A Refined Canine - Georgetown, Texas

Your dog will love taking classes or staying over! I met Adrienne (the owner) about a decade ago when she was teaching a puppy training class. She started this business shortly thereafter and I have seen it grow this whole time. I've used her dog training services and dog boarding and I trust her with my dog's care completely. I think Ms. Adrienne is my dog's favorite person after me!

She has knowledge, experience, and temperament and dogs gravitate to her. She commands their attention, can clearly communicate expectations, and it doesn't hurt that she has the best treats too! She can train not just the dogs, but the humans also which is usually the hardest part ☺️.

The kennels are on the family ranch so someone is always on site. Dogs get regular potty breaks, playtime with fellow furry boarders (if they are so inclined), and attention to their diets. I get regular photo updates on all the fun my dog has when she stays on the ranch. She has such a blast I wonder if she'll even want to come home!

I can't recommend her business enough. Adrienne has truly found her calling. She is genuine and kind and you and your dog's lives will be improved having met her.

A Refined Canine has been training my big boy, Zander for service and overall behavior. Adrienne and her team are amazing! I can't say enough about the quality of training that they offer, the ease of getting to her location, and the relationship they have with my boy. I would recommend them for both new and experienced pet parents.

Adrienne was recommended to us by a friend. A refined canine is a hidden gem. The first thing that you notice is how thorough they are. They are also very knowledgeable, responsive( I would get videos and pics of my pup on a daily basis) and professional. They were able to train my 7 yr Anatolian Shepherd, who developed leg coordination issues and was getting a bit stubborn in general. The feeling you get is that they care for our pups as much as we do, which in itself is my most important criteria.

We are so happy that we came across A Refined Canine. We want the tools to make our young goldendoodle a great dog. Adrienne is a very special trainer. She uses positive training and is teaching us so much about our dog and the best ways to work with him. Ranger is making great progress after just a few sessions. She also has a fantastic facility and Ranger loves the time that we spend there. If this dog could talk he would tell you that his training sessions are the best part of his week.

Adrienne has been awesome to work with. She is kind and explains things so well to set the dog and the owner both up for success together. I have done some private training in preparation for therapy dog evalution and she has been so thorough during the session. She also sends a detailed follow up email after each session to outline what was worked on and how to continue developing. I would highly recommend to anyone!

We found Adrienne a year ago after we brought our 12 week old greyhound puppies home, as we were looking for an AKC Star certified puppy trainer. We took both pups to her puppy classes and one of them to nose work classes. She has also been our go-to boarder when we travel, as we can trust that the dogs will be well-cared for and get some training reinforcement to boot. Highly recommended.

Adrienne has been fabulous in helping me with my young retriever. I am an experienced trainer but have been limited because of an injury. Her methods are very clots my own. She is excellent at reading the dogs.

Adrienne and her staff are professional, patient, educational, consistent, and a pleasure to work with. We have 2 dogs in other words double trouble. She trained us to work with our dogs, gave us lot's of interactive examples to help us and our dogs succeed. We have been practicing the methods that we were given and the results have been amazing. She is also available for questions if things are still unclear on what to do. We are very, very, happy with her company. Highly recommended. Susan & Edgar Blackledge
