Canine Academy Columbus

I cannot say enough good things about Canine Academy. I sent my dog Silas, a young and very strong pitty mix, for training with Ashley and the transformation has been incredible. Before training, Silas had terrible leash manners. Walking him honestly felt like I was going to get my arm ripped out of my socket. He also got extremely excited when he saw people and would jump on them like no other. His recall was basically nonexistent and he would not come when called. When I picked him up from training, it truly felt like night and day. His leash walking has improved so much and I finally feel in control when I take him out. His recall skills are better than ever, and he genuinely listens to me now. The progress Ashley made with him is amazing, and it is clear she is knowledgeable, patient,

I took my 8 month old Golden Retriever puppy (Rosie) to Canine academy. I was honestly in over my head with some of her puppy behaviors and energy. Rosie struggled with recall, being redirected and would engage in mouthing of our hands and her walk on a leash was, well, horrid to say the least. Rosie attended the board and train program and matched with Ashley as a trainer. Ashely work so diligently with her and provided updates on her work and progress. When Ashley was not actively training Rosie, the Care Team here provided me updates and pictures of her enjoying play time and and visiting with her “friends”. After her time with Ashley I saw the progress through the videos/pictures and calls I got along the way but seeing her in person was a different experience. Rosie was her same

I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Canine Academy. My dog Leo did the nine day Board and Train with Alex, and I’m honestly blown away by the difference. He walks so much better on a leash now, stays focused, and you can tell he actually enjoys training. Alex was incredibly patient and thoughtful with Leo, especially since he recently had knee surgery and doesn’t always want to sit on command. Instead of forcing it, Alex adjusted the training to what Leo could comfortably handle. It meant a lot to me to see someone pay attention to his limitations and still help him succeed. The bond they built was so clear. Leo absolutely lit up around Alex, which made me feel so good about leaving him in someone else’s care. And the entire care team was amazing. I got updates every

We needed to board our 8mo old mini bernedoodle. We decided to do a board and train program. After interviewing several different programs I knew canine academy was the perfect place for my boy. They were so professional and made me feel like they would treat him like one of their own. I’ve never boarded a dog before and was so nervous but they sent me pictures everyday and he was having the time of his life. Kayla was his trainer and she was amazing! I shared specifically the issues we’re having at home. We have a 2 year old and the toys and distractions in the home have been challenging for Tucker. She pushed him and challenged him and he is doing amazing. Friends and family have been so impressed so far. He has been a new dog. I’m so thankful we decided to send him to canine academy fo

We took our 5 year old golden doodle, who had some resource guarding issues, to Canine Academy. We tried very hard over the years to get his resource guarding under control, but it wasn’t until Canine Academy got involved that we really feel like it’s not a safety hazard to have him in certain situations. We now feel that we have the tools to manage his “moments” with ease. He listens, we’re seeing less of these “moments”, and he’s getting along amazingly with our new dog. It went so well that we decided to take our new addition, our Labradoodle puppy, to Canine Academy. Both dogs behave EXACTLY how we want. We feel that Kayla and Ashley heard what we wanted to get out of our dogs’ experiences and tailored their approach towards our discussions. We truly don’t have enough good things to sa
