Remi | American Doberman | Bakersfield, California

Remi, the American Doberman, is now a part of our Two Week Board and Train program. She already possesses a decent grasp of basic obedience, but off-leash situations can make her a bit skittish around certain noises. Additionally, her recall could use some improvement when she’s off leash. Remi is an excellent family dog who thoroughly enjoys staying active. Notably, she gets along splendidly with other dogs, making her a social and friendly companion.
