Professional and Well-Structured Service Dog Training
I had a very good experience with Dog Academy. The Psychiatric Service Dog Training Course was clear, well organized, and easy to follow step by step. The support team was professional and responsive throughout the process. I appreciate the structure of the training and the guidance provided. Highly recommended for anyone looking for serious and practical service dog training.

Promises that never deliviered
Was promised weekends and in person training but could never get ethier. They keep saying "1 more virtual meeting" over and over till we passed the 30 day refund window then would not refund me for the unused in-person credits. Left now feeling very disrespected and scammed.
Editing to address the reply:
I explicitly requested Saturdays at sign-up, and your sales team assured me it was no problem. The moment I paid, you changed the rules, told me Saturdays were impossible, and forced me to accept late-night weekday sessions after 7:00 PM just to get started.
You are using a 'safety foundation' narrative as an excuse, but after our second Zoom meeting, our actual trainer explicitly told us Sawyer was ready for in-person training. When I called to schedule those physical sessions, your corporate office overrode the trainer's professional assessment, denied the scheduling, and demanded I do even more virtual sessions. My trainer even admitted to me that they didn’t believe Dog Academy actually had anyone in my area capable of handling our in-person training.
It wasn't until I called to complain and demanded a refund for the second time that a Saturday session suddenly 'miraculously' became available. By then, the trust was entirely broken.
You took my money for an in-person package, failed to provide it, forced me into virtual sessions that were completely insufficient for my situation.

Dear Anthony,
Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We understand your frustration and appreciate the opportunity to address your experience.
First and foremost, we want to acknowledge the seriousness of Sawyer’s behavioral challenges. At the start of training, Sawyer was identified as a high-risk case due to fear-based reactivity, including a prior bite incident that required urgent care treatment. Because of this, our trainers determined that beginning with virtual behavioral foundation work was the safest and most appropriate course before introducing in-person sessions.
Your initial evaluation session was scheduled within six days of enrollment, and accommodations were made to work within your stated availability requirements of evenings after 7 PM and preferred weekends. Throughout the process, our training staff continued evaluating Sawyer’s readiness for in-person work. Based on the professional assessments of multiple trainers, it was determined that additional virtual sessions focused on confidence-building, muzzle conditioning, and desensitization were necessary before safely transitioning to in-person training.
We understand your concern that the process felt prolonged. However, these recommendations were based on trainer evaluations and safety considerations rather than an attempt to delay services. In fact, Dog Academy provided an additional virtual training session at no charge and also arranged a rare Saturday accommodation with your trainer in an effort to better support your scheduling needs.
Additionally, we would like to clarify that Dog Academy does have multiple qualified in-person trainers located within approximately 15 miles of your area who would have been available to work with Sawyer once he successfully graduated from the behavioral foundation stage and was deemed safe and ready for in-person handling. The delay in transitioning to in-person sessions was not due to a lack of trainer availability, but rather based solely on the professional recommendation of the behavior team regarding Sawyer’s readiness and safety.
We also understand your disappointment regarding the refund request. While your account falls outside of the refund policy window, your unused in-person training credits remain active and available for future use should you choose to continue training once Sawyer is ready for in-person work. Additionally, your lifetime access to virtual support resources and course materials remains available.
Our goal has always been to prioritize the safety, progress, and long-term success of both you and Sawyer. We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and appreciate the feedback you have provided.
Sincerely,
Dog Academy Team

I would never recommend this company to anyone! They boast of a thirty day money back guarantee but the trainer they assigned my dog didn’t show up the first time then we were past the 30 days of course. The trainer assigned took my dog for a 48 hour board and train which I found out later is not something the dog academy even offers. I was told I would get pictures and videos of the training she was receiving. I got a video of the training with my dog in a room. The trainer was kicking a cardboard box and my dog ran to get a toy out took it back across the room. Then the trainer did that several more times. When I asked what that was accomplishing I got no response for a couple of weeks and it accomplished nothing just to show her playing. She was kept most of the time in a too small kennel. I know that because I saw what she was transported in and the trainer wanted to make sure my kennel was much bigger. I am now having to spend even more money to take my dog to a different trainer. No money back of course. 30 day policy and all. My dog was set back in her training from this experience. She learned nothing she didn’t already know. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE.

Melody was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond to make sure I understood exactly how the process works, breaking everything down with clarity and genuine care. Her warm, personable energy made the entire experience feel effortless. It’s rare to meet someone who is both incredibly knowledgeable and truly friendly, but Melody embodies both. I left the conversation feeling confident, informed, and genuinely appreciated. She’s a star!
I am also very excited to have this opportunity online. Thank you for making this available!

A huge thank you to the Dog Academy team, especially Cary, who helped expedite the grading of the second submission of our exam. This allowed us to earn the certificate under a tight deadline for my dog to join me on my flight to clear out my grandparent's home, when my dog's support would be crucial. Thank you all! I'm so grateful.

This program is very informative and provides great courses to successfully train your dog, whether it would be for basic training or service dog training. My service dog has learned so much through US service animals and Dog Academy. My dogs last mission is to complete the video sessions, and pass to graduate with her certified service dog certificate. I feel confident that she will pass, thanks to the training from Dog Academy.

Professional and reasonably priced
I was looking for one on one trainer for my new 14 week old puppy. From the time I reached out to the company and interacted with John, who fully explained the benefits of the platinum package to my first session with Lisa, I have been very impressed with their professionalism, knowledge, and I am looking forward to our first lesson face-to-face next week with trainer Stevie. They all worked well with appointment appointments available within my busy schedule. They use positive reinforcement and non-punitive training and support throughout the whole life of my new fur baby. I have access some of the home training videos as well and they are very well done not too lengthy. My dog will be trained as a service dog once he meets the requirements and is six months old. Overall, the cost was very reasonable for the service that I will receive.

Edit after reply from Dog Academy.
Either this response is a lie or is incompetence or maybe a bit of both - because I got yet another automated call from Dog Academy at 12:27PM EST. "Hi, this is Lisa with Dog Academy. We saw you were on our website and wanted to offer..."
I don't want to hear from you all again! Giving any personal information to this business was a mistake because you blood suckers won't leave me alone.
