Tim is amazing! He is currently working on our 3 month pug. Our friends are amazed by how well trained Toby is for his age.
We did a lot of research before getting a dog. There is so much conflicting information online. We knew we needed an expert to help out. We did not want to teach our puppy bad habits that would be hard to correct down the line. Tim explains his methods and always asks if we are comfortable with his techniques.
Tim always comes on-time and prepared for lessons. He brings treats and toys for the training sessions and recommends items tailored for Toby. We receive personalized training notes via email to help us remember key points in training sessions. We get follow up texts/calls to see how our day to day training is coming along.
We are very glad we contacted Tim.

We have been so impressed with Timothy and his style of training! In just a few short lessons he has our boys listening, focused, and accomplishing commands we were never able to do on our own. He is very polite, precise, and communicates exceptionally well with us to relay training techniques to the animals. We cannot wait to see what he is able to teach our dogs, everytime he comes over they are excited to see him and eager to learn. wish we could give more than 5 stars Timothy is absolutely fantastic!

My family and I had our very first session with Timothy today which was free of charge. He came on time, prepared and really took the time to listen to myself and my children's concerns about the training of our dog Peanut. From the time Timothy walked through the door, he had already begun to work with Peanut through use of non-verbal but firm gestures all while listening to us, providing feedback and observing Peanut and our interactions with Peanut. He worked with Peanut inside the home and outside in our yard. Timothy was very patient with all of us and took the time to explain and demonstrate commands for Peanut. Additionally, we all felt very at ease with him the moment he walked into our home. Although Peanut was barking and jumping on Timothy when he walked through the door, in a matter of minutes without Timothy ever saying a word, Peanut was sitting quietly at his feet. Timothy also provides detailed notes and recommendations of the session because he provides so much valuable information and wants to ensure success. I signed up for an 8 session package with confidence because he taught my family and Peanut so much within the hour he spent with us. I would highly recommend Timothy to anyone I know because he is excellent at what he does.

Timothy is well informed and great with our dogs. Do not let his age and experience fool you. He knows what he is doing. He gave us a free consultation which was basically an hour lesson accompanied with detailed notes to help us continue. His hourly rate is much more affordable than some of the others that were offered. One of our dogs is a bit fearful and will take a few lessons which we could not have afforded with many of the other trainers. Plus, they are trained in our home. The most important thing is he is teaching us how to improve our dogs behavior simply by how we approach them. I look forward to continuing our first lesson package. We can already see a major difference in them.

Awesome trainer. My german shepherd puppy was a bit of a handful and we really needed some support in teaching positive behaviors. Timothy was the perfect trainer. Always on-time, professional, courteous and attentive. He went above and beyond. He helped our pup learn sit, stay, lay down, wait, drop it, touch, to walk on a loose leash, and become less distracted by the outside like UPS men, cats, people, etc. He even led us through potty training our puppy successful from inside to out. Assisted us with crate training, correct harness/leashes and proper chew toys. Even helped us with some tricks like roll over, play dead, jump, and more. Invaluable experience. We have a much more respectful pup!
