Excellent experience with Briana at Canine University. Very knowledgeable on pet behavior ( in my case a dog), explains the why of the behavior and how to address/ correct. Our puppy needs potty training and she was very interested in understanding our needs and best plan to implement. Highly recommend her expertise and services.

Brianna is an amazing dogtrainer. My puppies were so responsive with her. She was very kind and used positive reinforcement to encourage my puppies and she provided treats as a favor to motivate them during the training process. I look forward to intensifying additional training sessions in the near future, as my puppies mature more. I appreciate all of your great tips in helping me establish permanent results during the training process.

Brianna taught us a lesson we never would have come up with ourselves, which has greatly improved our relationship with our pooch! With the addition of helpful commands, our little guy will live a happier life. We highly recommend!

Brianna is an excellent trainer. She’s helped me to understand and form a stronger bond with my goldendoodle puppy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with a new puppy ir having problems understanding your puppy’s behavior.

Hey Andrew, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review.
Andrew's puppy was displaying fear based aggression towards the family through snarling and bearing teeth and full blown biting. He received training advice from friends and online regarding puppies being mouthy and biting, the techniques were ineffective and making the situation worse. After I came in for one session, they already started to see improvement in their puppies behavior. We are moving into our 3rd private lesson to teach obedience training with positive reinforcement methods only.

I cannot recommend enough! She is absolutely wonderful to work with—always on time, incredibly professional, and deeply knowledgeable about her craft. Her calm, patient approach and clear communication make every session productive and enjoyable. It’s clear she truly cares about both her clients and their dogs, and the results speak for themselves. My service dog has grown tremendously under her guidance, and I feel so supported throughout the process. If you’re looking for a skilled, reliable, and genuinely kind trainer, Canine University is the one!

Meredith thank you so much for this amazing review!
training Bentley was so much fun because man she is an Einstein. She's the perfect example of an "old dog can learn new tricks". Training a 6-year-old dog to retrieve medication in 10 days was quite the challenge! Thank you for the opportunity and wishing you and your service dog the best !
