So, what can I say but WOW!! Our Charlie Boy had been through a previous 30 day "boot camp" with another trainer, numerous and extensive sessions with two other trainers and the results had been ZERO improvement (in fact, he got worse) to date until we met David. Charlie spent two weeks at David's board and train facility and came home today with 80%-90% of his issue GONE. We were at the point where Charlie would instantly flip out and attack ME when we even tried to step out the front door with him and it was 10x worse once we got outside and he saw another dog. Today, he had a minor meltdown going out the front door, but was quickly and easily redirected and was able to focus and continue with our walk without any issues. We passed by a few dogs and he paid them ZERO attention, which was absolutely AMAZING. Before his time with David, I literally could not be within 50-60 yards of another dog without him going crazy and attacking me, since he couldn't get to the other dog. David did an absolutely incredible job in just two weeks and we will continue with what he taught us and how to handle Charlie. I honestly could not be happier with the job David did with Charlie. It's nothing short of a miracle and well worth the money. I honestly didn't think we'd ever be able to leave the house or be anywhere near another dog until today. THANK YOU DAVID!!!

I haven’t even started with David but ever since I paid for the downpayment, he’s been responsive and would answer any question I have while waiting for our first day of training. He was even able to accommodate my needs as a new puppy owner based on what training I want for my dog. I’m glad I chose him! 🥰

I spoke with David and he is one amazing individual. He called me for a consultation for my pit bull-husky who is four years old and our family just got a puppy, who our four year old was aggressive towards. The four year old is trained and David reassured me that the training I have done with my older dog if continued and solidified would help correct the situation. He put our hearts at ease and let us know that he is here for us if any more questions need answering. He saved us tons of money and stress, through his honesty. You can tell that this is truly his passion which nowadays is hard to find. I Highly recommend heightened instincts for all your dog training needs. Thank you again David!!!

David was fantastic! He listened to what we were already doing and offered a lot of great recommendations to correct not only the dog, but us. 😅 I am definitely only using him with my future training needs.

David is a very genuine and caring dog person. I had him train my dog Miso, who I was very scared to let go of and very worried about. During the free consultation David made me feel very comfortable with letting Miso go to him and showed me how knowledgeable he is with dog training. He answered every question I asked and had no problem doing so. Miso is reactive and has separation anxiety and when I got him back the progress he had made was immense. Even though there are still signs of reactivity and separation anxiety, the improvement Miso made was big. I never expected him to come back a perfect dog but he came back really well. I am able to enjoy Miso in public now and will continue with the training that David set up for me and Miso. Thanks for all your work David!

Thank you Uriel! You and Miso make a great team and I have no doubt he'll continue improving with you by his side! He's a really smart and a great dog who just needs to be shown a clear path to success! Keep up the good work and always feel free to reach out if you need any help or have any questions!
