External review via Google / About the Puppy class

Emanuela with Bodi (Great Dane)

We found them online and it was the best choice ever. We followed the puppy course training lessons for our Great Dane Bodi. It is amazing the progress he’s made! He is going to be a very large dog, but he is very gentle and super responsive even when we are at the park with other dogs. Many other dog’s owner have complimented on us about how much he listens when we call him. The advice trainers gave were always helpful, and we practice them regularly. We are looking forward to start soon the obedience course. Highly recommended!!

Martijn with Max (Labradoodle)

Great place to deepen the bond with your dog, and to learn that training can be fun (for you and for your dog!). Laure-Anne is great in her dealings with dogs and the ‘owners’. Our Labradoodle, Max, came into our house when he was 2 years old already. This course helped put us on track to him feeling completely at home in the family!

Sandhya with Roku (Shiba Inu)

Laure Anne was great in training my puppy Roku. He was very bad with recall and that was the reason why I wanted obedience training. After training he listens quite well and has become much more disciplined. All thanks to ohmydog training school.. Laure Anne is so helpful and supportive. Would highly recommend her..

Eva with Zoey (Border Terrier)

The fun class was really nice and so much fun. I found the general atmosphere and the approach really good. And the beautiful surroundings. Even the start/end times were convenient. Zoey enjoyed herself, really, and that’s what it’s all about.
