Dog Academy is outstanding!
I’ve been working with Krystal Abadie for a while and she is really terrific- extremely knowledgeable, a great communicator, and responsive to the needs and challenges I’ve brought to her in training my dog. He has made great progress and is such a wonderful companion that I can take anywhere with me and count on him in making friends all along the way as well as being quiet and good company when needed. Dog academy as a whole has been helpful and good to work with - I highly recommend dog academy.

Our Scotty is finally responding.
We have been working with Krystal A for some time now and our Scotty has responded and learned from her teaching more than any other trainers we've had. She's extremely knowledgeable and a very pet friendly person. Our Scotty still has a ways to go with his training, but his behavior has improved tremendously under Krystal's direction.

Great Psychiatric Service Dog training course, highly recommended
The online course is very thorough and informational, I learned a lot and it was easy to follow along. I feel I have a good understanding of the subject. I had to call several times support and they responded within minutes with a complete solution. Thank you

This was good training somewhat
This was good training. Just Reiterating what I already knew. I don’t think it was worth the $$ I spent. I could have watched a YouTube video and gotten the same results.
I just took a second course (I purchased 2 at once). I should’ve waited it was the same course almost verbatim. I want my money back!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear that you found the training helpful, even if it primarily reinforced knowledge you already had.
We understand that every learner comes to our courses with different levels of experience, and for those who are already familiar with the material, some concepts may serve as a refresher rather than entirely new information. Your comments regarding the value of the course are appreciated and will be taken into consideration as we continue to improve our training programs and educational content at Dog Academy.
Thank you again for your honest review and for giving our course a try.
This is a waste of $40
This is a waste of $40. There isn’t any information that can’t be found in a million free articles online. I was hoping to get more specific information and guidance.

Not worth it
The exact same thing I paid almost $40 for I have read in free articles already. Also this needs to be updated we are not living in the COVID Era and this needs to be updated.

What I learned during this course was truly excellent.
My friends tell me that I "humanize" my pet, but that isn't the case.
She is part of my personality, and I am part of hers; we are a team. She relieves my emotional tension, and I serve as her "emotional" support.
She isn't just my pet—no, she is part of my life.
Thank you for the advice.
