Dogworx Academy

I cannot say enough positive things about Jessy, Rob, and the working students at Dogworx. They were recommended to me by a friend when I adopted a young German Shepherd puppy, and I in turn recommend them to everyone I know. I wasn’t a first time dog owner by any means, but my lifestyle has changed drastically since my last puppy, so I knew I needed to have some formal help with training. Jessy has been a Godsend. I travel a lot for work, so having the ability to leave my dog with people I trust where he can continue his training and stay physically and mentally active is imperative. At his first visit, he was less than 4 months old, and he stayed for a month while I was out of town. He came home knowing all of his basic commands and walking/​heeling on a leash. I’m not always the best at continuing our exercises at home, but they have done such an excellent job teaching him manners that even I haven’t been able to screw it up. ;) He is now 1.5 years old, and he is the most well behaved dog I’ve ever had. When we do work on things at home, he is eager and willing to learn, so I know he has had nothing but positive experiences with them. He is now able to travel with me some, and we receive compliments all the time on what a nice dog he is to be around. I know I owe that completely to Dogworx Academy. It’s a 3.5 hour drive, one way, for me to get to Taylor, but they have my business for life; my dog stays with them several times a year for anywhere from a week to almost 2 months at a time. They treat him like one of their own, provide me with regular updates and pictures (so I don’t go crazy without him), and Jessy is always patient with my seemingly never-​ending questions even when I get him back home. I couldn’t ask for better partners in my quest for a happy, well mannered pup.

OMG I am not sure I can say enough amazing things about the awesome trainers at Dogworx Academy. We LOVED our Rottweiler puppy. He was awesome. However, he was 150lb puppy that ruled US. We put all of our confidence in Jesse, Rob and everyone at Dogworx to help us get Cujo to have Manners. Due to a medical issue, it was a MUST. They kept Cujo for about 6 weeks and he was a different boy when I got him home. He was still my mischievous little guy, WITH manners. His commands are solid and just a difference between night and day. I would recommend ALL of the Trainers at Dog Worx. Thank you for giving us our home back. I can’t say enough about how great you are all !!!

I have two fur babies that are my entire world, as any fur parents mentality is. I did a two week board and train with my our puppies (Ziggy Marley — 1 yr. 2 months; German Shepherd /​Husky mix and Walter Kronkite — 2 yrs. 1 month; Australian Shepherd mix) here to get them some concrete training. They are pretty good dogs, but needed some serious work.
Both needed training for different reasons and came out much better dogs. Jessy and Rob worked with our pups and you can 100% tell the difference. They both walk better on leashes and can heel. They both sit when told and they sit before you open any door and wait for your command to continue outside.
It was also Wally’s 2^nd birthday when they were there and Jessy put party hats on them and gave them doggy ice cream.
I will continue to do training with Jessy and Rob and would recommend them to ANYONE that wants to do conventional training (e.g. no shock collar) and see immediate results. We know we have some work to do to continue the training, but I can already see results (even though they are still trying to test me!)

I made the drive down to Hutto from DFW area to work with trainers that understand dog behavior and training. This is our second visit and they did not disappoint.
So NICE to have the opportunity to work with people who take the time to understand your goals, and take the time to understand you and your dog and work together with you on a training plan.
I have left my dog with Jessy and Rob for board and train and was simply amazed at the difference. Along with daily updates and pictures, the training my dog received and has retained is just awesome. Jessy and Rob are vested in what is best for you and your dog. I highly recommend them for any of your dog training needs, they are simply AWESOME!!! Thanks so much!

My family and I recently adopted a very high spirited Ridgie Mix I swear the hound in her makes her very willful and sassy! Jessy was more than willing to take her on as her own, in her own home, and train her for us. This was no light task as Mandy has been allowed full range in our home and little to (well zero) training on our end. In two weeks Mandy came back to us knowing «Place, Sit, Down», and was walking on a lead! In the hour of training that I received after Mandy’s initial visit I had a disc and enough information to get us going at home. I would, will and am going to absolutely recommend Jessy and Rob for all your Doggy needs. Mandy will be going back very soon, and hopefully she’ll get in the water this time.
