I sent my boy Simba to Art of Dog for a 4 week board and train. He is a great dog, but we were having serious issues with severe reactivity, lack of confidence/intimidated, and aggression. What will happen if you choose to utilize Dave and his staff is they will train your dog and equip you with the tools and expertise to bring your dog home and continue the training once they are back in your environment. We are having great success with Simba at home (expect your dog to test you once home!) but we have the knowledge we need to help him practice his skills and continue his learning! Ashely and Dave have been extremely responsive whenever I have had a question after his return home and also while he was at the facility. A huge bonus is the lifelong lessons after the board and train so if a problem arises or even a new issue, they are there to help the dog but even more importantly, give you additional skills to improve your learning as well! Simba is working hard on being the best boy he can be and we are grateful for the support and expertise from Dave and his staff.

Dave and his team are great. We sent both of our reactive (for different reasons) dogs to board and train last summer. They both came home with helpful tools, discipline, and more confidence. The follow up lessons are amazing and the trainers are always so happy and eager to help us where we fall short (shoutout Marissa!). We also now have a reliable team of people to leave our dogs with for boarding when we are away. Couldn’t recommend The Art of Dog more!! It’s worth the investment!

Worked with Dave and Marissa for both of our dogs and had a great experience. We did the board and train program with one dog and the training package with the other, and really appreciated how personalized the lessons were based on each dog’s needs. We have nothing but positive things to say. Both dogs now have strong off leash recall, are crate trained, no longer pull on the leash, and can comfortably go out in public. We also love having the option to use their boarding services going forward.

Our dog Zara was having some behavioral issues. Not listening, biting, jumping, trying to be the boss. After having her in the Board & Train program for 3 weeks, she came home a different dog!! Way less stress with her! She's has been great.. Very pleased with the outcome and highly recommend if you are having some issues with your pet. A huge Thanks to Dave and his crew for making all of our days for the better!!

Dave, Marissa and the whole team really changed our dogs. First one is Ollie. He used to have leash aggression, pulling and poor recall. Now, we’re very confident in bringing Ollie for walks, hikes and even at dog friendly stores/places without worrying about his old bad behaviors. This time, we brought our new dog, Freya. And we are certain that she’s learned a lot from the team. We’re excited to have two dogs that are well trained by Dave and Marissa! We will forever be grateful for The Art of Dog!
