What Reviews Say

33 reviews analyzed

Braveheart Kennels receives overwhelmingly positive reviews (82% 5-star ratings), with customers praising the board-and-train program for producing lasting behavioral changes in their dogs. The staff (particularly Mike, Brady, and Harold) are repeatedly highlighted as knowledgeable, patient, and communicative. One concerning red flag exists: a professional trainer's complaint about the use of dominance training methods with shock collars, though this appears to be an isolated concern not reflected in typical customer experiences. The few 1-star reviews lack text, making it impossible to identify specific complaints.
