Nick is a terrific trainer.  He knows his stuff and is gentle and patient with all dogs.  My dog, Buddee has learned a lot in 2 weeks and now, with Nick’s training of me, I have the knowledge to continue with Buddee’s training.  I’d recommend Nick without hesitation. You will enjoy working with him and you and your dog will learn lots.

Nick worked with my dog Bruno for 2 weeks in which we introduced the prong, socialized Bruno, and used the e collar. Nick was great at answering all my questions and guiding me through the training drills. Bruno has greatly improved at listening on walks and not reacting to other dogs.

Nick arrived on time and was eager to assist. My dog has reactive issues, and Nick was able to demonstrate how to handle my golden retriever when he was having tantrums and being disobedient. I believe it will take a few more sessions to fully address the issues with my dog, but I’m glad to have learned how to properly use the prong collar and establish myself as the alpha. Thanks, Nick!

Nick is amazing. Not only does he know his stuff but he is kind and takes the time that’s needed to address the issue rather than just rushing through. I highly recommend.
