We’ve been working with Jo Beth and her fantastic staff since July, and the transformation in our high-energy dog, Lulu, has been incredible. Her jumping and leash walking have improved so much — and her digging has completely stopped! Adding day school once a week has been a game changer. Lulu gets to learn and socialize in a safe, structured environment, and she always comes home happy and worn out. Jo Beth and her team are knowledgeable, kind, and truly invested in their dogs. We couldn’t be more grateful — highly recommend The Good Dog Academy!
Every pup should get this experience! Jo Beth is amazing and her Good Dog Academy is incredible! She is so knowledgeable and her interactions with my fearful pup were exactly what he needed. It was very important to me that his first experience in a "facility" type environment left a positive and fun impression, and that is exactly what Jo Beth has created! She was intuitive, enthusiastic and patient with him, and her passion for her work feels so genuine. This is an invaluable resource and I am so grateful to her for creating a space that prioritizes her philosophy and our dogs’ well being first and foremost. Her dedication and experience in the field are undeniable. We utilize skills we learn from her every single day! Thank you!
We have been very impressed with Jo Beth and her training center. Our youngest dog has attended day school, our middle wild child had a great session working on his recall and door dashing tendencies, and our oldest dog loved the painting event we did with her!
