The reviews were spot on… we got OUR dog back and better than ever! And I mean our same spunky, silly girl but with a little less sass and a lot more love. Thank you Aaron and Jen!
Our dog came back from Board and Train so well behaved. Aaron and Jennifer are incredible! Felt much better and more personal than a company with a big sterile kennel/facility. Would highly recommend.
Erin & Jennifer did an outstanding job in training our girl “Doris” for 3 weeks at their home. We dropped off a 14 month old Australian Labradoodle that had no training at all and was continuously jumping on people wanting to play. After only 3 weeks of their training, we received back a totally different bog!. She…
Jennifer and Aaron are amazing. They worked with me and my golden retriever, Mavis, on a three week board and train. Prior to training Mavis was your typical over excitable golden. She loved everyone and everything too much, if you know what I mean. Now I have a dog who can be with the family full time instead…
Words cannot express how thankful I am to Aaron and Jen - they are miracle workers!! They have made a night and day difference with my pup. She now listens on command and I genuinely can't get enough of taking her out, which is a huge change from before (non-stop barking and pulling). She is the most well behaved,…
We cannot recommend Lucky Star Dog Training & Boarding enough! Our one-year-old Boston Terrier, Darla, is the sweetest girl, but before training, she struggled with distractibility, impulsivity, and excitement. She could also be quite demanding, which made everyday life a bit more challenging. Walks were a chore in…
Wow, I would give 10 stars if I could! Our lab puppy was trained by Aaron and Jen and it totally changed our lives. She has always been the sweetest dog but needed boundaries and to learn how to live in our house with lots of commotion. We have been blown away by how she is thriving at home with the skills she’s…
Before attending the 3 week board and train Rex was a happy goofy off the wall puppy. He didn’t understand that not everything was a threat that needed a good barking at. On walks he would bark at people, chase after anything that moved and frequently not listen to me when I would say no. I arrived for pickup and…
We were referred to Lucky Star Dog Training by three of our friends after we got our first puppy, Allie (golden doodle). We couldn’t be more thankful for Jennifer and Aaron and the care and training they gave to our Allie girl! Two of the hardest things we were navigating with a 40lb puppy was how hard she yanked…
I took my 8 month old poodle Rocky for the Board and Train program back in February. He is a sweet boy, but he would always pull on walks and jump on people (out of excitement of course). Before enrolling I was extremely hesitant about the e-collar training. However, Jen and Aaron addressed every single concern I…
During the 3-week board and train, Aaron was very detailed on Canela's stay and provided all the pictures and videos which was greatly appreciated I was so amazed to see all her improvements and accomplishments during her stay. At the time she went she basically only knew sit and to see her go from that to healing…
I sent my dog, Wally, to Lucky Star Dog Training and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Before training, he was a total handful—chaotic, stubborn, and did whatever he wanted. Now he listens, has great manners, and can even walk off-leash, which I never thought would be possible. The difference in his…
They did such a great job with our golden Sven. Before Sven was very disruptive in our life always getting a right up in our business and frustrating our two-year-old to no end by knocking him over all the time. But now he knows to go to his place and he stays there until we release him. We go on walks and don’t…
We are so glad we decided to enroll our Charlie in the 3-week board and train program. The difference has been incredible. He's more responsive, listens better, and we feel much more confident working with him and continuing his training at home. Before training, even simple things like getting him back inside…
Lucky Star Dog Training changes lives. Pepper is as smart as they get but she was lacking confidence -- walking in the neighborhood was particularly difficult (especially on trash day). Any hydraulic break or loud noise would send her running for the hills. She had a tough time settling in the house and as a…
I highly highly recommend Lucky Star! They had been recommended to me by friends and family and I will forever be thankful I went through with their board & train for my rescue pitbull mix. I already have friends looking to use them for their dogs because the difference has been that impactful!
Jen is the best trainer hands down! She changed everything for us with our Bulldog Cricket. It’s so simple to follow the easy instructions to keep things running smoothly now that Cricket is back from training. I was worried I’d have a million different things to learn for myself when I picked her up but nope! Easy…
We had a great experience with Lucky Star Dog Training. Before training, our 9-month-old German Shorthaired Pointer was super rambunctious, hard to control, and tough to walk without pulling. Since training he’s very responsive to general commands and actually enjoyable to take on walks. What really stood out was…
Short Review: I cannot recommend Lucky Star enough!! Sign your pup up now; you will not regret this! Long Review: When we first adopted our pup, Carl, he was about 4 months old. A friend of ours recommended we send him to Lucky Star; this is what he had done with his dog. We were slightly hesitant; partly the cost,…
Jen and Aaron are truly amazing! We sent our 9 month old bernedoodle Beau to them for training and he came back a different dog!! So well behaved and he now has folded in perfectly with us and our 3 young kids. We have since sent him for overnight/weekend boarding as well and we know he is in good hands!! We are soo…
