We originally contacted Atlantic K9 Training to help us with our 4 year old Great Pyrenees mix, Reggie. Reggie is a very sweet girl, but she can be very territorial, reactive to other dogs on leash, and overly excited when people come in our house.
After talking with several members of the Atlantic K9 staff, we decided to move forward with the 2 week bootcamp training and the results have been AMAZING. We were a little worried about sending Reggie to training, but the staff members walked us through each step and we felt comfortable that Reggie would learn a lot, while still being able able to do things at home that she enjoys (like sleep on the couch).
Reggie has learned so much and we’ve also learned so much as her owners on how to help her with certain behaviors. We can finally take her on walks with our two young kids without her pulling us or barking at distractions along the way. We never thought family and friends would come over without Reggie barking and jumping all over them, but we’ve been so happy to see how much her behavior has changed since training and how well she listens to us. Emmy made sure to keep us updated throughout the whole process and was great to work with during our training sessions after bootcamp.
We couldn’t be happier and would recommend Atlantic K9 to anyone who is looking for dog training!
