GBTrainer lauren 10 stars - Dogwise 1 star !! I feel Dogwise as a company let myself and dog down! They placed my dog with a man that mistreated my dog, that did no training, I believe did not feed and left in a crate constantly! Dogwise did not truly know the kind of man and trainer they hired which is disturbing to me on their hiring process and the care that any other dogs will get. A bad start the first week ended with Lauren going above and beyond to get my dog out of a terrible situation. She then had my dog for 4 weeks. OMG amazing!! At this point I felt so comfortable and so much more relaxed. I received up dates and videos daily with great detail not only how she was training my dog but myself also!!! Lauren is honest, straight forward and always there if you need her for questions or help! I asked the CEO for some compensation for the first week filled with stress, concern, and pure fear as a dog parent and was told in so many words it was not within there budget! That was crap!! This program was super expensive for me to begin with and when my dog was handed over to Lauren from this other trainer he was missing belongings I sent him with, leash, toys, bed etc.. which will be an added expense for me to replace now! I would trust Lauren 100% but please tread lightly with the company itself. I talked with the CEO 2 times and als I heard was I understand, and no care in his voice. But he did offer to buy my dog a toy! lol how generous!! Thank you Lauren for everything you truly are amazing!!

GBLuis Training My 8 Month Old Corgi My 8 month old Corgi, Frankie, spent 2 weeks with Luis working on potty training and loose leash training. So far, Frankie has had 0 accidents in our apartment and is a significantly better walker on the streets of NYC. Luis was always responsive and is clearly experienced in dog training. He also took plenty of time with us at drop off to go through training techniques and answer our questions. Would recommend Luis and DogWise!

GBOur 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.

GBTraining My Puppy I recently added a 4-month old Golden Retriever. Due to the combination of his hyperactivity and me working full time, I looked for someone to help me to train him. Almost immediately I saw an online advertisement for Dogwise Academy. I called and they answered all of my questions and some I hadn’t thought of. I was bashful about “releasing” my new puppy for 2 weeks, but it was worth it. I received pictures, videos, and general correspondence daily from the training showing the puppy’s progress. I was very pleased with everything that was done and my puppy continues to improve and learn more every day.

GBRene has greatly helped and continues… Rene has greatly helped and continues to help our puppy become an obedient little girl that two old people can manage. We’re grateful for her help with Coco. Rene’s assisted in potty tracing and commands to help control behavior. She also designed a schedule that has greatly helped get Coco on track. Thank you, Rene.
