Hannah and her team LISTENED to our concerns regarding the behaviors of Beasley, 5 yrs old and 70 pounds. The love and training Beasley received was obvious when we saw her after 2 weeks. We opted for the Board and Train package and have been impressed everyday since taking Beasley home. I RECOMMEND WAH HIGHLY!!!! Also, we are able to receive continual training and fun visits with our package…..as fur parents, consistency is key and WAH is always here to help us!! It’s always a pleasure when Beasley sees the trainers and her old fur buddies!!! We are so very grateful for Wild At Heart Training Academy!! Best investment EVER!!!
The staff here are incredible. They worked with our new Labrador Moose. He achieved incredible things at a very young age. I would highly recommend wild at heart. Aubrey is a great trainer and very attentive to our needs also answering questions even after his training, she is there to support and answer any questions we have going forward. If you are interested in training you can visit the facility with your dog and they will evaluate and make suggestions based on your needs. Go call them!!!!
We got Hope (with her strong terrier instincts) when she was 1-1/2 and needed some help settling her into our home life. Aubrie was great in training Hope and correcting any unwanted behaviors. She is very friendly, professional and patient, and took time to explain everything. Aubrie and the crew at WAHA are great and I would highly recommend them for any training and behavior corrections. Hope thanks them too!
We had great experiences with training two rescued dogs here. We have also used the boarding services and were very pleased. All the staff are so friendly and trainer Hanna really listened to what our needs and goals were with training and helped us achieve them. Our border collie mix was anxious and reactive and she is so much better now. Hanna helped me train Sadie, our other dog, to behave well in all public settings and focus and perform tasks to be able to assist me with some health issues I have. Sadie is a big help to me now. Thank you Wild At Heart!
Our experience at WAH Training Academy for my highly reactive doodle, Joey, has been very positive. Because of Joey's reactivity, we had been through multiple trainers in this area. Aubrie Keith, at WAH, was the first to really help Joey begin to accept training and lessen his reactivity. After our 8 sessions we continued on in a group class with Hannah for some time as well. The training at WAH is not just for your pet, but for you as your pet's handler and partner to ensure their success. Joey will be a reactive dog his entire life, but the tools, tactics and learnings from WAH have given us both the ability to work through his triggers in a safe and consistent way. I think that the methods at WAH have been very helpful for both Joey and myself and have given us the fundamentals to keep exposing him to, and working through his issues. Joey is in a much better place than where he was before training, but he will always be in training for the balance of his life and we are both ready and capable for this. The skills Aubrie taught me have helped me with my other dogs as well, none of which have Joey's reactivity.
