dog training and walking--after my squirrel-crazed golden retriever left me with a dislocated shoulder, I contacted True Dog for training and exercising my girl and he transformed her into a pup that's a joy to walk and play with, and transformed me into a knowledgeable and in-control dog owner. He worked with her in a variety of situations until she reliably responded to his commands in all environments, and then worked with me until I understood how control is communicated to a dog. I was delighted to continue using his exercising services on a regular basis--a tired dog is a happy dog!--and was impressed with his professionalism, flexibility, knowledge, and perseverance. I'm a happy dog owner who happily recommends True Dog...no more dislocated shoulders, only a well-behaved dog who is a fun companion.

If you are looking for a professional dog trainer, you have found that person in Jim Diem. Jim was knowledgeable, professional, flexible, and compassionate in helping our family with our challenges with our shelter dog. We were unprepared for a dog with fear aggression, and upon a happenstance meeting with Jim our lives changed dramatically. Jim worked with our dog and our family to improve the quality of our dog’s life, as well as enhance our understanding of how an informed owner should behave. Jim was not the first trainer we worked with. He is the only trainer we will work with now. We are indebted to Jim and his expertise for all he has done for us. Thanks Jim! Beth Hanssens + Family

Jim is calm, focused, patient and understands dogs at all levels. He's especially good with challenged pups, and has guided me to a better understanding about my dog and our relationship. He is in it for the long haul. I've known Jim well for over 20 years, and wouldn't trust anyone else to guide me with my dog.

Jim has cured my golden retriever with his issues with leash-pulling and fear of car rides making him a happier dog, and me a happier dog owner. His calm/ assertive approach and insights on dog psychology were 100% effective.

Jim is exactly as advertised. He came to our home to meet our new puppy and is clearly experienced and confident with dogs. He tailored our time together to include the kids and gave us advice specific to our household and schedule. So far so good! Week 2 of new puppy so a work in process. I'll look forward to calling him again with questions as they arise.
