This place should be out of business. I took my great Dane there when I lived in Florida when it…read morewas under Von Asgard canine. I didn't get my dog back for two months because they were hiding an injury because the owner Linda likes to beat dogs. My dog went there for behavior training. She came out with trauma and more aggressive than she was before, what was really jarring to me as as I pulled away and she saw the owner Linda she wanted to attack her. Unfortunately, my dog is no longer here due to the fact, she passed away from bone cancer. I still feel guilty to this day that I ever sent my dog there and I still feel I should be owed a refund. I'm sure This woman owes plenty of people money. She should not be doing this as a business. She's a disgusting human being and a Ripoff and a scam artist. She had many dogs there in pens in the sun and I didn't think about it. I assumed no one would do this job or business and mistreat animals. This was 10 years ago and I'm still upset about bringing my dog there. I saw the owner was arrested she should lose everything she has. Rest in peace Cinder block

Our Training Journey with Advance Canine Developments Mark,…read moreHayley, Erica, and Ali, we wanted to take this time to express our heartfelt thanks for the exceptional service and dedication that all of you provided in training our dogs Mio and Enzo. Your expertise, patience, and dedication put us in a positive direction with both. When Mio came to you, he was grieving with the loss of his brother Tuffy. He was sad, aggressive, and lost. You helped him gain his confidence back and let him find his happiness again with us. We brought an eight-week-old puppy, Enzo to our home about a month after the loss of our 12 year old Shih Tzu Tuffy. The puppy is adorable but has some personality quirks that have challenged us. You gave us the tools and information to help us deal with his severe separation anxiety. It is a journey for both of us. Your approach to training humans is paramount in the success and journey of training dogs. The human part of the training is to set yourself back to "zero". We had to acknowledge that we knew nothing about the training journey we were embarking on. All the dogs and experience before is just what it was ...before! We are learning to use our experience and knowledge to apply to our puppy, Enzo, and our six-year-old Mio who are different dogs with different personalities. We are grateful for the positive impact you've had on both of our dog's behavior and our overall relationship. Mio and Enzo will continue their training journey with us and an occasional refresher back at the training facility at Advanced Canine Development! Regards, Jack and Bridget Pantaleo Punta Gorda, Florida

We can't say enough about Mark and all the great trainers at ACD. My son and I found Mark online…read more I called and spoke with him and setup a consultation. We had looked into a couple trainers, but knew that our Maya needed someone special to help bring out her personality. She was a shy, scared and nervous puppy when she checked into her Board and Train ("Boot Camp" is what we called it). What a difference even just a week made! We were able to visit Maya each weekend at the Gilchrist park/Farmers Market walk. Every time you could tell how much she had changed. Mark even took time with our son Hayden to coach him on how to work with her and his skills of handling her in the show ring. Every day we received videos and photos of our baby girl. If we had questions or concerns the staff was always quick to respond. Our girl stayed an extra week, which she needed, since she's going to be such a big girl (Great Dane). We have recommended ACD to several friends and would definitely recommend you give them a try if you have a dog that needs some help with manners.
