Cheryl is a phenomenal resource and the depth and breadth of information and expertise that she…read moreprovides is second to none. She is masterful in her delivery of training but al so is able to leverage her network to provide the most holistic version of complete animal training and care. I have worked with dozens of trainers but have yet to run into someone who is as compassionate and helpful as Cheryl. Give her a call and schedule time with her. It would be worth every penny if you care for your dog as much as I do.

None of them had the skills and the knowledge that Cheryl has. She made sure I understood what she was doing and why. I learned so much from her. It is very apparent that she is well educated in her field. Cheryl gave me the tools I need to continue working with Gracie so she doesn't slip back to unwanted behaviors. Gracie and I are always happy to see her walk through the door. She is simply the best!

Prior to enrolling in Allegiant K9's 3-week board and train, our 9 month old GSD Obi was difficult…read moreto handle on-leash,100% unable to go off-leash, distracted by everything, and took a little too much enjoyment in chasing the cat at every opportunity. It's been two weeks since he graduated and we feel as if we were brought back a new dog (but who still had all the wonderful personality quirks that he did before leaving). I never thought I'd ever have a dog that I could let off-leash without worry of them running away... but now we do! I love that we can now confidently take him with us where ever we go, regardless of the social distractions, and know that he'll be a star pup. I also love that if we have issues in the future, AC and Dave are just a call or text away, whether we simply need advice or more intense instruction in a follow-up session. I cannot recommend Allegiant K9's 3-week board and train enough. It was worth every penny... and the cat agrees! :)

Dave has helped me with both of my golden retrievers - Brewster (age 9) and Dutch (age 2). Dave…read morefirst helped me when Brewster was 4 years old and pulled on the leash so much that I didn't want to take him hiking with me. Dave quickly had us enjoying our hikes on leash (we now go all the time) and started Brew on off leash training. Fast forward a few years and he helped again with Dutch. When we moved to a new home and Dutch started fence fighting with the neighbor's dogs, Dave came and helped my husband and me learn how to correct Dutch properly with an e-collar. It has been about a month and we have made huge progress - we are already enjoying our backyard more with Dutch who is now ignoring the neighbor's dogs even when they jump on the fence! I can't thank Dave enough - when he started working with me and Brewster I was a first-time dog owner and didn't know much - he never judged what I hadn't done with Brewster and just focused on solutions. He also always made sure I fully understood and was comfortable with the training techniques (altering if needed). I highly recommend him!

After working with numerous trainers and getting turned away from another dog daycare (our reactive dog failed the evaluation), we ended up at Star Dog... and we are so glad we did! Andy & Jarrell have been so kind and have really helped us with BeeBee. We recommend the daycare - excellent facility & safe. The Boot Camp was amazing - they worked with BeeBee on drills all day and then trained us one-on-one! She is now calmer and so are we! The group classes are really fun too and serve a crucial role in solidifying and practising what we have learned. And the icing on the cake, the entire team helped Myrna give BeeBee her first grooming! Thank-you Andy, Jarrell & Lisa - you are very kind and excellent at what you do.

Took her out after paying and I'm quite sure that she had been holding it for hours first of all. Next, when I got her home, she drank 3 full bowls of water - so not sure when she had some last. A 3rd disappointment was that she's on allergy meds - I took them and explained to the owner that she got one per day in a pill pocket (also taken in with her). No meds were given AT ALL. Lastly, the groomer who checked me out couldn't have cared less whether she was cared for or not and had her in a tiny cage (she's 56 pounds). Afraid my days of boarding there are 2 and done.

We are Lance and Amanda Clontz and we want to share our story with you. A friend of ours had just…read moregotten a puppy for her children and the apartment complex where she was living wouldn't allow her to keep the puppy so my husband and I wound up with this beautiful little puppy. We named her Daisy May. Daisy was exactly what we needed in our lives. She is truly a blessing. We had been talking back and forth about getting Daisy to a trainer so that she could be with us at work. We just didn't want to be without her all day. So I was reading an ad on Nextdoor Rubin Center and I called the number and I spoke to Mike Letterman on the phone and wanted to meet us and Daisy. As soon and Lance and I met Mike we just knew this is where we wanted Daisy to be trained, by Mike Letterman with Down Boy Down K9. The only thing we were hung up on was being without Daisy for two whole weeks but we know this is the route we needed to take. Mike took Daisy for two weeks and brought her back to us. We were amazed with the way Daisy learned her commands - because she was a stubborn dog. While she still can be stubborn, when we tell her Sit, Here, Place and all her different commands - she listens. She just knows! Mike spent some time with Lance and I teaching us what he taught Daisy and the commands he uses and the steps we take to continue the training. Daisy is wonderful and delightful. She is loved by everyone that comes to the office. We work at American Store & Lock # 5 on South Tryon Street in Charlotte NC and our customers will come to the office to see our Daisy May - they just love her so. We call her our therapy dog. She gets so excited when people come to the office she will get up and greet them to make a friend. We are so thankful we found Mike Letterman with Down Boy Down K9. He absolutely does a phenomenal job with training dogs and when the two weeks are up, it doesn't end there. He still calls to check on Daisy and checks on us to see how things are going and if we need any help in any areas. Mike is just a great guy and he is great at what he does and he truly enjoys his work. We made a friend for life with Mike and Shannon Letterman and our life with Daisy is an absolute treasure. Thank you Mike for all you do for us and for Daisy May!
