Karma Dog Training Carlsbad, California

The Kindergarten class with Aimee was great. I needed help to begin my American Staffordshire with socialization with other puppies and people. I felt very safe with the sanitizing because Kingston just had his first set of shots. I highly recommend this company and staff!

I called them and was directed to their website for an instant response over a phone call. I think the response from the website took about 3 days. My review does not cover using Karma Dog training. My initial call was around New Year's, so I kind of understand, but we were going on a trip and were very interested in training and boarding. There is no such thing as an instant response with Karma Dog Training in my experience.

I work with Amee, who teaches the puppy kindergarten and puppy 2 classes. I also went to the PetSmart obedience classes. The difference is night and day. I have a border collie puppy who’s extremely intelligent and i train her every day. Petsmart forces you to take the puppy beginners class before the intermediate and my puppy didn’t learn a single thing. Further, they give your puppy ZERO socialization despite having 6 other dogs in the class. Finally, the petsmart trainer doesn’t seem to pay much attention to my puppy because she already knows everything being taught. On the other hand, Amee’s class allows a full 30 minutes of structured play, which is what a high energy puppy like mine NEEDS. Play time is a fun training session where my pup learns how to interact with other dogs and we’re taught how to enforce boundaries. Even my smart border collie is learning something new each and every class, as opposed to being bored out of her mind in the petsmart class. I’ve recommended amee to every dog owner I meet who’s looking to train dogs. Notably, I’ve had Amee come over to work on resource guarding with my pup, and the behavior is starting to vanish. Even without buying a session, I feel like I can ask Amee questions here and there when I’m lost and don’t know how to proceed with certain things.

We're only on week 3 but both me and my pup are enjoying these affordable and highly effective training classes!

We have taken three dogs here. Great place especially if you have a dog that struggles interacting with other dogs.

We attended puppy class taught by Mel and Aimee. I appreciated their patience with the dogs, and with me as I asked questions. I highly recommend the class for anyone who would like to get his or her dog off to the best start.
