I am continuously in awe of this company's genuine passion for what they do, which is nothing short of miracle work. Stephen goes above and beyond to make sure the establishment is clean, well functioning and a kind atmosphere. The same kind of respect and passion he holds for the dogs he also reserves for customers and employees. Well educated, experienced and successful!

Steve Parent (WMK9) is simply the best at what they do... the cool thing about his operation is it's not a job for them it's a love of animals and humans... making our lives better. I have trusted Steve with my best friend, what more can I say.

A great group of trainers! Very knowledgeable,dedicated, and compassionate. Steve has taken dogs with behavior issues on the verge of being put down and turned them into loving safe community members that can be take. Anywhere. He has excelled training working and protection dogs, family pets learning obedience and manners, aggression issues, as well as what I am most proud of his amazing ability and compassion while working with and training service animals to help those with mental and physical disabilities. When someone asks if I know a trainer... Steve is always the one I recommend
