We are so glad we found Dogwise Academy… We are so glad we found Dogwise Academy Dog Training. Njoud provided a personalized and caring training approach for Daisy since she was a rescue and had some behavioral issues. Njoud has played a critical role in Daisy’s development into a better-behaved companion. Using positive reinforcement and specific training techniques, The dog training tips Njoud provided were priceless! Within weeks, Daisy has mastered many basic skills and has continued to learn more. In addition, Njoud provided daily progress texts updates and videos during Daisy’s training so we could learn and see Daisy’s progress. At the end of the training we were provided additional training tool to reinforce what was taught to Daisy. Plus we may reach out to Njoud if Daisy needs any refreshers or updates to her ongoing training.

I would like to thank Njoud for the support and love for working with my dog I would like to thank Njoud for the three weeks she spent with my dog Teri. I am late writing this review my apology. Njoud and her family gave Teri so much love and care during the three weeks. Njoud helped Teri get on the right track, with house manners, walking her has improved. Njoud came out for a follow up, Teri went nuts so happy to see her and after giving Njoud some love she went right in following her commands. On our walk Njoud got to see Teri walking and gave me some more training that I needed. Thank you Njoud

My Puppy Was Failed I have gone back and forth about leaving this review but after seeing the other recent similar reviews I feel it is my responsibility to say something so other's can have all the information before agreeing to training with this company. I want to firstly discuss the unreliability of the trainer. I understand emergencies/weather/etc. happen however our pick up, drop off, and after training session were rescheduled all together over 7 times. My dog was dropped back off to us after 9PM at night so the after training handover session could not occur as it was dark and I have a small child. The trainer told me for the next FIVE days he was "on his way" to our location and yet hours later would text stating he was still hours away and would reschedule last minute. I had to change my job hours around and pay for daycare for the five days the trainer was supposed to come back to show us what my dog learned for him to just not show up. Clearly he had better plans to attend then our handover session. I would also like to say that we did not receive daily updates and when he did receive updates, it was the same material in the video; our dog on a leash walking. I think all together we received 3-4 videos in a three week span. When the trainer finally did show back up for our handover session(hours late), he stayed in my driveway for less than 15 minutes, told me to get my puppy a shock collar, and left. I cannot tell you ONE thing my dog learned while he was in his training seminar. I was told NOTHING about his training and how to continue it. I made sure before I scheduled and paid for the training that they would be able to deal with my dog's specific issues, which was being too rough with my cats/chickens and I was ASSURED this would be addressed. I never received proof this was addressed during the 3 weeks. I never received after training instructions to address this issue. Within one day of being home, my puppy injured my cat. This program failed my dog/my family and now we are reaping the consequences as I cannot allow this behavior to continue for the safety of all people/animals in my house. My 9 month old puppy was a gentle giant. He would never go after any of my other dogs or INTENTIONALLY hurt any animals in my home but within a week of him being home he initiated a fight with my other dogs and did some damage. He was the most submissive dog and would fall to the floor if they even so much as growled at him. Now he is picking fights and he is a Great Dane so its not easy to break these issues up. The trainer himself told me the dogs he owns are aggressive and ironically enough now my 9 month old puppy is picking fights. He also NEVER barked. Someone could knock on my door and he wouldn't even make a peep. Now ALL he does is bark ALL DAY and as someone who works from home, this is not ideal. Another issue Dogwise didn't seem to care about is my dog came home with EIGHT wounds. He was seen by a vet who stated these look like wounds from long periods of time in a crate rubbing his limbs/scratching that were licked constantly to create hotspots. My vet has informed me due to the level of damage that these wounds will scar permanently. Dogwise sent me an aftercare package to give insight on continuing training in my home and I am almost positive it is the SAME information they send to all dogs. There was no personal information on my dogs case, his trainer, the best way to handle him, etc. They gave me a copy and paste template that I could have found on the internet. After reaching out, all they did was offer me three free training sessions with the same trainer. As I explained to them I am HIGHLY uncomfortable continuing with this trainer, they offered nothing else. I assume they will copy and paste the exact same reply they sent the other bad reviews and that just proves to me more that they show no personalization/care for each individual case as being its own dog. I did not leave this review to gain a reply from this company, I did not leave it to gain anything. I left it for others and their dogs.

Our dog has aggressive behavior… Our dog has aggressive behavior problems that is the one reason he was sent to dogwise. The day he came home he showed worse behavior than before he left. I will say he walke better on the leash as long he doesn’t engage people or dogs. And he’s stay (place command) is great in the house.
