Anita helped us with the whole onboarding process and was so great about explaining things in a clear and simple way so I knew exactly what to expect from the beginning. Rina was our trainer and she was so amazing! First, she came to our house to pick the dogs up. That was amazing! Her communication was also great. I felt so at peace about my dogs staying and learning with her. She would update me frequently, and I knew she was giving my dogs love, care, and attention that I had hoped for. My dogs came back and are doing absolutely amazing! We have two wild and excited mini golden doodles, that have come back happy but will actually listen! Even my less than a year old puppy is listening better and able to calm down in a way that I couldn’t get her to before. Rina has been great about checking in and communicating even after the boarding portion is over. The cost may feel steep at first, but for two well-behaved dogs it’s sooo worth it! Overall, I am so pleased with this whole experience.

Our experience with Wise Acadamy was great. The trainer they paired us with Njoud Aghabi was a perfect fit for us. She was amazing with our dog Leah. Njoud was professional, knowledgable in her craft. She was loving, and caring to Leah meeting all her needs and ours. Leah has a disability and Njoud managed to get creative providing solutions to train Leah. Njoud provided consistent updates and videos to keep us inform of her progress. In our eyes Njoud went above and beyond. Thank you to Njoud Aghabi and to Wise Acadamy.

We were in the worst of places with our dog. I could write a novel about what a nightmare he was with pulling, barking, dog aggression, dominance displays...and our trainer would agree that he was a monster. Yet in 4 weeks, Jacks worked a miracle. I can now walk Atlas on a loose leash. He's quiet in a crate at all times. He's not lunging and snarling at other dogs. Not only did he work with Atlas, but also gave us the tools to make this investment successful Do yourself, your dog and their standing in your family a favor. If you have ever thought about doing boarded training, this is the time, the place and the person. I can't say enough about how grateful I am to Jacks for the peace this has brought us all.

Trainer Vicente is incredible! Vicente is super professional and knows his stuff. When we first met at our place, our dog was terrified of him. But after just 15 minutes, our pup was all over him, letting the trainer pet him. Our dog was a different dog! He was calm and listened to everything the trainer said. He showed us how to keep our dog on a leash and set boundaries. He really listened to our situation and asked a lot of questions about our goals. He gave us tons of tips and answered every single question we had. We made a plan for the week that’s already working for our pup. We’re so happy with the trainer and can’t wait to work with him again. I would highly recommend this trainer to anyone looking for a great trainer.

Dogwise Academy is a good company it was seamless to enroll my puppy in the program. The weekly report cards was informative. I received several phone calls,emails and texts to address any concerns I had. Rina Sullivan is an amazing dog trainer. I am very pleased with her training methods. Rina boarded my puppy Sky, for 7 weeks; through 2 hurricanes. Sky is a high energy, head strong, yet loving, 5-month, 50 lbs. Black Mouth Cur/German Shepherd mix; with an attention span of about 10 seconds. Rina not only taught Sky the essentials commands, she came home potty trained! Rina's love for what she does was/is demonstrated in the great care Sky received. I was able to track Sky's process through the numerous videos and daily reports Rina sent. This put my mind at is ease as I was able see my fur baby. Rina is also generous with her time, before and after Sky return home. Always answering any questions I had/have and making helpful suggestions, as well as having follow training sessions with me at home. Sky love her! & I highly recommend her! Addie

I’m so grateful for the care and attention that Njoud from Dogwise gave our Shiba Inu. Shiba’s are notoriously sensitive and ours took some time to get adjusted to a new surrounding. Njoud’s special care (adjusting her approach to his personality) and use of positive reinforcement helped our dog eventually thrive and have fun while learning. Communication was great and I always received helpful updates and tips to continue training at home. Highly recommend Njoud for anyone looking for a board and train.

Briggs and a rough start in life. He was found tied to a fire hydrant, showing signs of physical abuse and severe starvation. We took care of his physical needs and helped him gain weight, but we struggled with training hi. Briggs was very reactive, not fully house trained, refused to go in the crate, and was difficult to walk. Everything changed when Tressie entered our lives; she was truly a godsend for Both Briggs and our family. Briggs stayed with Tressie for 4 weeks and returned a completely different dog., fitting perfectly back into our family. Tressie was transparent throughout the process, sharing daily training videos and communicating with us promptly. Not only was Briggs trained, but we were also educated on how to continue his training. Since Briggs has been home, we have diligently followed the training techniques we learned, and we improve everyday with Tressie’s ongoing support. We give Tressie and Dogwise Academy five amazing stars

I think Tressie is a wonderful trainer. I can truly see the changes that she worked on with Harlem. My biggest issue was his walking and leash manners. I used to dread having to go for a walk with Harlem and most times would just walk around the block because he was such a wild child. But now he walks with a purpose. He has more structure. He’s listening to me when I tell him to leave other dogs alone and just walk or sit. And if he’s not listening, Tressie has shown me the right way to apply the right pressure so I only need to say my commands once. I’m also super impressed by how good his place command is now. Harlem already knew the place command but he was very spoiled so he would not stay in place for a long time. He would sneakily slide out of his place when I was not watching.Now when I say place he stays put for hours until I release him. He has tried to test the boundaries with the place command since he’s been home but I have been doing my best to stay strict with him so he knows I mean business. Jumping was a big thing for me too and I have noticed that he still does it here and there but he listens when I say OFF and will sit in front of me. Lastly getting the daily updates from Tressie was super helpful especially when I missed my little fur baby. You could truly see the progress her and Harlem made from start to finish finish. Harlem used to only work for food but now I see the drastic shift to him listening without being rewarded with a treat every single time he does something. I have nothing but nice things to say about Tressie and her training with Harlem. Definitely a great value for the investment. I will be recommending your program to every dog owner friend I know.
