Testimonials
“I signed up for the private puppy training class for Wilbur. The content was custom and organized based on his weekly progress. There was focus and attention on his areas of opportunity. I’ve seen so much progress in his behaviors, obedience, potty training in just 4 weeks. It makes me a proud mom! Thank you!”
– Marissa B. and Wilbur, St. Petersburg, FL

– Rachel Richards, St. Petersburg, FL
“We cannot be more pleased to have Animal House Academy Dog Training as our dog support team. Our dog Chapo is a rescue, and is an anxious little dog… With Sandy/Flo’s help, we learned along with Chapo and continue to use the tools she has taught us and now we are quite confident to take him anywhere…”
