WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY:
Bodhi’s parents:
"With all of Bodhi’s genetic background he was a bit of an alpha male and had issues of being dominant, but through the love and work Janette and I have put into him he has become one of the most socially pleasant and smartest dogs to be around. We can’t thank Janette enough for her diligence and hard work, releasing his loyal dog essence we all know they have. I have her listed in my phone as a DOG WHISPERER."
Ringo’s parents:
“R+Dog is Ringo’s home away from home. He absolutely loves going to school during the week. We are forever grateful for R+ Dog for helping us with our rambunctious baby and teaching us to manage him in a positive, fun and knowledgeable way. R+ Dog has added so much meaning to our lives and we can see a significant improvement in Ringo.”
Waffles’ mom hannah:
“We adopted Waffles in May 2024 and got him into R+ Dog the following month. At first, he was unsure about other dogs and needed slow intros, but now he has so many friends at R+ Dog day school! It’s great to see him learning and having fun, while burning off his energy. Janette treats every dog like her own, and I wouldn’t trust Waffles with anyone else!”
Addie’s parents:
“We love R+ Dog because when we travel, we know Addie is in the best hands. She’s not just in a loving home with incredible trainers - she’s also surrounded by playful dog friends and learning new skills every day. Janette and her team are so welcoming, and Addie is always thrilled to walk through their door!”
Precious’ Mom Alex
"Precious came to us from rural Alabama. While she was incredibly friendly, she didn’t really know how to be a ‘dog.’ With Janette’s help, Precious has learned so many important manners, especially helpful since she’s a bigger pup! She now goes to Day School twice a week to keep building her skills and becoming the best dog she can be."
Putter’s parents:
“We are over the moon with Putter’s progress since we started sending him to R+ dog. They’ve been working with him since he was just 3 months old, he’s a typical high-energy, low-attention-span doodle, and we can definitely attribute all of his good manners to the amazing R+ trainers. Not only is the training aspect of their program outstanding, but R+ is also the only boarding facility we trust to take care of him. We can leave town knowing he’s safe, well cared for, and having the best time. The peace of mind this gives us is priceless. The entire R+ team is always professional, kind, and flexible. Putter loves them as much as we do!”
enzo’s parents:
“R+ Dog is our dog's home away from home, and their team is like family. When we first began R+ Dog's day training program, we didn't know where to turn to change our dog's behavior issues. They transformed his behavior, and his socialization skills are outstanding having been around the other dogs on a consistent basis.”
Oscar’s parents:
“We love the R+ Dog team! Training with them is consistently helping Oscar gain good experiences to overcome his fears and become a more confident dog. He love going to day training, and we love having a trustworthy team to board him with when we are away.”
Otto’s parents:
“We chose R+ Dog because of their team of trainers. Otto loves each and every one of them, as do we! As a work from home family, we absolutely love the day school program because it gives us a safe space to take Otto during the workday where he will be stimulated and socialized. He looks forward to his school days and is so excited to see his friends! It makes us so happy to drop him off at a place he loves.”
Benny’s mom laney:
“Starting Benny at such a young age with R+ Dog Day School was one of the best decisions I’ve made as a first-time dog owner! With the help of Janette and Emma, Benny went from being an overly excited and anxious puppy to responding to commands with confidence and focus. The structured yet fun sessions make it easy for Benny to learn, and the positive reinforcement methods have really helped build his trust and enthusiasm for training. I’ll never get over his face every time we pull up to school!”
Krewe’s mom heather:
“Krewe had some bully tendencies, and I wanted to help him be his best self. R+ Dog has been incredible in guiding us every step of the way.”
Lady’s parents:
"R+ Dog did an amazing job laying the foundation for obedience. After just one week in their Board & Train program, we’ve noticed a huge difference in how Lady responds to commands."
Carmela’s parentS:
“When we adopted Carmela in the summer of 2023, we were recommended R+ Dog for her initial puppy obedience and training. After completing her board-and-train program, we were blown away by her progress in skills like socializing, recall, and potty training. Now, any time we go out of town, Carmela boards with R+ Dog, and she always comes home happy (and tired!). Janette keeps us updated throughout her stay, and we have complete peace of mind knowing she’s safe, cared for, and in great hands. We couldn’t recommend R+ Dog more!”
Lou and Ruby’s parents:
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about R+Dog! Janette and her team are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. They get to know each dog’s individual personality and needs, and are extremely accommodating. My dogs go crazy with excitement when they realize they’re going to “school”, are obviously very well cared for, and come home exhausted and ready to sleep. The quality of the training and socialization my dogs have received through the boarding and the day training programs is outstanding. I would never want to send my pups anywhere else!”
Carl’s parents:
“We chose to board and train our new puppy Carl with R+ Dog because how important socialization and training is for a young pup. R + Dog took every moment to be a learning opportunity from socialization with other dogs, field trips, and teaching him how to turn off and relax when needed. Carl absolutely loved it, and now he loves going back for day training to keep learning!”
Ziggy’s mom Stephanie:
“We rescued Ziggy as a puppy and wanted to ensure he received the best training and socialization. After Ziggy’s puppy training, we continued with the day training program twice a week. Ziggy loves school and spending time with all his friends and trainers. R+ Dog also successfully prepared him to reign as “King Ziggy” for the Mardi Paws Parade on the Northshore. Ziggy wouldn’t be the amazing pup he is today without R+ Dog!”
Olive’s dad casey:
“I went to R+ Dog so Olive could attend puppy school. As a first time dog owner I had no idea what I was doing and going to Janette’s puppy school was one of the best decisions I made. It socialized Olive with all different sizes of dogs, learned basic commands, and had a safe environment where it could be done. Since I had a great experience at puppy school I reached back out to Janette with private lessons because Olive was leash pulling on our walks and wanted to work on our recall skills. Now, we see Janette once a week for play group where Olive can continue her training/recall and socialize with dogs.”
Astro’s parents:
“We absolutely love the team at R+ Dog, and so does Astro! They’ve helped Astro develop so much and have provided him with a structured place to socialize, and receive one on one training. The Board & Train program also takes out so much stress when we travel. We truly can’t imagine our lives without R+ Dog!”
Lala and Mookie’s Parents:
“Lala was rescued from a dumpster at just three months old - lethargic and in need of love. With care and time, she became the energetic, spirited pup we adore. That’s when we found R+ Dog. Their training, patience, and care helped Lala thrive. Then came Mookie. We weren’t planning on a second dog, but after seeing him play with Lala at R+, we decided to foster him. Within a day, we knew he was staying. He and Lala have been inseparable ever since - playing, cuddling, And keeping us laughing. Thanks to R+ Dog, our little family is complete.”
Bruno and Lizzy’s parents:
“Janette and her team are amazing! We started Bruno and Lizzy in R+ Dog’s puppy class, which gave them a great foundation, and later moved to daycare training - a total game changer for our two large, reactive pups. Now they get to socialize, train, and have fun in a safe, loving environment. Janette and the team even brought them to our wedding so we could have the sweetest photos! We’re so grateful for the care, patience, and expert advice they give us and our lovable handfuls.”
Harry’s parents:
“R+ Dog has helped us so much with our energetic pitbull/boxer puppy Harry. We couldn’t have gotten through crate training without them. Janette and her team are so knowledgeable and helpful, I’d recommend them to anyone.”
