Dog Behavior Training in Riverside County, CA

★★★★★

I adopted Sookie, a two-year-old bully mix, from the shelter, and within her first week home she began showing signs of separation anxiety. I was nervous and didn’t know what to do, so I reached out to Epic Dog Academy. They scheduled a same-day consultation, which immediately made me feel supported. Sookie started the Honor Roll Program the following week.

For anyone stressed out about walking their dog in public, this is my experience with Epic Dog Academy. I called Epic Dog Academy when my golden retriever, Marty, was a little over 1 year old. I was being pulled down to the ground on walks from his protective, excited lunging and jumping.

★★★★★

The difference with my dogs behavior before and after Epic Dog Academy training is nothing short of night and day. We used to be stressed out to take him to a restaurant because he was so reactive towards people and other dogs, and since getting him back his behavior and attention are placed diligently on us and what we’re asking him to do. The biggest benefit, though was for him, he can finally relax and be a dog.

Should you sign up? Heck yes! Is it worth the money? Heck yesss! My puppy was pure chaos and life with 2 dogs was kicking my butt. I didn't know what I should be doing and kept trying different things to get my puppy to listen which created inconsistency and made his behavior worse.

I signed my boy Arrow up for the 2 week board and train program for territorial human aggression issues, and it has been the best decision I have made within his training journey! Epic Dog Academy has helped change his life as well as ours for the better! His trainer Kyonia coached my family and I how to implement the training into our home and daily lives while being very supportive and knowledgeable answering all of the questions/ concerns.

★★★★★

Thank you Epic Dog Academy for helping us with our rescue German Shepherd, Major! We are so pleased with all he has learned and how well he is doing now that he is home. Olivia gave us hope from our initial call, Vince on our first visit and on pick up day Megan showed us everything Major had learned so we know how to continue with his training at home.

E.D.A. has been a lifesaver for our family! We have two very sweet, energetic lab puppies who were also littermates. We needed help bringing peace & order back to our home. Our dogs were pulling on walks, tearing up our outside furniture & eating everything in sight. Olivia & Kiana absolutely crushed it!

★★★★★

We put both our dogs in the board and train to help with overall good listening/foundation + leash reactivity. They had had some training prior but Erin did a fantastic job working with them to get them to be more consistent. Our dachshund had fearful reactivity and would immediately bark at any dog while walking. Now after having gone through the training he is significantly more relaxed and we can take him in public or walk around the neighborhood without him melting down and barking like crazy.

★★★★★

I am beyond impressed with the work that Epic Dog Academy has done and continues to do. Alicia was Gigi's trainer for the 2-week program. Gigi learned so much and has shown amazing improvements. Ash came over to do the home visit and helped teach/show me how to implement the training exercises and commands.

★★★★★

EDA has been fantastic. Their board and train program was thorough, consistent, and transparent. We missed our dog like crazy while she was there but EDA was deeply committed to her success and we never had to wonder if she was in good hands. Their ongoing support through group classes and in-home training sessions has been incredibly valuable as well. We recently adopted an older dog and it's been so cool to see her personality evolve with the confidence she's gained through training.

★★★★★

We brought our 10 month old Cane Corso to Epic for boarding school. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Our trainer Ash was amazing. She sent us photos and updates on training daily. She also answered all our questions very quickly. Our pup came home a different dog and absolutely loves training. It is amazing to see how much he changed in two weeks.

★★★★★

I have 2 Belgian Malinois that needed training for aggressive behavior and behavior modification. Taking them to Epic Dog Academy was the best investment I ever made. They are two different dogs now and it is such a relief to be able to take them in public and not to stress out.

★★★★★

We have brought both our pitty dogs to epic dog for training and just recently brought our mini dachshund pup to get trained there as well because of the great experience we had the first time. I cannot say enough good things about this training program.

★★★★★

I have loved every experience I have had with Epic Dog Academy in Temecula! I adopted my dog from the Moreno Valley shelter at the end of August and by early February is was in their training program. He so happy knowing what makes me happy! We continued on with their group training, which was included, and he does such an amazing job every times.

★★★★★

We brought Sage to help with her fear of anyone outside our home. I am amazed at her improvement in just two weeks. Kyonia is a knowledgeable trainer who educated us on getting the best out of Sage; we loved seeing pics and videos throughout her boot camp demonstrating her ability to follow commands and bond with trainer.

★★★★★

My carpet cleaning company recommended EDA to help me with training my new puppy, Melody. She was 18 weeks and full of energy. I really only wanted help with potty training and basic commands. Before EDA, she was having peeing accidents everywhere. Just stopped and went pee while playing. EDA gave Melody so much more.

★★★★★

Lucy just graduated from the two week Board & Train program. She is responding to commands so well and listening so much better. The jumping & “talking” is under control by using the necessary commands. We could not be happier and are so thankful for Epic!

★★★★★

EDA got my paranoid, reactive, hated my wife dog to be able to be touched and pet by my wife. Their training was great, still a lot of work to do by me to keep the results they achieved. Overall, great place to send your dog.

★★★★★

We are so happy we chose Epic Dog Academy for our new puppy training. All of the trainers and staff have been very helpful and very knowledgable in training our new family fur baby Dakota. Vincent has been great with the dogs and guiding us adults to keep our pups well behaved at home and in public.

★★★★★

I’m extremely impressed with Izzy’s progress during her board and train. We are working daily on the commands she has learned and she is doing great!! There is so much communication during training time I felt so comfortable with her being with her trainer. Epic Dog Academy gets a 15 out of 10 on my scale!

★★★★★

Extremely pleased with our experience with Epic Dog Academy!!! From the very beginning, when the owner, Vince, came to meet our 5 month old puppy, to the trainer, Erin! Everyone at the facility was exceptionally knowledgeable and very compassionate! I would highly recommend this business !

★★★★★

Our Frenchie had bad recall, but entering the academy has helped significantly. She still needs to brush up on her training, but now that we have the tools, training has been a smoother road!

★★★★★
