  • “I sent my 7 month old dalmatian who was not the best listener and was very timid around men. Jared and his team did an amazing job of instilling confidence in Sailor and giving him the proper tools to be a good boy! Huge shoutout to Olivia who loved my boy like her own and answered all of my questions at go home! Would recommend Southern State to anyone!!"

  • I can’t say enough great things about this awesome team. My first impression during our German Shepherd’s initial evaluation was just how knowledgeable and professional Jared is. He took me into the kennel and it was absolutely immaculate. I knew that it was definitely the place for our dog ‘Rip’ to participate in their 4 week board & train program. There’s been such an amazing, positive difference in Rip’s behavior since he’s come home. You can also be rest assured that your dog will be kept in a completely safe environment during training and will be very well taken care of. Furthermore, if there’s something that needs to be tweaked later with your dog’s behavior, Jared will help address those issues and the follow up training that you will receive to maintain what your dog has learned is invaluable. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.

  • "The level of care and attention to the dogs is outstanding. They believe in their method and stand by it, training both the dog and the owner. Putting my dog through their program took him from a skinny, wild dog to a strong sweet boy who loves to “go to work” and practice his training. Highly recommend!!"
