Frogs to Dogs Decatur, Georgia

I am a trainer here . This is the only facility I would trust my animals with.

Great reliable service. Very easy to schedule dog boarding services. We have used many times the boarding with a trainer (Kyle). Easy and convenient drop off and pick up. Kyle goes above and beyond taking care of our puppy Coco and accommodating our busy schedule. He is great at replying our text messages and sends us pictures of Coco during his stay. Coco is always happy to see him! We will recommend without hesitation.

I’m a new cat owner and mildly obsessed with my cats. I was nervous about trying out random apps and found Frogs to Dogs. One of my cats is special needs and requires multiple medications 2x a day. Sarah came over before hand and met the family and made me feel at ease with all my crazy notes. She texted photos during every visit with an update. I looked forward to her texts and know she visited with care. Would definitely use again!

We’ve been bringing our 3yo Basenji-Pit mix to FTD for around a year now. He did a few day camps then was accepted to come to group classes. The unlimited group training package is such an incredible value. Our boy has progressed so much in his reactivity to other dogs and does not pull on leash as he used to. The class trainers (s/o to Tom, Kat and Bonita and everyone who does the group classes really) We are bringing our second dog here as well, and have full confidence the FTD classes will shape her progress in the right direction.

Frogs to Dogs has been a great experience for me- and my dog! We have used a house visit, day camp, lifetime class membership (which is a great deal), and CGC class. Walking my dog has gone from stressful and embarrassing to relaxing and fun with the positive reinforcement training we received here. Bonita’s training during loose leash walking classes and Canine Good Citizen was fantastic, and I highly recommend going to her although all the staff has been great.

Really great staff that are wholeheartedly committed to safety and positive training. My rescued shepherd dog is quite a handful and they’ve done great work with him. Once he is done with his heartworm treatments, I hope to restart with them.

We got a puppy who was already 6 months old with no manners and needed much work with socialization. Frogs to dogs crew has taught our dog how to be a good girl and us how to be good fur baby parents. Thank you.

My pup was initially terrified of dogs and men. I started taking him to day camp and though the first couple of times he shrieked like a banshee being taken in, he runs in to see everyone now without a second glance at me! Now we focus on group classes and they are all fantastic! Extra kudos to Bonita. She is truly there to help improve your relationship with your dog and what she says makes sense in class, at home, on a walk, and in dangerous situations where you want to protect your pup.

My dog Millie was much better after we took her to Frogs to Dogs. WHen we were having trouble getting Millie into the building, a man helped us, and gave a private lesson.

I cannot say anything about the dog daycare and bootcamp, since I have only gone to group classes with my baby Coco. What I can say is that the classes have been helping me a lot. I mainly go to the advanced leashed walking through decatur and the intermidiate basic obidience, which are lead by Bonita. She is an EXCELLENT trainer, and her unique way of teaching is effective to teach our furry babies and ourselves. She has helped me get a better connection with my dog, and helped her starting to listen to me. Thanks a lot for that! I really like the way she teaches, and her advice is always welcome and useful. Sometimes we need somebody that tells us that we are doing things wrong more than once. To train a dog takes time, and to whoever is reading this, just think that a miracle won't happen in 2 days of group classes. Perseverance is the key. Keep going, accept criticism, and correct yourself, and results will happen.

Luna has been going to Frogs Day Camp since last June. She’s learned so much and is always so excited to see the trainers and her dog friends. The videos are helpful and we love that Luna gets one on one time with staff as well as breaks and play time. Zsolt and Schelby get her tail wagging and we’ve learned so much from the trainers too! Also, Leena has been such an incredible addition to the day camp staff! Her interpersonal skills help all of us dog owners feel relaxed during drop off. :)

very good talk I am looking forward to doing business with you guys

Great, caring staff and I love the daily report cards and videos. Cant think of a better place to take your pet for new skills or reviewing old ones.

My dog is very leash reactive. He has only been twice and I have already seen improvements. I love that the trainers make videos of their training throughout the day and they upload a report card at the end of the day. You can tell that everyone cares about the pups so I feel very comfortable leaving my dog there.

I take my dogs to daycamp (typically weekly) and have boarded them with Zsolt for a weekend and Schelby for a week while out of town. They always come back happy, worn out, and better behaved. I have a large dog who is reactive towards other dogs. He is so much better since he started training at Frogs to Dogs and it gives me peace of mind (especially on vacation) to leave him with trainers that know his limits and I trust to keep him safe.

Lee worked with our family through private lessons. I'd expected to train our rescue pup to address his specific issues like food guarding and demand barking, but Lee's approach to teaching basic commands with positive reinforcement immediately helped improve each behavior that concerned us. Our pup was a quick study and learned quickly, the real work Lee put in was with the humans. We enjoyed working with Lee and appreciated how effectively he communicated with us and our pup. I highly recommend.

Love Frogs to Dogs. Lee Buckton was our trainer for our first lesson with Lobo. Lee made training very easy and fun. He provided simple solutikns to the problems we've had training lobo in the past. Now after just a week we see improvement in Lobo, and he's excited when we do our daily trainings.

We have done individual training, group class, and day camp with frogs to dogs and they have always exceeded expectations! Day camp training in particular is awesome. It's a like daycare but with trainers who will work on exactly what your dog needs, even some of the really challenging behaviors.

