My dog has benefited from my improved handling but also from the weekly practice with Ace. He has helped us refine our approach to obstacle performance by challenging us.

Editorial review from Citysearch 7/6/2012

You have gave my dog great training lessons I didn?t know my dog couldn?t do as much as you showed me, I guess I underestimated a little! Not any more we are here with you and continue to come to see how healthy my dog can be and to have him happy! Thanks very much to you trainer. more

My Dogs (and I) Adore Ace 12/9/2011

I've been taking agility lessons from Ace Russell at Agility Center of East Tennessee (ACET) for over 2 years. Despite me being a first time dog owner and pretty stubborn, Ace was very patient with me and my dogs. I always look forward to our agility lessons because Ace makes it so much fun for me and the dogs - and my dogs absolutely adore Ace. more

Great Teacher, Great Results 11/28/2011

Ace clearly enjoys teaching agility. Each class is taught with enthusiasm, a great sense of humor, and a sharp eye for detail. His systematic approach for teaching the 'rules' of handling make it so much easier for me when I compete at agility trials. He has helped me immensely with methods to motivate my dogs, and always has good, constructive criticism to correct any handling errors I might make. I would highly recommend him to anyone thinking about taking up the sport of agility, even if you think you don't want to compete. He just might convert you! more

Fantastic Progress! 11/18/2011

I've never been interested in showing my dog, and she's 100% Purebred Mutt, but I like ACET's approach and goals. What I really wanted to work on with my girl was building her confidence in herself, and building my confidence in her to respond and listen to me even when she's off leash. Ace worked incredibly well with both of us, and my relationship with Mila is better because of it. We've even watched some of the 'Agility Parties,' because even though she's not ready for it, it's amazing to watch all of the student pairs go to work. I'd recommend this program to anyone who is looking for a long term training solution based on mutual trust and communication. more
