Hello big and small dog mamas and papas!!! We are on our 3rd week of training and finished our…read morefirst pack meet up at Inclined. I cant rave enough about this place and their program! We have done training before with other known companies, which has given my big boy a great foundation (as well as myself, because lets be honest us humans are really the ones that need the training). But Inclined is a whole different level! The trainers invest and want to make your fur baby succeed on all levels. So your dog isn't social, they will make space for that, your dog isn't friendly, they will make space for that, your dog doesn't listen, they will make space for that... the space is done in baby steps, which allows your fur baby to succeed. They are also solid in the communication area. Which is huge to me. All I can say is do your part and invest in your animals, its your responsibility as a pet parent. Why not get connected with a program that will train your animal as well as you the pet parent. My experience has been nothing but positive, its one of the best investments I have made in my dog and that is priceless!

Keith and his team are incredible--they don't just train your dog, they teach you how to understand and work with your dog. The six-week program gave me the confidence and tools I needed, and Ziggy has made amazing progress. We can finally enjoy calmer walks, and I feel so much more in control. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real results!

Edited to Add: Shortly after the business owner's response to my review, I received an email…read morestating that Yelp had received a complaint about it, in an attempt to have it removed. *** PLEASE READ *** We met with Jake in Nov 2024 for an assessment for a pup we had just rescued in Oct 2024 that has severe anxiety from egregious physical trauma. When Jake modeled how to put our pup in the crate, he had her hanging w/her 2 front feet off the ground (choking), & he then proceeded to knee her into the crate. Yes, he knee'd her. When we brought out our existing dog, he actually hit him in the face! My family & I were totally stunned. I very sternly told him that we do not hit our animals in this house under any circumstances. He was extremely dismissive. This was my first experience with a private trainer & did not know what to expect, nor did I know much about the world of dog training. As the weeks went by I did reach out to Jake again because we felt desperate & the idea of what he was selling sounded like it would be good for our dogs' needs. However, I could not get past the first encounter, nor the pit in my stomach. I, personally, did not trust Jake to treat our animals with kindness & respect that they deserved. The other off-putting thing that Jake shared while he was at our home for the evaluation was that he once put his dog in down-stay & then forgot about her. He fell asleep & awoke the next morning to find her still in down-stay, but had soiled herself. He was very proud of the obedience she had shown. I just couldn't help but feel awful for her, and continually thought that this was not a story I, personally, would be bragging about. I saw how he treated my dogs on our very first meet, I absolutely could not move forward whatsoever. I feel ashamed that I did not stop him in the middle of the evaluation. I should have. I should have asked him to leave & I did not. That haunts me. Our rescue pup is doing AMAZINGLY well with an AMAZING facility called RFRD!!! She is SO happy, calm, & every day learning how to be a calm pup despite her traumatic beginning. Their custom, well-rounded program, with honest experts, has changed the life of our pup, as well as our own. Harnessing Potential was not for our family, nor for our pups. Jake did not treat our animals with kindness or respect in our presence.

I began exploring all kinds of programs with various trainers around the idea and Primal Canine stood apart from the get go because: (1) Erin is an amazing, kind and professional person to work with. She is prompt, yet not pushy. She worked with the facts and empathy for our needs and budget to help us get to the right program. (2) The trainer we were assigned to was forthcoming, efficient and excellent with the training. He was clear with what we could expect and what the constraints were. (3) Primal Canine is local to where we live, and we really preferred to go with a nearby small business, as both one we could support and build a relationship with, and for convenience. Within the 3 weeks of board and train our puppy went through, he came back with solid foundations and ability to understand and respond positively to basic commands. Primal's role does not end with the program - they constantly support with our needs and questions even after graduating from B&T, and actually offer a lifetime of resources to help us grow and flourish with our new best friend. We could not be happier we went with Primal and would recommend them to anyone who is looking to build a rewarding relationship with their dogs. Special shout-out to Erin and the trainer we worked with - you've been amazing to our family. Thank you!

Operation Freedom Paws is nothing short of life‑changing. Their team pours genuine compassion, expertise, and dedication into every client and every dog. They don't just train service dogs -- they rebuild confidence, restore independence, and help people rediscover joy in their daily lives. The level of care, respect, and individualized support they provide is extraordinary. If you're looking for an organization that truly transforms lives, Operation Freedom Paws stands in a league of its own. I want to truly say a special thanks to Mary, Janet, Ramon Steve, Kathy, and the rest of the amazing OFP staff

When I adopted Bailey from rescue organization, I found out that even though she's an adult dog she…read moredidn't respond to basic commands such as come, sit. We went though a frustrating period of time where she was constantly doing something I didn't want her to do but I couldn't communicate with her effectively. Unsure how to communicate to this new member of the family who's already timid and scared even after several books, I attended Diana's adult training class to "give it a try" and I was completely blown away by what we got out of it. First, Diana was incredibly patient in understanding the unique personality and background of Bailey. and was flexible in tailoring the training as it fits. On top of that, I'm also blown away by Diana's depth of knowledge, she is incredibly encouraging and has made me a better fur baby parent too by teaching me how to read their body language, how they process distracting new information and answers all the questions I had as a new anxious fur baby parent. I highly recommend Diana for animal training as she really takes it up to the next level, and showed me how to leverage the training as the bridge of communication and form a bond as Bailey increases her confidence level. I'm happy to report that's exactly what happened and I couldn't be happier.
