I recently got my first dog and had heard very good things about TWK. Before our appointment, I did make a point of taking a trip past here so that I’d know how long it would take, where it was, etc…
While it does appear to be in an area that is a little isolated and desolate, it was by no means scary. I’ve been in the area in the dark, and even then… I still wouldn’t call it scary.
The facilitiy was not huge, but was certainly large enough to accommodate a good size class. I worked with Cheryl who seemed knowledgable and friendly and was very easy to work with. She made a point of explaining to me how to teach my dog things, how not to try and teach him, etc. She had an exceptional knowledge about bully breeds and how to get through to them (a few places I’ve spoken to won’t even allow pits on their property!!), which was a big plus.
Overall, I liked the school and their program. I look forward to joining one of their regular classes once my schedule will allow for it.

I’m still trying to figure out why this school was so highly recommended to us by three different people. We brought our dog here last year and I was absolutely not impressed. First of all, the facility and its surrounding area is very isolated and is worse in the dark. I’m not the only one who said this.
Secondly, I still have reservations about the instructor’s methods. She appears to be rather scattered, talks too fast, and was quite rough with some dogs. Our dog actually Unilocaled when she grabbed his hind legs. Her manner can be intimidating one minute, then nice the next – with people and with dogs. Also, she didn’t follow up with my e-​mails or phone calls; I had to keep after her.
Years ago, we had taken our GSD to a school in Morris County — very highly recommended. The complete opposite of TWK. He knew what he was doing.
I’ve had dogs my whole life and know what to look for.
