Rachelle is very friendly and knowledgeable about dogs and truly passionate and provides top notch training . If your having any behaviour issues or just wanting your dog to have the best start this company is the one you want. Their credentials speak for themselves but working with them blows your mind on the amount you learn. 💯 recommended. Your dog will love you more to work with these guys. More...

Talked with Rachelle on the phone was amazing to deal with. While picking trainers pls look at their accreditations. I looked at no bad dogs glowing accreditations and knew instantly they were the company for me. Reached out to them on Facebook. They were able to fix my dog within 20 min of seeing him. There abilities are way worth the price. I highly recommend this company hands down wonderful trainers. Definitely not disappointed reaching out to them. More...

Rachelle and Ben are truly amazing trainers. They helped me with my dogs fear aggression. GAVE ME LOTS OF FREE ADVICE before I even hired them on the phone to try and help me fix the issue myself. They have wonderful references to ease your mind as well as well accredited trainers. I’ve researched a lot of trainers on here and only two companies stood out. Super glad I chose you guys your the real deal. A great mix of positive only and balance training. My dog responded super fast with Rachelle and changed his whole being within one session. I’m going to be using them for a board and train as they truly care about training the dog and the human then just looking for a quick buck. By far the best trainers on this site. Appreciate what you do for animals. Thanks so much highly recommended this company. More...

I was having issues with training my new pup, a Cane Corso. I knew he was smart but I couldn't get him to stop going to the bathroom in the kennel and I was struggling to get any weight on him at all. I was at my wits end when I posted on a Cane Corso page on Facebook. I was I was attacked for my lack of knowledge and was even accused of neglect. I was aware he was underweight, thats why I asked for help. Rachelle with No Bad Dogs Academy reached put to me in a private message and helped me get him on the right track. Truth is, I was under feeding him and I didnt know it. Rachelle assisted me all hours, she advised me to change foods to something with higher protein and feeding schedule. Im so happy to say that my boy is now thriving. No more accidents in his kennel and he is putting on weight like he should. I would definitely recommend them More...

Rachelle and Ben are amazing! They came to my disastrous home to help me with my new puppy, who needs to learn some manners. Within minutes of arriving, Henry was literally eating out of Rachelle’s hand.

Rachelle gave me the tools to train and guide Henry in a calm, comprehensive, and kind way. I’m so grateful to her and Ben and I definitely recommend them to anyone!

Very disappointed in Rachelle Primeau. Gave her and Ben great reviews for the last 4 sessions. She didn't show up today. Couldn't get through to her by text nor by phone . I paid for 6 sessions and have received 4. She finally responded but will not reimburse me for the last 2 session. Very unprofessional. More...

Not going to entertain this drama. Do not owe you $250 dollars sessions are not even that much a piece first off. Second phone time isnt free. Second you voided contract stating your dog had bitten you and you were making a date to have her put to sleep and wanting me to attend. There for furture trainings are voided. You only had one session left the 6th is testing of the programe and graduation not a training hour just a (fyi) your dog needs an owner that can actually fulfull the dogs needs with your mibility issue you shouldnt have any dogs as you cant provide all the dogs need. Further more you wsnted to surrender the dog in question to us and then decided if we didnt wsnt her you would just have her out down again voiding out a training contract. !!! There is a reason we have contracts its null and void on your end we dont refund for that and waste of time to train a dog your having put down. Your childish bad reviews on here do nothing but waste your time writng them. Have a good day.

Hi , I would recommend Rochelle and Ben with training your dog. We did a 6 week training and was a great experience. My dog had aggression towards other dogs , she now has learned to not be aggressive, she actually wants to meet other dogs , they sniff and then she wants to play. Although she has the odd time where she barks at other dogs still, but it’s a learning process and if I ever need anything, Rochelle and Ben will be there for me, even though our training classes are over. I enjoyed every training class and look forward to my dog behaving in the future. It is more enjoyable and less stressful now thank you Rochelle and Ben for all you’ve done. More...

Rachelle is an incredible trainer. She understands what works and what doesn’t. I was a first time puppy owner losing my mind. She got on the phone with me within minutes of receiving my request and spent nearly an hour talking me through how to deal with puppy behaviour. This is before I gave her any money or commitment to her services. She genuinely cares about dogs and is an incredible resource. Literally within a day my puppy was learning because of Rachelle. She did in home lessons with me and my pup. Her availability was flexible and cost was reasonable for what I was able to learn from her. My puppy has turned into a sweet, well behaved dog and I couldn’t have done it without her help. I would highly recommend her. More...

We adopted Poe from a Ministry rescue shelter and were told he and others were rescued from a puppy mill. After 3 weeks of working/living with Poe he was showing signs of aggression towards people that approached me so I searched on Bark and found No bad Dogs Academy. Our meeting with Rachelle was a total learning experience for my son and I, to start we learned why he was reacting to people as well as what to do when he exhibited that behaviour. In a 2 hour assessment we learned so much about Poe and what we were not doing correctly. They are coming back in a few days to start the first training session and we are looking forward to it. Amazing!!! More...

Rachelle helped me with my over possessive aggressive German Shepard dog. He would lunge and attack everyone insight. With one session she was able to correct his behaviour and showed me how to change his behaviour to something I wanted instead of his reactions. It’s been a total life change and am amazing experience. If you have a dog this is the trainer for you. Her prices are beyond reasonable from what other trainers charge she’s worth every penny. If you’re getting a dog online or in person I’ve done both and have had amazing results in my dog. Highly recommended. Shes top of the line in my books More...

Rachelle has a great mind at problem solving for aggressive and troubled dogs. She puts her heart and soul in helping dogs and it shows. She’s very knowledgeable in every aspect of her training and her confidence and training shows through the dog. She is a blessing. In person or online her methods are easy to follow and life changing for dogs. She’s a must have if you’re first starting out or trying to find issues with your dogs. She’s your go to. Can’t say enough about this lady she’s amazing her whole team of trainers are. More...

We’ve just embarked on the No Bad Dogs Academy six week behaviour modification program, with Rachelle .
Rachelle is super knowledgeable and helped us quickly understand what we need to do to calm down our fearful and very reactive little dachshund. We’ve had a couple of biting incidents in the past when answering the door or walking our pooch.
This was only the first of six sessions and by the time we got around to doing the paperwork, our dog was holding a sit/stay and enjoying treats…and mercifully no more barking.

Rachelle did an excellent job with Juno. We know Juno is not an easy dog ( young male German Shepherd). But since the first minute she knew how to approach him and, at the end of the first session,Juno seemed to be a different dog ! . She used a perfect balance of authority and positive reinforcement. Excellent job Rachelle! More...
