That is, until we met Nick. He was absolutely incredible with Sadie and changed both Sadie's and our lives for the better. Within a few minutes he recognized her lack of confidence. After a few short weeks we went to pick up our girl and the change in her was amazing! She now has more confidence and is less anxious, her barking has subsided, she has great recall and we now walk together with loose leash heel. During her stay with Nick, he would send daily pictures, videos and updates keeping us connected to her and their progress together. If you are considering training for your dog, stop thinking and do it, you would be in excellent hands with Nick. He treats your dog like family! We mare beyond thrilled with our experience with Nick and New England dog training Company.

He is excited every time I pull into the driveway and he comes home tired. Bill also comes to the house for dog training. I find his advice very helpful. After only a few short weeks, he is more behaved and has not chewed on the furniture (fingers crossed). We continue to work on social interactions with humans, as our dog lives to greet everyone.

The basic puppy training was fine, but anything beyond that fell apart. If your dog has real…read morebehavioral issues--especially aggression toward other dogs--this program is useless. I went through every class and never got any meaningful help. I even reached out multiple times for private lessons and never got a single call or email back. Eric Letender's dog school feels like one big marketing machine. His solution to every problem is the same: buy a shock collar and use it for everything. Dog barking? Shock him. Dog reacting to other dogs? Shock him. That's all you get. He's only interested in training dogs that dont have any behavior issues. He even discouraged me to stop coming to classes--classes I already paid for--because my dog would bark around other dogs and show some aggression . He never worked through any of those situations with us. He would just say "Turn up that shock collar" The only things covered were extremely basic commands like sit, down, and heel. Overall, a complete disappointment and not worth the money.

The "Pop Up" class - Obility - is so much fun. The agility equipment is arranged (differently each time) around the large yard and the dogs (and people) enjoy the challenge and novelty of going over and through all of the jumps, balance boards, and tunnel. Patti and Sandy have been great. Unlike other trainers I've had, they demonstrate exercises with the dogs in the class. This is so much more helpful to observe than the trainers' fully trained dog's demonstration. Sandy and Patti are very observant about the behavior of both the dogs in the class as well as the people handling their dogs. I've learned a lot and Niko loves it. We continue classes for fun and enrichment even though he has a really reliable recall.

I almost don't even know where to start with sharing my gratitude for Sandy. My 17-year-old…read moredaughter has a one year old black lab who has been in service dog training with Sandy since she was 8 weeks old. Sandy approaches all of her sessions with us with honesty, empathy, and kindness. To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement. She takes my daughter's phone calls when she has questions, is willing to make house calls for training "emergencies", has filmed videos for my daughter's high school to help prepare students for having a service dog in school, and she has become a true friend of our family. Sandy also genuinely LOVES our dog, which we can see with every session. This puppy has honestly saved my daughter's life, and none of this would have been possible without Sandy. If you are looking for a trainer who truly loves dogs and who will take the time to genuinely get to know you as a human being, Sandy is your trainer. I cannot recommend her enough.

Mellow warmed up to him right away and gets so excited whenever she she's Tim's car pull into the drive way. Tim has given us lots of suggestions and we have noticed a lot of improvement in Mellows behavior. Tim was even nice enough to bring both of our pups to our wedding 2 weeks ago so they could celebrate with us at the reception for a while! It was so special for me to be able to get some photos with them on our big day. They were a huge hit with the guests too! Tim brought our pups home afterward and my husband and I had a great time knowing our girls were in good hands with Tim. We look forward to continuing working with Tim on socializing Mellow.

BEST Doggie Daycare/Boarding Ever!…read more This review is unbiased from someone that has been going here for over 9 + years. If you are like me, your fur babies are your family and only trust their care to the BEST, then The Executive Dog is the place you need. One of my dogs (Rocko) has been going to Executive Dog since he was 9 months old, and is now 9.5 years old. Since then we added another furbaby to our family and Scarlett has been going there as well since she was 6 months old. The Executive Dog, Inc.is the best place for our furry kids. Not only do my dogs love going there ( they bark and screech as soon as I get on the street all the way down to the lot and then try to jump out the window as soon as I pull into the parking lot). I mention going to "school" and the freakout with excitement and run around the house before waiting at the door to go! They are exhausted from such fun-filled days ~ that when they get home, they eat and then sleep until the morning. A tired dog is a good dog. I feel bad when I cannot bring them in because they love it so much. They have also taken great care of my dog with grooming, as well as overnight stays (including 2+ weeks).They always have a spot open for Rocko and Scarlett when I need it. I have boarded them for 1 night to up to 19 nights, and they absolutely adore Shelley, Ashley and Amy and the crew over at The Executive Dog. I definitely recommend this for the best Daycare, Grooming and Boarding .

We love him dearly, but we needed a break. It was very difficult for us to leave him. I found Lexi on FB and met her and Melissa. Dante instantly took to both. I felt such a sense of relief. Dante is very picky, as all GSDs are, but leaving him for 13 days, I was not happy and was willing to cancel the entire plan. Lexi assured me that Dante was in good hands, and I could not have trusted anyone more than Lexi. She literally went above and beyond what was expected. Lexi has been such a relief and comfort for us as a family. She is extremely trustworthy, loving, and such a good soul. She took such good care of our pup. As soon as we got back, we realized that we were locked out and had no keys. Lexi came within a few minutes to let us in; this was not part of what was required.
