I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I am impressed with the great job you have done with Lila, my competely deaf and partially blind aussie.
I was a little apprehensive about leaving her for the ruff love program and spending a month away from us. I didn’t want her to think we had abandoned her. However, I see how much you have loved her and taken such great care of her that I feel completely at ease that I made the right decision sending her.
I wanted to tell you that you have done a fantastic job with Lila and I look forward to you guys doing a fantastic job with Gussie too! Both of my dogs have a special meaning to me.
Thank you for taking such great care of my two four-legged children.

RUFF LOVE
TRAINING
RUFF LOVE PROGRAM is a 4 week board/train program. Check out our $50 OFF COUPON for this program. Your dog will stay at our facility for the duration of the program. Their daily routine consists of a minimum of 3x daily training periods with staff trainers, trips to local parks for real life training, and playtime with their doggie daycare friends. You will receive a DVD video of your dog's training process that can be played on your TV or computer at home. This will include clips from when your dog first enters the program, when they are learning basics, up to their final week.
Perhaps you've heard that a dog will listen only to the person who trains it, so it's useless for someone else train your dog. Our program is different. Here's why:
We teach your dog to want to perform the trained behaviors - to love his job because he loves the work.
Our positive approach teaches cooperation and motivation. This easily carries over from the trainer to the owner, an adult, child, man or woman.
We work with you after your dog is trained. We show you in the follow up lessons how to get your dog to work for you. Once you get home, the DVD will help remind you what you may have forgotten on the way home.
Our training isn't a mystical secret. We'll teach you a set of skills that can easily be mastered by a loving, caring dog owner. Our involvement doesn't end when you get home, contact us anytime for help. Brushup training is available through the Doggie DaySchool Program.
