Very happy with the work that Dave did with our dog Willow. He helped her with her reactivity, and in a short period of time we have already seen significant improvement.
Fabulous trainer and really understands how dogs think, learn and need to be trained on all levels, thank you Dave from Dean and Nikita
Our dog Dewey is a rescue from Mexico and came to us with some behavioural issues. Aviva the owner of Baby Dog training is the best trainer we’ve encountered. She uses the principles of psychology including desensitization and positive reinforcement. Aviva is kind and patient and has a sense of humour. Dewey has improved and we will definitely recommend Baby Dog training!!!!!
We took our puppy to Babydog at Bosleys it is 100% worth the 10 dollars for a drop in socialization class. We loved it so much we went 3 times a week for months. It really does help you learn your dogs body language, and getting to hold other peoples adorable puppies is priceless. If you like puppies you will love babydog
We attended Babydog’s puppy socialization classes and they were awesome. Aviva and her team really know their stuff. I highly recommend!
I'm biased, but BabyDog is really rad and they've done a great job with my dogs :)
Babydog group have been fantastic. We joined the socialization group, and a few dog walks. Both were very helpful for both me and Ruby.
We had private training sessions with Aviva to help us with our puppy. Aviva helped us all so much with the tools to continue to work with daily. It was amazing watching our puppy learn so much during those sessions.We looked forward to each session and we highly recommend Babydog. Our puppy has severe anziety with strangers and dogs and watching her work through this was absolutely amazing !
