We found Austin Dog Zone through Google when we were trying to find options for having our new puppy watched while we were out of town. We didn’t want to go the kennel route, so board and training seemed like an excellent alternative. Jack was just about two months old at the time, though we’d only had him for about a week and a half. He was making progress on his training but we wanted to keep it going and strengthen it while we were out of town, instead of having him forget. We couldn’t have b… Read more

We can’t thank Austin Dog Zone enough! Rex was becoming possessive of guests in our home and we couldn’t have people over. We hadn’t had people over in years because we were nervous Rex would react. Now he is much more relaxed and our dogs are not fighting. The best part is that I can finally have guests over again!

Hi Laura! This evening a woman asked me if I was a professional dog trainer because Loki was so well-behaved. (We were practicing stay/recall) When I said no she offered to pay me to train her dog anyway! Anyway, that’s the best endorsement I can give ADZ. Loki is so well trained people think I’m a pro and it’s all thanks to you guys!

Rose and I can’t tell you enough how happy we are with Luna’s progress and your training (of us and her!) All my life I have wanted a well trained dog and it looks like we are going to have one this time. Thanks again for your help and for your generosity of your time.

Austin Dog Zone helped me address my dog’s leash reactivity in just a few lessons. The change was impressive and made my life, and my dog’s, so much better.

A big thank you to Austin Dog Zone for helping me and my dog, Joni, to learn to overcome leash aggression by providing the fundamentals needed to achieve success in turning this behavior around. They gave us all the tools necessary to keep the momentum going. The rest is up to Joni and me.

I knew that Rue had the potential, but she lacked manners and obedience. She wouldn’t listen to me and had a terrible habit of chasing our horses. I had always had hunting dogs and admittedly used force and traditional methods in the past for dog training. I’ll be the first to admit that the dogs lost their spirit and personality after being trained this way. My hunting dogs always acted fearful of being punished. I didn’t want to do that with Rue, so I began looking for another way. Read more.… Read more

Austin Dog Zone has been Amazing!!! We have learned so much while working with Caitlin and Laura. We learned how to better communicate with our puppies. Lady our newest addition has come so far and has started coming out of her shell in only a few short months.

Caitlin was super patient with my dogs and respected them and most importantly didn’t give up on them. I would recommend this business to any and all of my friends and plan to get more help from them for one individual dog who was a problem with children. Both Caitlin and Laura are very sweet, easy to get in contact with and great to do business with!–Stephanie M.

The folks at Austin Dog Zone gave our puppy Henry such a wonderful time at both our private lessons and his board and train. It was our first time leaving him, so we were obviously very nervous, but he ended up having so much fun, I think he was a little sad to come back home! I would certainly recommend using Austin Dog Zone for all your training and boarding needs.
