Spring Forth Dog Academy

This is an excellent option for the 🐕 but this place is run like a military undertaking something not expected out of a local small business. Allow me to narrate my experience. We had signed up our puppy for the 3 months puppy package...when you buy it you are also upsold to buy training packages - we got 10 for around $300. These training packages expire within 3 months of purchase..they mention it while buying and there is no flexibility in case you don't use it within that time period. In my case I had elected to not send my dog during the holidays and assumed that I will be able to utilize the classes as long as she will go to springforth - This was not the case and I lost 8 of the unused classes. They are also very elitist..once when I was discussing about how my dog did not eat her food at home they assumed I was feeding her low calorie food which could be the reason. The last issue I had was how they don't give any sick days for the dog..when I had called my dog in sick they still counted that day against her paid days which is worth ($60). TL;DR - good place for the 🐕 but bad for the pocket and definitely not friendly / flexible.

My puppy Venus came here for about 3 months and loved it. Here they encourage the dogs by "positive reinforcement". Never aggressive training. Also the schedule is flexible.

I can't say enough good things about Spring Forth. All of their methods positive based and you will see results quickly. Katherine and her staff are very approachable and easy to communicate with. You can tell that their passion is training dogs and guiding their owners. Their Puppy Day School is a must for anyone wishing to get their pup into a daycare like environment. They work on socialization and appropriate play, basic manners, as well as crate and house training. The weekly report cards are a great way to see the progress your puppy is making and the frequent Facebook posts allow owners to catch a glimpse of all the fun the pups have. I also highly recommend their group classes. Class sizes are smaller than other places I have been allowing for a less chaotic environment but still plenty of socialization and time for one on one guidance. Overall my puppy and I give Spring Forth two paws up!
