My dog and I just met with the owner. He was genuinely interested in helping us reach our goals. He is a true dog lover vested in his customers. Can't wait for our private lesson! The store also had a nice selection of gear and food. Would recommend him to anyone who needs help or products.

There are a number of classes we have taken there and the instructor and her aides are exceptional. If you need help with training your dog or getting him/her certified as a therapy dog this is the place to go!

We are so glad we found Awesome Dawgs. All of their employees are super friendly and knowledgeable. We missed signing up for puppy classes when we first got our puppy but they so graciously let us come to their puppy play hour each week so our puppy could socialize. We love the play group atmosphere in a controlled safe environment. We also started level 1 classes and although we have worked on some training at home found it super helpful. Highly recommend Awesome Dawgs to dog owners in Berks county.

We have taken our dog Harlow to every class offered. I can say Harlow is the best behaved and fun dog we ever had.
