Clearly Terry knows how to train dogs and her patience in training people is stellar! As every dog trainer knows, training people is magnitude harder than training dogs, especially these days! Years ago, I saw a sign at an auto shop, “$50 an hour labor, if you help $200 an hour!” Dog training vs. training people is exactly the same especially when far too many people who now hardly anything about dogs, have trained one dog in their life to sit, all the sudden think they are experts, and think every training method works for every dog! Good job Terry. Keep up the great work☺️!

What a great time! My Aussie is 5 and turns out it wasn’t for him! We brought him in and had a great experience. Unfortunately he didn’t have all the “tells” of being interested in herding but we learned a bunch about herding. Met great people. Our dog was just more interested in playing with other dogs or the people to car about livestock ? would definitely recommend taking your herding dog at least once! The trainer was patient and very knowledgeable.

I have a working line GSD I originally wanted to do IGP with but I felt like she had more interested in herding. I was recommended this place by my breeder and I was blown away with how fun the initial experience (instinct test) was. Everyone there is knowledgeable about herding as they've got years of experience. My instructor/coach/mentor is Rich. He's the GSD guy and he's help me improve my relationship with my dog so much. Her obedience is a lot stronger and our relationship has blossomed. They also host trials every quarter and we managed to title this past October.
I would say although my experience was really good, not every herding... read full review
