I have been through many classes at ToS as a student and have nothing but wonderful things to say about the company and their methods of training. I brought one of our extremely fearful dogs through the Fearful Fido class. It was one of the most valuable experiences I have ever had with one of my dogs. It helped me learn appropriate ways to relate to the emotions my dog was feeling and how to help change those emotions so that they were not controlling him. At the start of the class, volunteers who helped these dogs had to s... read more

There are not enough words to express my thanks to Tails Of Success. The staff are well trained and caring. They are always will to help with no matter what the situation. Doggie Day Care is the best. Thanks Sheri and Darcy.

Having gone to one local boarder and trainer where I walked away with very mixed feelings about their approach and care, I was extremely relieved to find Tails of Success. The approach to handling the dogs is more "evolved" than traditional practices, there is kindness and care and naturally, the dogs respond well, become calm and understand what they are being taught. I have also learned from Tails of Success about a quality, raw and natural diet for my two Shih Tzus which I inherently feel will extended their life and thei... read more

We have used Tails of Success for the Levels training for some time now and are extremely pleased with the knowledge and caring with which Sherri and Darcy both conduct themselves. Levels training provides an opportunity for both myself and my dog to learn while continuing with much needed socialization for my baby! We would recommend Tails of Success to anyone who needed a trainer or some obedience classes for their pooch! Great place! :) As for the one star review, I guess you can't make everyone happy.

Thank God for Tails of Success. I had no idea what to do with our dog after it all of a sudden was displaying weird behaviors. So, never having been in this situation before, I got online and looked for a trainer. The first person who came to my home sold me a 100.00 collar that administered a shock, on top of the money he charged for the lesson, and told me whenever the bad behavior occurred I could push this little button and it would make him stop. Well it seemed to work at first, but then he bit me. I decided I wasn't ex... read more

Tails of Success is an awesome place to train your dog. I was introduced to the company when I adopted a puppy from Pittyloverescue. They require a training class within a month of adopting and gave a discount for TOS. I have taken several other obedience training classes with a previous dog & loved how the classes at Tails of Success are different. There is only positive training techniques used. No shock or prong collars, no yanking, pulling, yelling, & definitely no playing I'm the "alpha&quot... read more

I do not know what the person who gave Tails a 1 star is talking about? Holistic methods? I am curious if they are discussing the proper way to train a dog: Lots of praise for good behaviors? I am confused with the 1 star review. My experience with Tails has been a wonderful one. My unruly dog took to our trainer after a few minutes, and the trainer was highly patient. In our meetings with said trainer, my dog and I have a new understanding of each other, and our relationship is what it should be. The trainer was able to ide... read more

Our rescue is partnered with Tails of Success for the training of our bullies. Not only do we find the trainers at TOS extremely patient and knowledgeable but they are also very savvy concerning dog behavior. Their methods aren't harmful unlike many other "well known" trainers in this area and they actually take the time to determine the root of a problem versus beating it out of the dog like some other trainers. Their approach to dog training and behavioral work is quite refreshing given the fact that most... read more

Tails is one of very few places in the Rochester area where the trainers will look at the whole picture - the whole dog, the whole human/s, the whole relationship - and help find the best solution for all parties. The methods used are gentle, effective and FUN (isn't that how training should be?!). It's obvious how much the dogs love going to classes at Tails, they usually can't wait to get in the door! The trainers at Tails are easy to talk to and will gladly do everything they can to answer any questions you may have. I hi... read more
