What Reviews Say
87 reviews analyzedH.O.P.E. Dog Training receives overwhelmingly positive reviews (82% are 5-star), with clients praising the knowledgeable, caring staff and excellent training results that transform dog behavior. However, there are significant red flags including two concerning reviews about dogs returning sick or contracting parasites, and several complaints about training not resolving severe behavioral issues, particularly with aggressive/reactive dogs. The owner is highly responsive, replying to every review with a warm, personalized tone within 1-2 days. While most clients are satisfied and many are repeat customers, prospective clients should be cautious about board-and-train programs for severe behavioral issues.

Dog returned sick after board and train
“I got my dog back after he was in the program for two weeks he came back sick.”
Dog left in crate excessively with inadequate bathroom breaks/water
