We sent our two dogs, Owen and Peanut, to Black Dog Farm for a 3 week training camp. We had several issues with them that needed correcting. There was food guarding, excessive nonstop barking, ignoring our commands and some aggression issues with Peanut. We were at wits end! Sending them to camp is one of the…

Kris is amazing! She is trainer #5 for my miniature schnauzer. Other trainers were able to teach him basic obedience but they could never tackle his leash reactivity. After spending 2 weeks at Black Dog Farm I can finally take my dog to the vet without them having to clear the lobby or bring him in the back door. He…

I cannot recommend Black Dog Farms enough! I sent both of my dogs to train with her — one for three weeks and the other for two — and the experience exceeded every expectation I had. Each dog received a customized training plan tailored to their specific needs, including basic obedience, reactivity, and pack…

Crazy Daisy WAS just that. She is just over a 1yo, an Aussie mix, and still has plenty of puppy energy. Unsocialized and out of control, we were at our wits end and regretting taking her in. Kris was our only hope and boy, did she come through! The change has been amazing! Our family, including Daisy, of course, are…

We took our sweet (out of control) frenchie puppy to Kris for a 3 week boot camp. When we sent Lily to Black Dog Farms it was with the hopes that we could turn around Lily’s behavior and enjoy our life as a family. Did Kris ever deliver! Lily had been home for a week and it is like we have a different dog. In…

Kris was a great trainer to our toy poodle FENDI. She learned basic commands, going into her travel kennel with no fuss, and a potty routine. Kris kept me updated with daily videos as well as instructions on how to continue at home training. Thank you for your help with our girl!

Kris trained our Australian Shepherd with lots of behavior issues (jumping, nipping, pulling on lease, generally not obeying). When she came home from training, she was like a different dog! We are so impressed! Highly recommend Black Dog Farm Training!

Kris with Black Dog Farms was wonderful for our Irish Setter, Copper! She was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and kind during his training experience and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for this service! Thank you, Kris!
