Customer Testimonials
"When we adopted Tyke we had no idea what we were getting into. As sweet and cute as he was there were quite a few behavioral problems that the whole family needed to learn how to deal with. With the help of Good Dog University we became more confident in handling him and we now spend more time getting to enjoy our walks together. Good Dog University helped us right when we needed it with understanding, support and most importantly, with humor. Thanks for everything!" Casey, Mervin and Tyke Huntington Beach, CA

"It is very clear that you genuinely care and are committed to making a difference for dogs and their owners. In one visit the tension, competition and conflict between my old dog and new puppy turned to calm respect and playfulness. And your puppy manual was so helpful."

"Who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks! We called several places about our 9 year old Beagle Sasha before our veterinarian recommended Good Dog University to us. The other places we called didn’t give us a lot of hope. One trainer made us feel guilty about not solving these problems sooner and another actually asked us why are we bothering after all this time? We were very relieved once we spoke and of course began training with Good Dog University. They were INCREDIBLY patient with us and it was clear they didn’t pass any judgment with us. In fact their service and support went beyond anything we’ve ever experienced with ANY type of service company before. Sasha is like a whole new and happier dog! Our training has really changed our lives as well. We now have a lot more freedom since we can take Sasha with us to more places. A few of our friends that Sasha use to annoy when they came over now joke with us by asking, "Are you sure they didn't switch dogs on you?" They can't get over how well trained Sasha is after all these years and they have began to interact with her when they visit! Thank you doesn’t seem big enough!"

"We rescued a Shepard/Boxer mix puppy with absolutely no manners and she great difficulty in learning new behaviors. Good Dog University has made a tremendous difference in Molly's life and ours. Their patience with both Molly and us has resulted in a better behaved and happier puppy. The one-on-one training is specific to Molly's needs, and she has responded magnificently. Upon entering our home friends notice her improved behavior immediately. Our family is exceptionally pleased with Good Dog University and would recommend them to anyone needing individual training for their dog. They've been a life saver to us!"

"Good Dog University gets straight A’s for their outstanding work with our dog, Dodger. He has mastered walking on a leash, sits when he’s told and most importantly, coming and staying. All of these were accomplished through the love and positive reinforcement by the fine teaching of Good Dog University. Dodger is praised on a regular basis by strangers for his fine demeanor and good manners."

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! We can't believe the huge difference to our home life since you showed our whole family how to work with Buster our crazy Jack Russell! Although we love Buster both my husband and I were at wits end and our kids were stressed with the thought that Buster may have to go live somewhere else... and soon! The thought of Buster having to leave us and what that would do to our kids broke my heart. But at the same time we knew we could continue with all the destruction either. Your common sense approach, wonderful patience, and obvious commitment in helping family in chaos like we were is truly wonderful gift to us all! Buster is now a full member of our family with no concerns of ever having to leave! Thank you again!

"I found that Good Dog University’s very calming and assuring manner worked very effectively in training both my dogs and myself. Most importantly, I learned how to handle my own dogs’ specific needs and gained the understanding of what was "normal" dog behavior. Good Dog University’s knowledge and support is invaluable."
