EXCELLENT Based on 1 reviews Posted on Cylvia HayesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. I have found Shape Up Pup to be invaluable in training my new (now 8 month old) Border Collie puppy. I have learned so many great foundations games and skills that I did not do with my first agility dog. Not only is this program useful with the new pup but also for backfilling some of those skills with my 4 year old. Really great!Posted on Shandy BlakeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. I am always amazed by all the amazing courses and content Shape Up is consistently putting out. They are so on top of current and upcoming trends in the agility world and adjust and pivot their content to match. In addition, they are amazing at troubleshooting. I was having a few problems with my new young dog, and Justine was super quick to offer suggestions that helped immediately. Justine and Karen are simply kind, wonderful dog trainers. Absolutely recommend!Posted on Tiffany SalmonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook.
