The only certified behavior specialists in the panhandle! They have the knowledge and skills to truly make a difference and help you work through a variety of behavior issues. Plus their classes are great and get the pups ready for the world. There are so many different types of classes as well. Training staff is kind and very helpful. I love that they are positive based training and my pups do as well!

Debbie was fantastic! We would never have worked through our 11 yr old golden retriever’s food, toy, and owner possessiveness triggered aggression toward our friend’s golden retriever puppy without Debbie’s assistance. We had 1-training session with Debbie with follow-up instructions and continual communication as we worked through it. We followed the process Debbie outlined for us and the result is the two dogs can now be with each other without incident. Debbie recommended a muzzle (treat basket) with detailed instructions on introducing and using the muzzle with other dogs. I never thought my dog would wear it without issue. She is actually playful and chases a small ball she can chew on when she wears it. My dog snapped at the puppy twice when the puppy approached her and put her face into my dogs face, but my dog was wearing her treat basket so no injuries. The puppy has learned to be weary of my dog. Now they walk right by each other without incident. My dog even showed the puppy how to get into our pool, swim, and retrieve. My dog no longer wears the muzzle, but we continue to carefully monitor them so there are no problems. We are so thankful for Debbie’s help since our dogs can be with each other. It is working out better than we ever expected!

I would like to thank you for the great K9 Scent classes over the past 12 weeks.
Pets Behave have helped Leroy, my 8yo Mini dachshund confidence blossom, and we have learned more than we ever imagined possible. Thanks again for the great training. Leroy and I will take the lessons we've learned and I will use them as long as I have dogs.

Leroy and I look forward to our next class at Pets Behave!

This place has changed so much with the new ownership! Ashley is an amazing trainer for all levels of obedience and behavior problem dogs. She takes the time to get to know her clients and their specific needs for dogs with aggression or fear issues.

Love, love, love Pets Behave! Debbie, Ashley, Chloe and Adrian have been so helpful with my puppy. Patient, professional, and knowledgeable!! Carson and I can’t wait to see the crew again in September.

Back under the original owner's management, and I can't recommend them enough! They focus on the person-pet bond for true connection vs. blind obedience. Fun classes with clear direction. They adjust training to the needs of your dog. They use evidence based training strategies that focus on connection and safety. They understand dog psychology and that dogs can get PTSD too. In years past, I took 2 dogs through all of the classes here. Those dogs became Canine Good Citizens and registered therapy dogs. I'm going back now for a new dog from a rescue. When we first got him, his PTSD was so bad we didn't know if we were the right family for him. I reached out to Debbie Revell and got a private lesson that was priceless! It saved his placement with us. All to say, Pets Behave is best!

We love going every week to agility class! Vickie takes time to help and personlize what each dogs strengths are and what can be improved upon. She has so many years of personal experience. It’s a relaxed environment and fun for both me and my dog. Thank you

We love petsbehave. I'm a professional groomer and run a petsitting business as well. I always refer clients with new puppies or dogs with behavioral problems to the trainers at pets behave. I have taken my own dogs as well when I adopted a rescue dog who's behavioral issues were more than I could handle and fix on my own. My kiddo is taking his puppy through classes at pets behave and loves all the trainers. I love how patient they are with him being a child. Just great all around!
