Testimonials

"We might have been slower learners than your other clients but it has been great to see the breakthroughs... It's taken a lot of extra work for us to be consistent but we can't really believe the change in Buddy... no more crazy barking at everything that moves and no more ankle nipping!"

Tim Harold
Australian Cattle Dog owner
Bellevue, Washington

"Your teaching was really effective for us... we really appreciate how you handled us the same way you handled Trek... just the right amount of praise and correction!"

Suzanne and Rob M.
Akita owners
Bothell, Washington

"Our neighbors asked us to thank you?... we've all really noticed dramatic improvements in Lucy... she is much more attentive to us and doesn't harass everyone on the block anymore. Its great being able to take her with us on trips and to the park."

Sarah Markowitz
German Shepherd Dog owner
Seattle, Washington

"After adopting him from the shelter, we began to have problems right away... Previous trainers that we went to for help told us that (Max) was a problem dog and we might not be able to train him... thank you for all of your efforts in solving our problems with him... he's greatly improved."

Faith H.
(Adopted) “Mutt” owner

"Sam just got too big for us to control... thank you for showing us how to clearly communicate with him... he's much easier to handle now."

Don and Louise S.
Bullmastiff owners
Renton, Washington

"Baron has learned to respect what I need for him to do rather than always challenge me. He now roams our home, which I never thought would be possible. He sleeps at my feet, while I work at my desk and he is great company. Sean is great at getting into the mind of our dog and helping us to disengage from the power struggle and to see things from the dog's point of view."

Rachel Clasen
Leonberger owner
Seattle, Washington

"We tried several different trainers and we still had problems with Mocha. He seemed to be fairly attentive when we had a bag of food but God help us if we ever ran out of food treats... he was no longer interested in us at all... since we've worked with you he's really seemed like a different dog... he's obedient all the time and seems a lot more calm in situations that really stressed him out before."

Terri R.
Bernese Mountain Dog owner
Seattle, Washington

"Just wanted to thank you for all of your help with our dogs. Supa's a lot more settled and attentive than before and doing really well... until we worked with you, we were pretty nervous about him around other dogs and people... he's really changed around (dogs and people) now... thanks for all of your extra efforts in teaching us to work with dogs... it's much easier taking them places now."

Jason Avicolli.
Chocolate Lab owner
Seattle, Washington

"I really thought that we were going to have to give up Hoss with how aggressive he'd become... thank you so much for giving him and us a new lease on life... after you taught us more about how we were being confusing to him... and you worked us through being consistent and establishing the proper relationship with him he's really settled in and is so much more fun to be around for other people. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Tom S.
Boxer owner
Bellevue, Washington

"We've been shocked how Rocky has responded to your training (or our training I guess). He's super with everyone that comes to the house now... no more incessant barking... no more racing around uncontrollably... I'm sure we weren't the easiest clients for you but you were patient and professional with us... thank you for all of your efforts. He's a totally different dog now."

Rachel R.
Border Collie owner
Kirkland, Washington

"People were not coming over to the house anymore because Sheba had become such a nuisance (especially with jumping up on people)... after trying several private trainers we'd sort of lost hope about what could be done with her... thank you for all your help in turning her into the kind of dog that we love having around now. We didn't realize how much she had been preventing us from doing by being so out of control...oh, and people come over to the house all the time again... some of our friends even accused us of replacing our dog with new one that looks just like her!!"

Frank and Lynn K.
Siberian Husky owner
Seattle, Washington

"Prior to the lessons, we could not walk around Green Lake without Louella barking and pulling on us. This is no longer a problem. In fact, when she is on lead... she is quite easy to control, even when other dogs are barking at her and pulling to get closer to us."

Anne Bell
German Shepherd owner
Seattle, Washington
