Looking forward to the intermediate class! And once "we" get a little older the agility class will be a blast!!!

 recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Kaylee is legit AMAZING to work with. Before working with her walking our small dog and our puppy who was maybe 20lbs at the time was a nightmare. Today the puppy is 70lbs and I can walk both of them easily. Kaylee is open to modifying methods to what works for your dog and doesnt try and force them into a box. She is also so understanding of the "more difficult" breeds. She never trys to make them what they arent, She loved our rottie maggie for who she was. Ive taken both the beginner, intermediate and personal classes and will definitely be taking anything else she offers!! I hardly trust anyone to care for our dogs and will bw boarding our dogs with her for an upcoming wedding. I seriously can not recommend her enough ❤️

 recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We left our 5 1/2 month Newfie with Kaylee for 2 wks. She did a wonderful job with him! She sends daily videos that not only help with the missing of your pet, but are very informative. She is there to help even after the transition home. I highly recommend her. I will be using her in the future for any needs.

 recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We sent our Goldendoodle for a 2 week board and train. He was about 4.5 months and really needed to work on some impulse control (like lots of puppies). This girl had him sitting and holding a stay IN PUBLIC while walking out of sight. To say that we are so thrilled with his progress is an understatement! The updates, communication, and RESULTS were just amazing!

 recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Where do I even start?! Kaylee knows what she is doing and is doing so with amazing intention and heart. She is a wealth of knowledge in this work and connects with people and their pups on a deeper level. No matter how knowledgeable she is on this stuff, she is always expanding her learning and opening her mind to new perspectives. 10/10 recommend Canine Unifursity for all your pups behavioral needs!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We sent our one and a half year old German Shepherd for the 3 week reactivity board and train program and were blown away by the results. Prior to going through the program Kaiser was unpredictable and would lunge towards other dogs and people so we were not comfortable taking him places with us. Since going we have been able to take him camping with us and enjoy the relationship and trust that Canine Unifursity helped us build. We would highly recommend the board and train programs offered by Canine Unifursity!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't say enough good things about Kaylee and Jake! After reading so many different things online, I was nervous about an e-collar. But they put all of my fears to rest. The way they use it was the right decision for us. They treated our Abby like family. She loves them SO much!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We sent our 2 year old great pyrenees mix to Canine Unifursity and couldn't be more thankful for them and the work they put into Spud! After 3 weeks with them he's visibly more confident and we can take him on all the walks with confidence that he isn't going to react to other dogs/his surroundings!

They both did such an amazing job, sent updates all the time so i could see his progression. They worked magic, I never thought I would see my dog this well trained.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have a 7 month old Cane Corso named Forza who is strong-willed and  likes to listen and do things on her own time-line. Kaylee and Jake were wonderful showing patience and perseverance during Forza's 2 week board/train. I really enjoyed the video updates they would send to me showing her progress.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our dog, Comet, was born in COVID and never got any socialization as a puppy. He had a history of being super bossy, chasing small dogs, and basically running our household.    Then we found Canine Unifursity! We have been soooo pleasantly pleased with the change we see in him after the 3-week reactivity program. They helped us understand the why behind his behavior, sent us daily updates and training videos, and made sure we were equipped to continue when Comet came home. It's an investment for sure, but we are so glad we did it!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an incredible experience from start to finish with Canine Unifursity! We had our 11 month old mini golden doodle, Lizzie, go to their 4 week board and train program. There are so many positive things I could say about Kaylee and this program, but here are just a few :)
-Initially, the idea of sending Lizzie away for 4 weeks felt so hard, but upon communicating and meeting Kaylee all of those reservations went away. They truly love the dogs they work with and I had perfect peace with Lizzie working and living with Jake and Kaylee! You can tell this is not just a job to them and they invest so much time, energy, and love.
-The communication throughout Lizzie’s whole program was excellent. We loved and appreciated the videos of Lizzie and her training. It also greatly helped my family and I to know how we could be successful with Lizzie upon her return home. We did not know how to communicate our wants and needs to Lizzie and now we have the ability to do that-total game changer!!
-I appreciated how Kaylee made sure to ask and work on the specific issues with Lizzie that were important to us. A few issues that Lizzie had that we really wanted corrected were she would not come when we called, jumping on people, pulling when lease walking. ALL of those and more have been resolved and so many new skills learned on top of those!!
-Prior to Lizzie’s training with Jake and Kaylee there were so many aspects of dog ownership that were stressful and frustrating and now there is SO much JOY and EASE (for my family, our guests, and Lizzie)!!
-Canine Unifursity has been such a blessing to our family and we would recommend them to any and everyone!!!!

ODIN the 7 month old French Bulldog, is a graduate of our 3 Week Advanced Board & Train program! 🐶🐾🦴We were thrilled to welcome Odin as another one of our peer-to-peer industry clients, as he comes from a breeder / guardian home looking to ensure his temperament is maximized. He comes from a wonderful genetic line, and they hope he will become a fabulous stud dog for them. Odin arrived to his new home with some posturing / rude behaviors toward other dogs, at just the young age of 4 months, paired with some reactivity. While they loved his natural confidence, they also knew that throughout his life he was going to be in many busy spaces, meeting other dogs and people, and they needed him to be the perfect gentleman. Odin absolutely excelled in his program, maintaining his confidence while learning how to engage with other dogs and exist in busy public spaces in a polite way. We can’t wait to see what Odin does in life. CONGRATS ODIN & FAMILY! 🎊🎉🎓🐾 ...
