Testimonials
“Our pup Toby did a 5 week board and train and he came back a well behaved boy! He learned so much about self control while training here and his separation anxiety has improved tremendously. He learned proper leash walking skills, is warming up to his crate, and uses his dog bed as his wind-down space even in a busy house. Lucas and his team know what they’re doing and they are fantastic at it! They care about the wellbeing of the dogs in their care and give them personalized training while also getting them socialized with other dogs. The Cultured Canine is a great investment for your dog and your family!”
– Client
“After my GSP but my wife and myself after we already did training at another training facility… We contacted Lucas and the Cultured Canine. What drew me in right away was their responsiveness and the fact that Lucas wanted to actually meet myself and my dog prior to accepting any money… I would not recommend any other dog trainer other than the CC.”
– Client
“We contacted Cultured Canine after a recommendation from a good friend… Lucas and Megan made a huge difference in Desi’s behavior and we would recommend them to anyone who wants to address their dog’s behavioral problems. They are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced!”
