First
First : The person on the phone said that it was “Nineteen Ninety five”. Wasted my time, talked and talked , when i finally got to the check out it was 1,995. I should’ve probably known that …. that’s not that big of a deal just wasted my time, but what is really a big is that after i told them I wasn’t interested cuz it was expensive they continued to called so many times a day. It’s unprofessional and WEIRD.

I had a great experience with Dog Academy. The lessons were clear, informative, and easy to follow. I learned helpful training techniques, how to understand dog behavior, and how to respond appropriately in different situations. The program gave me more confidence and helped me become a more responsible and knowledgeable dog owner. I would recommend Dog Academy to anyone who wants to improve their dog-training skills and build a stronger relationship with their dog.

Talked with two lovely people today in regards to training my dog. Lauren Hawkins did such an amazing job with setting me up with training. She is so sweet and helped me feel better about my dog and his behavior. Nic was also very helpful with my platinum welcome. He is so nice and fun. He gave me so many tips that I’m going to start using today! Can’t wait to start my training

Scamming people over Service Dogs
They offer Psychiatric Service Dog Training but are not educated on service dogs or service dog laws!!
I have no clue how they train for other things, but the fact that they are so uneducated about service dogs and still offer the training to ANYONE is very upsetting. Service dogs are for people who are disabled; they are task-trained to mitigate a person's disabilities. They aren't an accessory to take everywhere with you. Having a Dr. approve the tasks trained does not make it ok or appropriate. The biggest red flag was being told at the end of the PSD training that my dog would be registered. Service animal registries are not a thing..

If I could give this company less than one star, I would.
If I could give this company less than one star, I absolutely would. I had two online sessions, which were pretty much a waste of my time and money. Then when I had an in person trainer, they just had me sit with my dog the entire training and that was all. The next session that I was supposed to have, the trainer ghosted me. No call. Nothing. They try to talk you into the “cheapest” package— most sessions for least amount. This is a scam. When I asked for a refund for my remaining sessions (as I’m very dissatisfied to say the least), I was told that wasn’t possible. Don’t waste your time with this company. There are many great trainers out there.

Hi Theresa,
We’re truly sorry that your training sessions did not provide the value, guidance, or follow-through you expected. Being left without communication for a scheduled session is especially frustrating, and we understand why this experience caused you to lose confidence in our services.
We would appreciate the opportunity to review what happened and work with you toward a fair resolution and a positive path forward. A member of our team will reach out directly to discuss the available options with you.

Very Good Instruction
I appreciated that you cannot move on with incorrect answers on the tests. This is a very important course and requires you to be aware of public, self, and dog safety. It also taught me what my future service dog and I need to work on.

Thank you for this kind review! We're so glad the course's built-in checks helped the material really sink in, public, self, and dog safety are too important to rush through.
It's wonderful to hear it also gave you clarity on what you and your future service dog will need to work on together. Wishing you both an amazing journey ahead!

I had a disappointing experience
I had a disappointing experience with this dog training company. The trainer recommended a miniature e-collar for my one-year-old pup, Chloe, and several sessions were left unfinished but marked as complete. Unfortunately, by the time I raised my concerns, I was outside the refund window, so no refund was offered.
They did offer to match me with another trainer to finish Chloe’s training, which I appreciate, but I ultimately didn’t feel comfortable continuing with the company.
I’m hopeful that others have better experiences, and I hope the company takes this feedback as an opportunity to improve communication, follow-through, and training recommendations.

Hi Rachael,
We’re very sorry that Chloe’s training experience did not meet your expectations. We understand how concerning it must have been to see unfinished sessions marked as complete and to feel uncomfortable with the training recommendation provided.
Although we’re glad an alternative trainer was offered, we respect your decision not to continue. Your feedback regarding communication, follow-through, and training recommendations is valuable and will be shared with our team as we work to improve.

it operates primarily as an aggressive digital marketing platform rather than a traditional local training school. It is heavily criticized for functioning as a middleman that charges high prices for generic virtual courses and low-quality localized contractor matching. They constantly harass me by calling from fake numbers each time.

you promised a perfect dog, after training at a cost of $1700, the dog is at best somewhat better on a leash. still aggressive and loud, the very things you said would be corrected. trainer was nice but said "i dont know why they tell people that", called for a refund of at least some of my money but was told no refunds, we promised nothing, so dont waste your time or money with this so called trainer service. its crap

This was not worth the money at all
This was not worth the money at all. I have already found all of the info presented and possible steps to take for free on YouTube. I was hoping for something more in depth. I’m frustrated that I spent $50.
There was a paragraph that didn’t even belong in the text “ Now that we’ve addressed the temperament, energy and physical characteristics of the German shepherd, it’s time to look at some of the most frequently asked questions about this breed.” - my course wasn’t about German Shepards! It was about curbing reactivity.

Excellent Start to Dog Academy Experience
Earlier today I was researching dog training options and Dog Academy stood out as a great fit with excellent reviews. In just minutes after completing the online questionnaire, Josh of the Dog Academy team reached out to discuss. I was impressed with the response time and also his taking the time to walk me through Dog Academy offering. We spent time talking specifics of mine and my dog's situation, and Josh tailored his recommendations for training based on learning more about us & what we were looking for. By the end of the call, Josh had set up a preliminary training plan, created my account, and connected me to a 1:1 call with a coordinator to schedule next steps. I appreciated Josh's personalized and well thought through training approach, and am looking forward to working with Dog Academy. Can't speak highly enough of initial onboarding & Josh & Laura walking us through and setting us up with our first appointment.

Learning to Speak My Dog's Language
I've been working with my trainer for about four months, and I can't say enough good things about this academy. My biggest "aha" moment has been learning the psychology behind dogs and how to actually communicate with my dog instead of just expecting her to listen.
I adopted a pit bull mix, that’s now 2 yo and who thinks everyone is her best friend. She's always been sweet, but she had no idea how strong she was! It's been so fun watching her grow. She even stopped chasing her tail now that she's getting the mental stimulation she needed. She's happier, has so much more self-control, and honestly is even more fun to be around.
The best part is that this training has taught me just as much as it's taught my dog. I highly recommend it!

Thank you so much, Renee, for sharing your experience! Reading about your journey with your sweet pit bull mix truly made our day.
We love that one of your biggest takeaways has been learning to "speak your dog's language." Understanding canine psychology and building clear communication is such a powerful part of creating a lasting bond, and it's wonderful to hear how much confidence and joy it's brought to both of you.
Your pup's transformation, from learning self-control to no longer chasing her tail thanks to the mental stimulation and training, is incredible! It's amazing what can happen when dogs are given the guidance and enrichment they need to thrive.
We're especially grateful that you pointed out something we believe wholeheartedly: dog training is just as much about empowering owners as it is about teaching dogs. Thank you for trusting Dog Academy to be part of your journey and for recommending us to others. We wish you and your best friend many more happy adventures together!
