Of course everyone needs to make money somehow but you know right off the bat that this is Molly's passion and purpose in life and she loves it. Her rates are fair and she goes above and beyond when working with you and your pup. My husband and I are really glad we found her to train our little yorkie. It's amazing what just a few sessions did for our dog and Molly uses all positive reinforcement for training. At our last session it was a great refresher to get us, as owners, feeling good about all our dog has learned already and how to continue to train her in the future. I feel so much more confident now after having Molly come into our home to help us than I did before we met her. If any questions were to come up, I know she'd help in any way and just wants the best for the dogs (and clients)! If you are looking for a trainer that is truly invested in your pup's best interest and working along side you (for better or worse) Molly is the one! If I had to do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat. Thank you Molly for everything!

My puppy took the puppy elemtenary and jr. high class that Molly offers. The location was great!…read more Molly is great, and I wasn't shy about asking questions outside of training. She has been around many dogs and knows what she is talking about. Molly helped us recognize things our dog was doing and helped us correct them in a positive way. The first class went over the basics and since we are first time dog owners the principles she taught were helpful to us. It wasn't just sit and stay, there is a lot of socialization of the dogs. The jr. high class seemed to repeat some things. However, it was good for us to remember the basics and helped us be consistent. Molly also has some playgroups which were fun when it was cold out. Plus, at those playgroups she is open for questions and she corrects any misbehaving dogs (ie...mine).

The most wonderful, caring place to leave your sweet dog. We started bringing our dog, Elsie,…read moreseveral years ago, who did not like people or strangers at all. Somehow, the atmosphere and staff made her feel welcome and safe. She loved going, and was treated like a doggy princess from day one. They cared for her as she continued to age.

We would highly recommend K9 Activity Club and Lodge in Sonoma for training, daycare and boarding…read moreyour dog. Our Blue Heeler, Raider, went from a jumpy puppy to a perfectly trained buddy! From our first meeting and throughout all our training sessions, the staff at K9 was super helpful, patient and thorough. Our first meeting was an assessment with Alicia. She was friendly and kind when meeting us and our puppy. The entire front office staff was also super helpful in scheduling our assessment and the following training appointments. They worked together perfectly to help keep us on course with all our training and follow-up information. After we decided to enroll our puppy in training, the training staff (Kobie, Ashley, Sophie and Geraldine) were fantastic!! They worked closely with us to slowly train Raider. He was introduced to other dogs, learned to heel perfectly on a leash, obey commands, come on command, and sit patiently every time we stop walking. These trainers are truly exceptional! We have heard many times how incredibly well-trained our dog is. Again, we would highly recommend K9 Activity Club and Lodge.

I called this place about a week in advance to book my dog for an overnight board, but the morning…read moreI dropped her off was told that there was no reservation. Thankfully they were able to accommodate. At drop off I was told that I would be sent pictures and updates, and that I could text or call them if needed. I never got any updates, nor a response to my message to them. Upon pickup, I was told that my dog did well and that I would get a report card and pictures of her stay. I didn't receive either. The apparent lack organization/reliability doesn't make me feel comfortable trusting my dog in their care. To top it off, my dog has had terrible diarrhea since staying there. Really wanted to like this place so pretty disappointed :/ Update: She still has diarrhea and have now seen reviews from others who's dogs have contracted Giardia here. Let's hope that's not the case

They go crazy when they see the van full of their doggy friends drive up, and we love that they come home worn out from a long walk. We have also boarded the dogs with Debbie. Most recently they stayed with her a full week. The best part is that we completely trust Debbie with our high maintenance dogs and don't have to worry about them when we are gone. She TRULY understands dogs. They get to play in her large fenced yard and go on pack walks during the week. We bring their beds to her house so they get to sleep in their own beds. We feel so grateful that we found Bark n Barrel! Thanks Debbie and crew!

There is so much more to training our dog than could be done in 3 weeks with Olga. We cannot assume…read moreour pooch will come home and be perfect on every command after only 3 weeks. She gave Murray some wonderful and necessary basics. However, training Murray's humans is even MORE important. We are the ones who must reinforce his training with diligent, consistent, and unemotional corrections and orders. It is only with our constant reminders that he WILL become more consistent himself. It takes at least 3 month for a human to break an old habit and ingrain a new one. We are using the benchmark of "a few" months before we can let up on the formality of daily, non-stop training. IT'S HARD FOR ME to remember the commands so I keep the crib sheet with me at all times. He is a stubborn boy and without Olga's help, our training was only successful 1 or 2 commands. After his boot camp, he is much calmer, more affectionate and there is less yelling (from me). We are so grateful to Olga and the methods she uses. Murray LOVES her...and so do we! Now the real work begins!

Olga is an absolute wonder. We brought our lab-mix rescue to her. Not certain of his age, but the…read morevet estimated he was about 9 months old when we brought him to her. A super sweet, loving animal, who borders on submissive in most situations. Yet there were many things that seemed to set him off - mainly our 2nd dog who's a bit hyper and skittish, which seemingly caused him to view her as the weak one of the pack who he needed to dominate. He would get very aggressive with her and occasionally with us when pushed to do something he didn't want to do. Enter Olga. She recognized that part of his problem was a lack of socialization and exposure to various situations. He needed more structure and clarity of who was boss. She worked wonders with him. She also spent several hours with us, reviewing what we needed to do to maintain the momentum and continue to have him progress. We simply can't thank Olga enough. We would enthusiastically refer her to anyone needing to improve their dog's behavior and self control. She is wonderful!
