What Reviews Say
33 reviews analyzedDoggone Fit receives overwhelmingly positive reviews (31 of 33 are 5-star), with clients praising transformative training results, knowledgeable staff (especially Richie and Heidi), and excellent communication including photo/video updates. Many clients describe life-changing outcomes for anxious, reactive, or untrained dogs. However, there is one severe 1-star review alleging $5,000 spent with minimal results, dogs being injured during training, and unprofessional conduct including the owner sharing personal matters. While this appears to be an isolated incident given the volume of positive feedback, it raises concerns about consistency. The owner responds warmly and promptly to all reviews, demonstrating strong customer engagement.
