Dogs and Kat

My 6mo high-energy mixed breed rescue and I took the Basic Family Manners course on Saturday mornings. We had the BEST time. She loved coming, and so did! It was really great bonding. I was really sad when it ended. We learned a lot, the training was taught in a way that was fun for the dogs and simple for owners to understand, and the environment felt very safe, welcoming and nonjudgemental. It set a very high bar as I haven't found another place in Nashville that has lived up to this group training experience. My only wish is that they had more frequent offering for classes beyond Basic Obedience!

We had an awesome time at puppy manners and positive play!! We learned how to manage our puppies behaviors in a positive way. The instructor (Josh) was very knowledgeable and encouraging! We will definitely be back for future classes as needed :)

Dogs and Kat made a HUGE difference in our puppy training. The puppy play and manners combo helped us get off on the right paw with our little guy. He always had a blast and we learned a ton. I cannot recommend them enough.

We love Dogs and Kat! Tripp has been our trainer for puppy class and has also come to our house for 1:1 sessions. The Dogs and Kat team are always so accommodating and kind — we had an interesting case and they went above and beyond in helping us get scheduled and set up with our 1:1 sessions. Tripp is a fantastic trainer. While he admitted our dog's case is more challenging than most, he never makes us feel like we can't overcome the issues at hand (we are still working on some things!) and is very encouraging. We really appreciate his style of training and would highly recommend Tripp and Dogs and Kat to anyone who needs a compassionate, positive, and effective trainer.

Our trainer recommended Dogs and Kat's puppy play time and I'm so glad we made it part of our training plan. It's very well-run and really improved our puppy's social behaviors. Dave is great!
