What made my experience great
What made my experience great, you ask? First, our customer service representative, Matthew. Wow! Matthew was so professional and a pleasure to work with and speak with! He made the entire process and the understanding of the package we chose to go with smooth, easy to understand and quick! Matthew had a chance to speak with my mother, who referred me to DogAcademy, after purchasing a package herself. He was so very kind and personable with her and I really do appreciate that. Great job, DogAcademy, you have two very happy customers here and that doesn't begin to touch on how amazing my mother says the Psychiatric Service Dog Training course is and how it has already saved her over $225 in hotel fees and peace of mind, while staying in a hotel for a major surgery. This was for her beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel just in the month since finishing her training course. So thank you, DogAcademy, for taking such good care of my mother, my wonderful experience, and a big thank you, especially, to Matthew!

Very educational class
Very educational class. Enjoyed the videos as well as the content. I feel confident that this, along with our previous training will help us pass the test. Short, consistent training sessions lasting 15-20 minutes almost every day makes a big difference.

I have a very rare disability
I have a very rare disability, Broken-heart syndrome (takotsubo cardiomyopathy), among other more common ones as a consequence! It took me years to register my beloved service animal, because I never had any problems with him due to the laws imposed on entering public places or traveling. Only now would I like to have an ID for him! Now a very big warning: STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY THAT TAKES YOUR MONEY!! IT IS ONLY UNNECESSARY ANNOYANCE! VERY DISAPPOINTING! I advise you to get information on the ADA.gov website! On this US government website you will have all the support and true guidance you need! Because at this DogAcademy, you will lose your health and your money! They represent well, be careful, they should deserve an Oscar!!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your interactions, and we’d like to address your concerns directly.
First, it’s important to clarify that Dog Academy does not provide service dog ID cards, as these are not required by law under the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). We are a training organization focused on helping handlers and their service animals through effective and compassionate training programs. For accurate legal information regarding service animals, we fully agree with your recommendation to visit ADA.gov.
Regarding your experience, we were happy to assist you and support your service dog’s training journey. However, completing the Public Access Test (PAT) requires video submissions to evaluate the dog’s skills and ensure readiness. Unfortunately, you refused to submit the necessary videos, which prevented us from completing the certification process. Additionally, our evaluator reported verbal abuse during your interactions, which goes against our commitment to providing a respectful and supportive environment for all clients.
We understand the challenges associated with managing a rare condition like Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, and we truly empathize with your situation. We aim to work collaboratively with our clients to provide guidance and tools that enhance the bond with their service animal.
If you’d like to revisit this process and work toward a solution, we are here to help. Please feel free to reach out to our support team.
Wishing you and your pet the best,
The Dog Academy Team
