Testimonials

“I joined the Valley View Canine family in 2007 with my mini Aussie… Fast forward to 2022… I had not successfully found a trainer who could help our dogs join our growing family… VVC offered virtual class… And wow!! My 1 year old Coltriever has passed obedience 1 and 2 all while being at home.”
– Kimberly Hughes

“We have been taking classes and using Doggy Daycare since January of 2007… The care and services that Valley View and their staff have provided for 15 plus years has been excellent… We also are really enjoying the Zoom classes.”
– Rob and Kim Rutz

“My family has been using Valley View Canine for about 25 years… We have tried other trainers but always come back to Valley View because our dogs always seem to be better trained when done.”
– Michael & Julie Netsch

About the Trainer

Valley View Canine is a dog training business with over 30 years of experience, offering training for all breeds, ages, and skill levels—including puppies, adolescents, adults, seniors, rescues, shelter dogs, and dogs with behavioral challenges like fearfulness, aggression, or reactivity. They specialize in trust-based, praise-driven training that focuses on building a strong bond between dog and owner, avoiding treat-based methods. Classes are offered in-person and via hybrid/virtual formats, including Puppy Preschool, Obedience I–III, and Monday Advanced Training. Private lessons and board-and-train services are also available. They emphasize socialization, real-life behavior correction, and owner education, helping dogs behave well in public, around children, and during activities like hiking or camping. Their training includes guidance on nutrition, health, and grooming. They also support Roselynn Ranch, a local nonprofit aiding families in crisis with their pets.

Valley View Canine provides an online market for training supplies and coupons, and clients can register for classes via their Forms page and pay through the Online Market. They offer flexible scheduling with classes on weekdays and weekends, mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Their long-term clients praise Lynette, the primary trainer, for her deep knowledge, patience, and ability to tailor training to each dog’s needs.

Additional services include dog daycare and board-and-train options, with deliveries and class cancellations noted around holidays like Christmas.

Accomplishments
