        My dog was one of those dogs you wish you never had in a dog class.... He was uncontrollable, fearful and loud. He became a new dog in Martha's hands and she taught me how to help him navigate the new waters of being around other dogs and to build up his confidence in other skills. I am so happy I came to Smartydog and look forward to learning more on how to communicate with my baby.

        Amazing training from a caring and very professional expert. Classes are fun, educational, safe while encouraging building trust and bonding between pet and owner. Martha knows the breeds very well and how to appropriately train them. No yanking of choke collars or yelling at your dogs here. This is training that works without harsh control tactics. Highly recommend.

        I have a rescue dog that had some issues. I liked that the class focused on teaching me how to recognize and manage my dog behavioral problems.

        The course I attended included impulse control, obedience commands, communication & confidence work via obstacle training.

        I found the classes to be both helpful and enjoyable. The instructor was awesome.

        I thought some of the reviews were kind of over the top for this place but I want a good place to take my dog so I started class last week. So far I am very happy with what they offer.

        I love this place. My dog was out of control and now his behavior is much better. I also enjoy all the activities they have like pictures with Santa and movie night. I'd reccomend them to any dog owner.

        I have had lots of dog but I never took them to training classes. I've always been able to teach my dogs the basics at home. My wife was having problems with our dog so she took him to classes at the smartydog center. She kept telling me about the fun things she was doing with our dog so I went with her to class. I never knew you could do so many things with a dog. My wife and I switched off working with the dog with her working for half the class and me the other half. I really started to look forward to Tuesday nights. We're having such a great time that we've signed Bailey up for their flex training classes. I should have tried this along time ago. The classes are not just about obedience, they are about relationships.

        I've taken my dog to training classes at many different places. None of the other training centers had the variety of classes and quality of instructors that I found at the smartydog center. I even got to try kayaking with my dog, it was truly an amazing experience.
