My name is Larry, and this is an honest review of Stephanie (owner and trainer) and the Super Dog Training Facility from a client of Super Dog Board and Train.First, I will cover the training facility, the good and the bad, the training facility is huge and well laid out. There is a building used for the training of your pet, there is also a separate building that houses your pet in its own place (there other dogs housed in the same building in their own place). Now the bad…THERE IS NOTHING BAD about the facility or Stephanie’s training methods.The building at the entrance of the facility is the main living area for Stephanie and her family members.As I said, the training facility (grounds) is a huge fenced-in area, it is my estimate that the entire facility equals 5-6 football fields. Don’t quote me on the above…it is merely a visual estimate based on my visiting the facility.Now, on to the training review: Stephanie is an excellent trainer, she had my 6-month-old female Golden Doodle puppy for a month and let me say, the difference between the puppy’s behavior before and after attending training is as different as night and day. If, you own a Golden-Doodle you know that as puppies they are psychotic, especially if you have two puppies from the same litter (as I do). As a first-time dog owner, I was shocked and unprepared how wild and crazy these pups become when they get excited. I often refer to them as miniature kangaroos due to their ability to get high elevation (jumping in the air at a height of 2-3 feet) when they get excited.Ok, I digress…Stephanie is an excellent teacher. She trains each dog individually based on their ability and quickness to comprehend the commands. After your dog has spent a month with Stephanie, you come to the facility to watch Stephanie and your dog go through the paces, then you have the opportunity to practice the same commands. Stephanie guides you through each command given to the dog, then critiques’ you on what you need to improve on when giving commands.Stephanie also provides you with videos of the training sessions, a cot (which the dog knows as his/her “Place”), a training collar, and the remote control for the training collar, an explanation on how to use the training collar and how and where to place the collar around the dog’s neck. Finally, a guide (list and explanation of each command that the dog has learned for you to refresh yourself) that you can print. Also, an owner’s manual for the dog collar and remote control.Now, on to the cost. You may initially think that the cost is expensive but consider this: Your dog is housed at the facility for 30 days and during those 30 days, your dog is taught obedience training/commands, your dog is taken to places where distractions are present (restaurants that permit pets, pet stores, parks (to ensure that your dog is on his/her best behavior), and frequent drives in the car. Stephanie trains your dog how to walk on and off leash, to stay until you call him/her, down, sit, etc. Your dog learns not to counter-surf, yes even as puppies my puppies learned to counter-surf at an early age (which was important at my house…lol). If your dog is a puppy, he/she is potty trained, Stephanie treats her client’s pets as if they were her own. The cost is well worth what you get in return.Stephanie stays in contact with the client even after the training at her facility has ended to ensure that the client is continuing to reinforce the training that the dog received.Finally, Stephanie dropped off my trained puppy and took my 2nd puppy back to the training facility for 30 days on board and train. Obviously, I am extremely satisfied with the training that my first puppy received and I am looking forward to when her training is complete and I get to bring her home.

We had been struggling to potty train our 7 month old rescue (dachshund). She was pee pad trained but refused to go outside. One session with Stephanie and our pup started going outside within 24 hrs! Worth every single penny!

AMAZING!!!!We were having an issue with our dogs pulling and surging towards other animals. Having had dogs (Pitbulls, German Shepherds) as part of our family over the past 25 years we figured we would eventually get them to stop, but a year later not much improvement.Stephanie, in less than a one hour training session fixed the issues. We were amazed at how she analyzed their behavior as well as ours and like magic we have two super well behaved dogs. On top of that her pricing is extremely fair.The walk that evening after going to training just one time (still blows me away) was awesome. Not one pull from the front door and back during a 30 minute walk. They stayed exactly by our sides the whole time with slack in their leads.Thank you Stephanie!

For all of you who are frustrated with your energized and uncooperative puppy, seek the professional services of Stephanie's Super dog Center. I am a Navy Veteran with PTSD, and with her patients and guidance, both Gracie, my puppy, and I have achieved a partnership for life. Its a beautiful bond and I thank you so very much Stephanie.

I am so glad I took my puppy to Stephanie. I had been following different YouTube channels and reading articles but my puppy was getting more and more defiant so I knew I was doing something wrong. Stephanie’s class was so helpful. She addressed all of the behavioral issues that I was struggling with and then did an obedience training session with sit, stay, down, heal, come. I was really impressed with how much I learned during just one hour. I can see that my puppy is already respecting me more with putting into practice what I learned. I highly recommend her class.

Stephanie spent an hour teaching me things I never knew in the whole year I have had my puppy. I have learned so much and my dog is already getting better. What a true professional and the closest person to the real dog whisperer! Wonderful, very clean place for training. Very impressed, I highly recommend.

The best Dog trainer. I have had my GSD about 2 years. I brought him at 4 months old to PetSmart training and pretty much got all bad advice. While at Home Depot I met a man who had his GSD in the store and we got to talking and he recommended Super Dog Center. Just a couple of lessons with Stephanie and I knew how to pretty much correct any bad behavior. Now I have a dog I can take anywhere. It improves his quality of life because he can be involved with everything our family does. I realized after watching her with the dogs, she is able to do what she does, because she truly loves them. I have not boarded my dog, but every time I am there, I can see the dogs being boarded on the property and they are so well taken care of. Just very impressed with such professionalism, when in this day is truly rare and very hard to find.

First training session with my dog went great! After one session, my dogs behavior has already improved. She gave me techniques to work with my dog at home. Very efficient- I don’t have time for weekly trainings so the private session was exactly what I needed.

My pup went here for months! We tried over 5 different daycares and this one was the perfect match. They dogs get plenty of play time while in a safe environment. So grateful I found this place.
