Atlanta Dog Trainer

Kennel cough/illness transmission with inadequate communication

“Our dog was definitely symptomatic at some point in their care and was even showing signs when we picked him up...The staff who are obviously knowledgeable in this knew he had this and never felt the need to tell us”

Perceived dominance-based training methods

“But, the one thing that was congruent is that we should 'dominate' our puppies. This type of training just felt wrong in my gut”

Puppy injured in class - trampled by larger dog

“Our trainer allowed her to be trampled by a larger dog in the group...my puppy got pummeled and was left timid during playtime for the remaining classes”

Class held in unsafe cold weather conditions

“Our second class took place outside in the shade at a 19° wind chill. My little puppy was shivering, and we had to leave halfway through”

Former employee allegations about animal treatment

“I am a previous employee and quit because of how rude ALL of management is...the way they treat your dogs when your not around would surprise you”

Communication gaps(5 mentions)

“Communication is definitely poor. Tried calling back, reaching back out, but no answer.”

Training expectations not met(3 mentions)

“We sent our dog to this place for two weeks...No, she is exactly the same. We believe that the trainer didn't have enough experience to train Lola.”

Value/cost concerns(3 mentions)

“I don't feel like we learned even half of what they advertised to be taught in the class.”
