UnCommon Canine Academy

My 5 month old cattle dog is afraid of almost everything. Except people. Chris and Jo are helping him gain confidence and learn how to play properly with other dogs. He’s becoming a great dog with all their help.

Bobbi Jo, Chris and Nicole are the best. I came to them a few months back after my reactive 7 year old cattle dog, Dennis, knocked me over while pregnant. We did a couple of training sessions and he goes to their camp 3x a week. He’s like a completely different dog now. He’s happy and fulfilled. Calm. He still is working on his reactivity with other dogs but he’s so much better than he was a few months ago. He’s a part of the family now instead of trying to lead it and stressing himself out. It’s brought so much peace to my life knowing that my dog is well taken care of while I adjust to becoming a mom. You can tell they really care. Today we went on a family walk, I was baby wearing, which is something I never would have been comfortable doing a couple months ago, and we were all in such a flow I forgot Dennis was with me for a second. That NEVER happens when you’re walking a reactive dog. No leash pulling or lunging at bikes or other dogs. I can’t thank Bobbi Jo, Chris and Nicole enough.

UnCommon Canine Academy is hands down the BEST at what they do. After reaching out to Bobbi Jo looking for help with a very specific and unique situation, she immediately had us set up lessons to work on Lugnut’s quirks. After each lesson, I drive away feeling SO grateful, and emotional to see the progress he is making. If you are wondering on whether or not to give it a shot, YES, YES, a million times yes. Lugnut had a very uncertain future until we walked through the doors of UnCommon Canine. Thank you, SO much Bobbi Jo, Chris, and Nicole for all of your hard work! It is absolutely incredible what you do, and how much you understand the mind of a dog!

Where do I start with Uncommon K9? Probably with a thank you, if I hadn’t said it 1,000,001 times already. Uncommon K9 specifically Bobbi Jo has helped my insecure young man Reggie step into his big boy paw prints this past summer introducing him into new experiences and routine. At this point, and while it’s on going Reggie is now a confident problem solving gentle dog for the most part. Training I know never ends, but is an ongoing learning curve but with trainers like Bobbi Jo they make the experience smooth. I didn’t know where I was going with Reggie beforehand but with the resources, unconditional support, and check ins I know Reggie will only continue to improve in his journey to be the best guy he can be. Even experiences such as going to the vet and monthly trips to the groomers improved immensely after his stay and learn program with Bobbi Jo this past summer. If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and dedicated look no further. Bobbi Jo is your person!!

Bobbi Jo is amazing! She is helping our extremely reactive dog gain confidence and learn to remain calm. She has helped our family so much!

We adopted a foster from Bobbi-Jo. Mae is an amazing dog. For the time she had Mae, her development speaks volumes for her program. She fits in amazingly well with us and our other dog. Despite this being a huge change for anyone, the transition was almost seamless. I definitely recommend Uncommon Canine Academy to anyone looking for boarding and/or training.

I board my puppy with Bobbi-Jo when I travel and she is nothing short of wonderful, kind, flexible, and accommodating! Mochi is always so happy to see her when she gets dropped off and in good spirits when picked up, so I know she is well cared for while I am gone. I get regular updates and she always lets me know what they are working on and offers her advice and expertise on training, which is so appreciated for a first time puppy owner!
