Testimonials
I’ve learned so much to train my pup we rescued from the shelter. The price is very reasonable and they work with you each week at their training center. My dog really enjoys training sessions with us.

We’ve taken two obedience classes and two agility classes. Alice is wonderful. Her teaching style is no-nonsense and to the point. My dog absolutely loves her and the classes. He has a lot of energy so it’s nice to have a place where he can be challenged and have fun. The classes are ridiculously affordable.

We have had a wonderful experience at Alice’s Companion Dog School! I hadn’t had a dog in 30 years and certainly needed help with my new puppy. We took the Puppy Class, Beginning Obedience, and Intermediate Obedience. I have learned how to be a confident leader for my dog. My goal was to be able to take her anywhere and have good behavior. The instructors at Alice’s helped me exceed my expectations! She is very well behaved and continues to love attending the classes! My pup would go to Alice’s every day if she could!
