Happy Dog Training & Behavior

I never do public reviews, but after several training classes at Happy Dog Training, I feel compelled to share what a wonderful experience its been. I've taken several of my dogs over the past 10 years to Happy Dog Training for group classes and an individual session. I can't say enough about how great Ellen and Laurie are to work with. This is by far the best training class I've taken in my 20+ years of owning dogs. The classes are fun, well thought out, not too large and best of all the training works! I highly recommend Happy Dog Training!

I have brought my dogs to Happy Dog Training for nearly 18 years now. This is our third pup that we have brought to Happy Dog Training and I cannot express the professionalism, vast knowledge base and pure fun that Ellen (the owner) and Laurie have shared with us and our pups. They always have the answers and resources to so many different aspects of having and training my dogs. One of the biggest bonuses is knowing that Ellen provides lifetime support for you and your pup, you can call or email her with any question or concern. You can easily see how much they love and respect all the animals brought to them, big and small. Honest and respectful, you can't ask for much more. Highly recommended.

Ellen and her colleagues are highly knowledgeable, responsive to questions, courteous and very helpful. Our current dog is our third utilizing Happy Dog Training & Behavior and we are very happy with the results. There is no one better to our knowledge.

I cant recommend this place enough! Ive always rescued dogs from shelters so Ive never really had a puppy (totally different ballgame btw). Each week we learn something new and its amazing how far our little guy has came in just a few weeks. They give you the tools to build a confident, happy, well behaved dog and that is just priceless!

I've brought my (now) almost 6 year old, anxious dog here when he was a pup, and have consulted with Ellen for his needs over the years many times. Ellen is knowledgeable, experienced, and more than qualified. His life has improved, and most important, I MYSELF learned how to approach many facets of dog training the right way. I've also brought my younger pup (now 1) there for puppy training classes. Yes it's great to bring your dog to the classes for socialization, but the classes are for US, not the dogs. Once a week for less than an hour isn't going to train any dog. Consistency and patience go a long way, and our little girl is GREAT with any dog she meets, and very social. I recommend Happy Dog to anybody I discuss training with, and they have been and continue to be my first choice for dog training despite a bit of a drive. Best trainers (Ellen and Lorrie both) I've ever worked with, and I have tried many.
