Riverbend Canine Training

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Transformational Training for Our Energetic Girl! I can’t recommend Riverbend Canine Training enough! If you have a dog that feels “untrainable” because of high energy, this is absolutely the place to go. Before we started, our dog Sadie was, to put it simply, a total whirlwind. She had endless energy and we just didn’t know how to channel it. We honestly worried that her personality might be too much for traditional training. The Experience Getting started was incredibly easy. A colleague recommended Brandon to me, and after hearing how great their experience was, I knew we were in good hands. • Brandon (Owner): Runs a top-tier facility and truly understands canine psychology. He made us feel confident from day one. • Alisha (Trainer): Sadie was paired with Alisha, and she was nothing short of a miracle worker. She handled Sadie’s intensity with patience, skill, and consistency. The Results What really sets Riverbend apart is that they didn’t “break” Sadie’s spirit. She still has all the energy and goofy personality we love—but now she listens, follows commands, and knows how to focus that energy. It honestly feels like we have the same dog, just with a much-needed “remote control.” If you’re looking for trainers who truly deliver on their promises, go see Brandon and Alisha. Thank you both for helping Sadie become the best version of herself!

It is a great pleasure to give Riverbend Canine, Brandon, Cody, and Alisha a Five Star review and kudos for the amazing transformation with Abby. We received Abby from a friend who raised Poodles. She was no longer able to raise and breed them. Abby is a ten month old puppy that was a wild child when we received her. Looking for dog training and possible therapy training we choose Riverbend based on reviews and personal friends who had Brandon and the team train their fury friends. The team brought out the best in Abby and us. Their training treats both the dog and the family to be great partners in doing life on the journey. The transformation was amazing. We now have a great family member and a therapy dog that works with individuals that need some love. Abby is so loving and enjoys doing her good. I would recommend giving them a call for a consultation in order for them to evaluate the issues you may be having and possible remedies so you can have a great family member. Be well and encouraged,

The team over at Riverbend Canine are life savers. My pup marlboro was having intense reactivity issues, we could hardly walk him without him lunging at other dogs, barking, and a whole myriad of other bad behaviors. I reached out to Brandon about getting some training and he instantly set us up with the perfect plan to get marlboros issues resolved. I surveyed 10+ other facilities to train marlboro, they were all lacking in my core values to train my dog and did not make me comfortable with leaving my dog with them, this was until I found Riverbend. Brandon, Alisha, and the entire team made me feel so comfortable with leaving my puppy with them. They do not only train the puppy, they also educate you and help you learn how to continue making your dog a better dog. After two weeks of Marlboros training with Alisha and Brandon, marlboros obedience was immensely better and he was able to go out in public without reacting and showing signs of aggression. Marlboro now walks in crowded public spaces, knows commands, and is a completely better dog! Getting this training has not only made my life easier, but it has made my dog a more confident and proficient dog. There is not a better team to learn from and send your puppy to than Riverbend Canine. The pictures Included are marlboro now in public working on obedience and his confidence. I would recommend them for anyone looking for the perfect team to work with!

This training was amazing! I’ve had my dog Leo for almost 5 years now. Most of my friends and family didn’t like him. He was the dog that everyone wanted to stay away from. This forced me to keep him locked up when guests were over. He’d also bark a lot while I was trying to work (I work from home) so I’d have to put him away while working. So he ended up being locked away all day. I’m also going on a trip out of country this summer. I asked a few people if they could watch him but they wouldn’t do it even if I paid them. It’s very sad to hear that about your pet (especially knowing they are right) I was scared for a minute that I’d have to get rid of him bc I wanted to travel and I know it would be rough to bring him with me. He is a good dog, he just gets a little skittish around new people. But luckily Brandon and his team at riverbend were able to not only teach him how to be more well behaved, but also show me how to make sure he behaves himself long term. Now I can keep him with me while I work and bring him around friends. And ofc I can leave the country knowing my dad won’t be scared of Leo bitting him. Thank you Brandon, you have done amazing work! Would definitely recommend to EVERY dog owner (not just if your dog is misbehaving) I think every dog could benefit from this service.

We were definitely skeptical but Wow, what an amazing journey it’s been with Riverbend Canine Training and the legendary Mr. Taylor. They just don’t make dog trainers or do business like this anymore. From day one, Brandon’s passion and belief in proper, ethical training stood out. His methods are based on honesty, integrity, and a real love for dogs—and it shows in the results. Our dog went from struggling with aggression and anxiety to becoming calm, confident, and disciplined. Today, our dog has achieved everything from basic obedience to guard and therapy training. Brandon delivered far more than we expected. He stands behind every promise and puts genuine care into every training session. This experience has shown us that when skill and passion come together, the results speak for themselves. If you’re looking for a trainer who believes dogs are not just pets but our best friends and protectors, Riverbend Canine Training is the place to go. Need we say more? Thank you again for your wonderful team, for changing our dog’s life—and ours.
