Testimonials

Yes you can teach an old dog new tricks! Our 8 year old dog and us parent needed help to lead a peaceful and happy life filled with great walks, good human interactions and continued love. Aly’s methodologies and instruction have improved our relationships with our dogs and others as we can engage safely and calmly with our dog.
– Katherine McLain

Their intuition and training experience is without parallel. It is worth the investment! There are so many things I could say but I will close by saying that Aly and team are AMAZING and highly recommended, five-star plus, plus, plus, plus!
– Shannon Newsom

Opal got a great start in life by being trained at APBC from 8-11 weeks of age. She encountered so many friendly, well trained dogs that she believes EVERY dog is a great dog. As a first time dog parent, I needed all the help I could get. The course and staff were incredibly helpful – just what I needed to become a more confident pack leader. : ) It’s been almost a year since she graduated, and I remain grateful for the training every day.
