's thriving. The results have been beyond my expectations. Obi-Wan listens better than ever, he's happier, and he actually gets excited to go every morning. Erin, his trainer, is absolutely phenomenal. She's patient, knowledgeable, and keeps me updated every day with photos and progress reports through their app. Christy at the front desk is another gem - her warmth and understanding make every drop-off and pick-up a breeze. Every single person I've interacted with at Epic Dog Academy truly loves what they do, and it shows. They treat every dog like their own. I can say with complete confidence that my dog is safe, happy, and receiving the best possible training here. Please do yourself a favor - don't let false online rumors stop you from giving EDA a chance. Check things out for yourself. I'm so glad I did, because Epic Dog Academy has completely transformed my dog's behavior and confidence. It's been worth every single penny (and I signed up for the Honor program!) I have given EDA permission to share my number with anyone who is hesitant to sign up. I'd be happy to share my experience with you if needed. -- Pictures of Obi-Wan were sent to me through the EDA app during his day training!

I was nervous and didn't know what to do, so I reached out to Epic Dog Academy. They scheduled a same-day consultation, which immediately made me feel supported. Sookie started the Honor Roll Program the following week. Throughout her training, her trainer Erin kept me consistently updated on Sookie's progress. Toward the end of the two weeks, Erin recommended keeping Sookie a little longer because she needed some extra help -- and I truly appreciated that honesty and care. If Epic Dog Academy didn't genuinely care, they could have easily sent her home, especially with the holidays coming up, but instead they did what was best for Sookie. I picked Sookie up about a week ago and, to be honest, I was nervous about bringing her home. Erin scheduled our in-home training session just three days after pickup, and even checked in with us after Sookie's first day home to see how we were doing. While Sookie had a solid grasp of her commands, we struggled with crate training at first. During our in-home session, Erin helped us work through those issues, and since then, crating has been easy and stress-free. Epic Dog Academy -- and especially Erin -- did an amazing job with Sookie. They've given her confidence, and she no longer panics when I leave. The attentiveness, support, and care they've shown toward both Sookie and me has meant so much. We truly couldn't have done this without them. I'm so grateful for Epic Dog Academy and look forward to continuing our journey with them. I know Sookie will only continue to improve and live her best life.

It has taken me several weeks to write this review but I just cannot let others use Jennifer…read morewithout hearing from me. She had taken care of my dog and cat several years ago and when I hired her for a 3 week stay I was confident that they and my home would be well cared for. First, when I returned my home was filthy (despite the fact that I had housekeepers the week before) . The countertops in the kitchen was not clean, the floors (all laminate easily mopped) were stained and dirty, and her long hair was all over the floor in my bathroom (which she wasn't supposed to use). My housekeepers then advised that when they were there the living area was full of feces (pictures taken) -- much more than a small dog could have produced in several days. She was to administer an ear medicine on my dog and altho it appears she did, her ear was so greasy that the groomer had to cut quite bit of her beautiful long hair as it was too matted. Jennifer was to walk my dog 1-1.5 miles every day. After all this I decided to check my ring camera. At no time did she take her out for more than fifteen minutes. Impossible to walk that distance in the short period of time. No wonder the dog pooped in the house. The long haired cat was well groomed but that is the only positive thing I can say.

For nearly two years now, Brian has been an invaluable partner in my journey with not just one, but two service dogs--my fully trained service dog and my current service dog in training. What sets Brian apart is his profound expertise and his unwavering honesty. He has an incredible gift for assessing a dog's natural aptitude for service work, and he's not afraid to give an honest, professional opinion about a dog's prospects. This kind of integrity is crucial for any handler. Beyond his technical skill, Brian has been instrumental in building my confidence as a handler. He has an encouraging, clear teaching style that empowers you to trust your own abilities and form an even stronger bond with your dog. If you're looking for a dedicated, honest, and truly skilled professional to guide you through service dog training or any other training needs, I cannot recommend Brian and Temecula Best Friends Dog Training highly enough.

We feel like we are set up for success in having a really well behaved dog and are more confident in our ability to continue training.

He really has a special love for dogs and you can tell that dogs feel the same way about him.
