A big thank you to Leighann who trained our 8 month mixed rescue, Remy, over a three week day program. We had been through another local dog training class with minimal improvement. Leighann was knowledgeable, patient and light-hearted as she guided both Remy (and us humans) in proper leash walking, sit, down, stay and come commands. Remy's behavior has improved dramatically with her skilled instruction. From the first week, we saw how excited Remy was to see Leighann each day which is a testament to her love of dogs and her style of training. We know how to advocate for Remy and while he is still growing and learning; he is a confident, well-mannered, happy pup. One that our friends and family enjoyed being with over the holidays.

Leighann is the BEST trainer ever! She trained our dog Rockie AKA 'Rock Star' and us, in obedience and then off leash training. Rockie is a rescue mutt, and very smart. Almost every day either walking him, or at restaurants someone tells us how great he is and well behaved. One waitress even told us she forgot he was there. Better than all the compliments, is how Rockie reacts when he sees Leighann; he is so excited and runs up to her tail wagging and leaning in for love. This exchange is a pure example of her compassionate training style and love for dogs. We feel very blessed to have had such a wonderful experience with Leighann as Rockies trainer.

I finally have the offleash dog that I've always dreamed of! Brad did a great job training Zamboni, and everyone at the school are so wonderful and kind. They always treat Zamboni (and me) super special whenever we come into the store to visit. Highly recommend Brad and the training team here if you want a dog who can play in open spaces without fear that they'll run into traffic or run off too far to get back. I was highly skeptical that my dog could be trusted off leash - but now we practice everyday and I have no anxiety whatsoever anymore!

Highly recommend Anderson! He did an incredible job helping us get our high energy Australian Cattle Dog trained up, able to heel and walk on a loose leash. Anderson is a total expert and made sure we understood the process every step of the way. We also felt comfortable that Zorro was safe, and he learned so much during our lessons with Anderson. We highly recommend OTSFD and especially encourage you to ask for Anderson!

I competed the three-week day care and training program. Chris helped me so much with my mini Aussie’s reactivity toward other dogs, children, and overall improved his leash obedience and manners significantly. Definitely recommend this option, especially if you have an idea of what your dog needs to work on already.

I have been using Olde Towne School the last year twice per week, and they are amazing they have a great schedule for all my needs, and the most important my dogs always come home happy.

Anderson has been a fabulous fit for our family. We have learned lots from him and look forward to our training sessions with him and our pup, Luna.

Amazing! We did private lessons with Leighann for our 4 year old Labrador who is very friendly / high energy but was reactive on leash with other dogs (and had general poor leash manners). It was unbelievable the difference training has made for our lives - our dog is so well behaved now that she gets complimented on walks! Leighann's love of dogs is obvious and her years of experience make her incredible at tailoring training for your specific dog's needs. I cannot recommend working with her enough!

Best training and staff. Saul is as amazing with our rowdy golden retriever. Don’t waste your time with other Alexandria training facilities like we did. We were so impressed with the training and that they didn’t use a ton of treats to do it. We will definitely be back for more lessons.

Went here for dog training with Anderson for 6 weeks! This was great and worth the money to get our dog to be better behaved on walks and other encounters!
