Best dog trainer anywhere! Ann Baxter, with Dog Obedience Group of Jax, D.O.G.! She is top notch! I have a 1 year old European Doberman, who was so out of control. He would jump on you, bite your hands, wouldn't leave my 12 year old blue point siamese cat alone, jumped on furniture, basically a wild man! Had consultation with Ann, and loved what we heard. Brought Cooper, my Doberman, in for a meet and greet with Ann. Wow!, what a disaster! Totally out of control! 30 days later, Ann drives up to our house with Cooper, as we wondered if we had wasted a buncha money, or what. We could tell looking out the window, Ann had performed a miracle on our Cooper! He was a changed boy! He obeyed all her commands, walked perfectly on the leash, and then we came out. What a different dog! Never seen anything like it, he missed us, but he did show us how well behaved he was going to be! We still work with him, commands, treadmill, walking, take him to restaurants, and even Happy Hours! Do not hesitate, if you have an out of control dog, to call Ann. She is by far, the best at what she does. Give her a chance with your dog! And don't forget to get the freeze dried liver treats she makes, they help too! Life is good, with a well-mannered Doberman! Thanks again, Ann! Tommy & Rubye, Proud Parents

We are are almost finished with DOG of Jax’s day training program and our puppy is an entirely different dog! Anne and her team are amazing! They teach Camber the skills, and then give us the tools to reinforce at home. She is so much better with listening, obeying, jumping less, and not barking at everything she sees 🤣. I will recommend Anne to literally anyone who owns a dog! (Also this picture is proof they work her hard)

Bosco and I took the foundations class with Anne and she was awesome! Great instruction and I am more confident working with my dog than ever. He’s improved so incredibly and I can’t wait to see if he passes his good citizen test! I am so proud of Bosco and happy with these classes. We will definitely be coming back

Many pups from the year 2020 have missed out on much needed social skills and group settings to help them become good with the basics and being around other dogs. Our adopted Doberman was one of those COVID pups who ended up in rescue at 10 months, and DOG provided just what we needed for him on his way to being a great all around boy. He's super smart, and now we've the basics to build on to keep his mind and body properly engaged so we can survive his high-energy youthful years! Highly recommend Anne and her team.

Just before our move to Jacksonville last year I got a German Shepherd puppy (Francis). Not my first GSD but definitely my most challenging I knew when he insisted on bringing his red light saber on our walks, I needed to up my game and find a trainer ASAP. I knew he had limitless potential but I was clueless on what to do. After extensive research I found DOG of JAX and Anne who in a nutshell is the Jedi master of dog training!!! what ever your situation with your dog she has the knowledge and expertise to get the results you’ve always wanted. I started with private lessons which were invaluable for Francis and especially for me. We’ve also completed several groups classes. Francis and I go everywhere together and are always looking for more challenges to take on. I highly recommend DOG of JAX!!!