Aden has done wonders with our sweet rescue boy, Cody! Cody came to us with a lot of intense fear that we struggled to deal with effectively (seriously we tried everything). But thanks to Aden's dedication and patience with our sweet pup and us, Cody has been able to conquer his fears. He's seriously a whole new relaxed and happy dog. We could not have asked for a better trainer. Thank you Aden! I highly recommend Aden and Frogs to Dogs to everyone in need of training for their pups.

Enthusiastic set of employees whose knowledge seem to bode well for people seeking behavior modification with their animals

Frogs to Dogs reached out to us very quickly in reference to our need for a dog sitter for a weekend as out of town guests attending a wedding. We needed someone to check on our Oliver (8 month old Labradoodle) who wasn't used to being left alone for long periods and in his crate. Leena - our dog sitter was amazing. Met us to discuss needs - arranged the perfect schedule and met all of our needs with care, love and attention to detail. Oliver really liked her! She even sent txt messages and pictures. We were so pleased and relieved - so we were able to enjoy the wedding festivities. The rate for the time was very reasonable. We would call on Frogs to Dogs in the future if ever needed. Definitely recommend this company!!!!!

If you have any Covid concerns, this is certainly not the place for you and your pup. I have not brought my dog to Frogs to Dogs since September, because NONE of their staff (including the owner) were regularly wearing masks, despite there being a mask mandate for Decatur. When I questioned the staff about the lack of masks, they said they considered themselves a "family unit" and did not need to wear masks inside their business (there is no exception per the CDC or WHO). They also flat out lied to me about their staff being "regularly" tested. When I asked for information regarding their cleaning practices, they could not give me an answer for almost two weeks. In the report card videos I received, my dog was not only being called the wrong name, but the trainer was consistently wiping her nose with her hand and then giving my dog treats throughout the entire video. I hoped over the last few months they had improved upon these issues, but I was told by other folks who continued to use Frogs to Dogs, that trainers have not been wearing proper face coverings, as recently as last week.

We just adopted our first dog and are having some training issues. We have already seen improvements after our first session with Lee. He was very knowledgeable and personable and was not afraid to work with our dog when she was showing some aggression. We learned 5 commands in one hour and can’t wait to keep learning. Would highly recommend.

I’m so grateful for all that I’ve learned at Frogs to Dogs with Bonita. She’s full of energy and her passion for training shows. She has a gift for giving individualized attention while keeping the entire class on track with training. Sit, stay, down, come, heal, focus are just a few things my dog has learned. Bonita teaches you what to do, how to do it and why she’s teaching the command. Today Pablo learned a new word ‘wait’...a lifesaving word for a dog. Wait at the door, wait before you cross the street...I wish I would have found Frogs to dogs sooner. We lost a dog in August and that word could’ve saved his life. Moving on from the drama, classes are a lot of fun. I look forward to spending more quality time with Pablo learning form Bonita!

Report cards, videos and face-to-face explanation on what they worked on with your pet! This is the best pet training, sitting and boarding in Atlanta!!

Very happy with the great people at Frogs to Dogs for helping me train my 3 year old English Springer Spaniel. Especially the owner and Bonita. Bonita is as good as it gets. In just three lessons my Springer has improved in his obedience. This is mainly due to me receiving the correct and simple instructions on how to educate my dog to respond correctly to certain commands. Once explained to me, the methods are so logical and so easy for the dog to follow and learn. Really it is the owners that need to be trained in the proper method of educating their dog. It is all rewards and praise based.

Aden worked with me and my 8 year old black lab. My dog started getting anxiety on the leash and displaying leash aggression towards other pets, runners, cyclists, or anything with wheels! My dog had been a good walker and under my care for 4 years. I had no idea why she developed this behavior. I started watching videos online for tips, but it was not working well. Lucky for me, I was referred Frogs to Dogs by a friend who also used their training services. Aden trained me how to walk my dog so she felt more at ease. My dog is a lot happier now and so am I! I highly recommend this company. Remember that you have to put in the work after the training sessions and to be patient because it eventually will work! Every dog and owner is different, but I stuck to our training plan a year and now it's paid off! I think depending on the dog, it will take a lot less time. I think if I went to group sessions, results would have been faster.

My dog has been, for lack of a better word, difficult. She's very sweet but gets overstimulated easily, she is leash reactive, she didn't really know how to appropriately interact with dogs or people. Zsolt and the folks at Frogs to Dogs have been so helpful with suggestions and training on how to improve my relationship with her and how to help her feel more confident and secure. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs some extra help with their dogs.

I have a very stubborn, alpha, pit that loves to have his own way. With only 2 days of day camp, already there is no lqonger a wrestling match before walks. Walks are no longer a strength competition. He still has a LONG way to go but I was highly satisfied in seeing results within a such a short amount of time. My favorite part is that he is sent home with a detailed report card on how his training is doing, along with videos of demonstrations and tips. This has been a major help with continuing his training at home. The trainers I've met so far were all great and welcomed any and every question and was patient with me, making sure I understood and was well equipped to handle him at home. I will be furthering his learning with them and I'm excited to see what the future holds. Once he is ready for the group classes, he'll be covered for an unlimited amount of classes with a one time payment. I can't wait!!

I have been taking my dog to Frogs to Dogs for approx. 6 months now. When she started she was very nervous around other people, even just on walks. Since sending her to day camp, her confidence has grown greatly. She is more confident on walks, and occasionally willing to meet people. Even at home differences have been noticed in how her confidence has grown. The staff has always been nice, and we love the day camp videos.
