I was having major leash pulling with a lead leash & escaping. Training needed for basics was given without charge along with a different type of collar. I wanted my dog to be a service animal but she’s a bit reactive.. The new collar & tips are a game changer & I am no longer being yanked around. Thank you so much for your time & wisdom. I look forward to learning more with my pup.

I can't express enough how great Sal and Kimbleree are. From the moment we talked to Sal about how she could assist us with our 1-year-old chihuahua mix, April, they were empathetic, explained their training method thoroughly, and answered all our inquiries. After a few home visits with Sal and Kimberlee, we decided to enroll April in their board and training program. It was the best decision we could have made. April stayed with them for three weeks and returned as a wonderful dog. She no longer guarded her food, knew how to sit and lay down, and her fear of people and other dogs had significantly improved. If you're considering working with a dog trainer, Sal and Kimberlee are the best!

Sal is an amazing dog trainer! Both of our dogs went to training camp with Sal. Each dog (and each dog owner) had different struggles to work on. Our dogs came home happy, healthy, and knowing what was expected. Her training techniques are intense, but they work. We missed our pups tremendously while they were at camp. Sal kept us up to date on their progress and met with us once a week to train us to be good dog owners. We consider this an investment in our pups. Training is hard work and requires follow through. If your family is struggling with your dog's behavior, then go see Sal; I highly recommend Dedication Dog Training!

They are fantastic. Absolutely 0 reservations or red flags working with them. If you are reading this then you are probably looking for a trainer... Rather then recommending these guys, I'd recommend you are discerning and listen to your gut when talking to any trainer. If they don't listen to you and think they know your dog after first meeting, if the dogs they work with look shut down, if they are so "positive" that they can't communicate back to the dog, if they can't get back to you professionally about scheduling, look elsewhere. If you get a tingle, look elsewhere. Maybe its because the trainer is not a good fit. Maybe it's because you are not ready for that training style in your training journey, but may be ready later. I love working with Sal and Perdis. I have worked with twos positive trainers, one other balanced trainer, and have gone to lots of training classes that have other trainers. They are amazing for a ton of reasons. But two things that really stand them apart. 1) Sal REALLY listens. Even if I am wrong, they understand that part of this is training the human. We talk through things I don't understand. If what they are telling me to do won't work for us , we find another way. If describe something about my dog as an antopromorphism, Sal still listens to glean whatever information is applicable. 2) Perdis is ON TOP of scheduling and questions. Yes this sound like it should be a given, but dog trainers are dog people not people people. On top of Sal's training expertise, Perdis knows a ton about animal behavior and they make a fantastic team answering follow up questions.
