I wish I’d found Bar sooner! He has transformed my dog and repaired our relationship. My rescue pup was reactive and unpredictable, which stressed me out and caused us to have a tense relationship. After doing the board and train with Bar, she is much calmer, much happier and much more predictable. Working on the training back at home has deepened our connection and we have much more fun together now. We feel more like a team. Prior to finding Bar I had sent her to another trainer who was a negative person and that energy made both my dog and I even more stressed. Bar is a happy, kind, positive person and that transmits to both dog and owner. I feel safe with him and completely trust him with my pup, and my dog absolutely loves him. I’m so grateful that I found him and highly recommend him. He was recommended by a friend whose dog he trained and I’ve since referred a friend to him who loved him also. He genuinely cares about dogs and wants them to be happy and well adjusted. His property is clean and well set-up and it’s clear that he’s a professional who knows exactly how to solve problems. If you’re on the fence about sending your dog away for a month with him, let this be the sign to just go for it, you’ll be glad that you did!

Bar helped us train our Belgian Malinois/ Dutch Shepherd. He helped Tahoe become calmer and understand commands. Bar was patient and my puppy made significant progress. It’s been a joy to watch our puppy’s behavior improve. I would recommend Bar to others. Thanks Bar we appreciate you so much.

I am so happy I chose Bar for the obedience training of our 3 year old sheepadoodle. Koko was reactive to dogs and strangers by barking and pulling on the leash. Walking was quite the challenge. Koko completed the board and train program. Bar taught Koko to focus and follow commands. I visited Koko during the boarding and Bar provided the needed guidance for me to continue the behaviors once home. Koko is now a pleasure to walk. She is focused on me and my commands. Bar has a gentle but firm method of training. Bar is quick to respond to communications. Bar explained what I needed to do to be successful and it worked!!

My dog Buster is about 3 years old and he just finished training with bar. Buster has been a good boy up until about 2 1/2 he started to become very territorial with our guests and any dogs we saw when I would walk him. Bar has completely corrected this behavior and has also taught me how to continue to work with Buster instead of enabling his behavior. Buster is back to being a good boy and we are very happy with the results. Highly recommend bar to friends and family :)

Bar K9 Dog Training was the best decision we have made for our dog, Ludo. Ludo is a very loving and energetic dog, and had some difficult habits of excitably barking, jumping, and waking us in the wee hours of the morning. He was very territorial of me, and would get frustrated when embracing my partner or my other dog. Bar immediately recognized his sensitive nature, and was very calm in his approach. I really appreciated that Bar made sure to involve us so much on the training. He spend as much time as we needed to to help me and my partner understand our part in correcting his behavioral challenges. Upon arriving for our first training session, our dog looked the healthiest he had been after spending three weeks in Bar’s care. His progress was night and day…We were amazed when Bar threw treats in front of him and he did not rush to eat them, but waited patiently for Bar’s command (he was the smallest of his litter and had been very anxious/eager around food in the past). We are currently expecting a baby, and it was very important for us to correct some of these behaviors before their arrival. We can now rest assured that Ludo has an amazing foundation of training for us to work with - and we can actually get some sleep in the morning, all thanks to Bar! Ludo and Bar developed a very special relationship over his time there. I am so happy my dog was in his care, and grateful that he is available to us moving forward.
