Made me feel very confident that I could learn to handle my large, strong dog. Gave me excellent tips and showed me how to succeed. Did not pressure me to purchase more sessions. Even followed up with a text. A nice and knowledgeable person. Only one of the listed trainers to contact me and then respond immediately when I contacted him.

Details: 2 - 10 years old • Large (41 - 70 lbs) • Private lessons • General obedience training • Leash pulling • My home, venue, etc.

Gary’s honesty was impressive. He told me I didn’t even need a trainer but understood why I was looking and what I was looking for. He said I only needed recall training which is all I wanted a trainer for. With 4 kids it’s hard to find the extra time to full train my dog.

Details: 1 dog • 2 - 10 years old • Extra large (70+ lbs) • General obedience training • Leash pulling • Private dog training lessons • I travel to the dog trainer • The dog trainer travels to me

Gary was more than punctual considering he drive from out of town. He is a master of what he does -- if I may call him a "dog whisperer", it would be most appropriate. Instantly, he commanded & controlled my 3 dogs. One of the dogs that is normally skittish stayed in the room and one of the dogs that usually barks at strangers seemed "at home" with Gary right away. In just 1 session, I had better controls of my 3 dogs. Feeding time is not a chaotic and noisy as it normally is. I felt my stress subsided quite a bit in just 1 session. I so appreciate the top notch service that Gary provided. I am so grateful and will use him again in the future. In addition, I will recommend him every time the opportunity presents itself.

Gary is very prompt & professional. We're impressed with his immediate connection with our dog & clarity with us. Had no problem with signing up for his training program. His instincts were right on target with our dog (and with us). Will follow up with review after we've completed training.

I was at point I wasn’t sure I could keep my dog. Everything about her was hard. She’s a great dog now. Gary is both knowledgeable and just a nice guy. I’m super grateful and sorry the lessons are over because he is just cool to talk with. You would be lucky to have him work with your dog.

Details: 1 dog • 0 - 12 months old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • Private dog training lessons • General obedience training • Leash pulling • Barking • Destructive behavior • The dog trainer travels to me
