Legend Acres receives a grant from Jim Moran Foundation to launch a virtual, on-demand dog training program.

Surprise, AZ: As many businesses adapt during COVID-19, Legend Acres Dog Training is developing new ways to bring high-quality, force-free, positive reinforcement dog training to customers. Through their new, on-demand dog training program, people will be able to receive the same dog training program as they would have in person via a virtual platform on their schedule from the comfort of their home.
