I HIGHLY recommend Matt for all dog training needs. He is incredibly knowledgeable and we saw a huge difference in our dogs after only 3 sessions. Matt listened carefully to all of our concerns regarding our dogs and specifically targeted those concerns. He trains in a positive way which I appreciated greatly. He was able to easily handle our dogs at the same time (which is not an easy task!) Thank you again Matt, you are amazing! Ralph and Sunny appreciate you 😃

Aggressive dog; Multiple dog family: Matt, Thank you for all you have done for us! Dealing with an aggressive dog was frightening for us, as the family, and especially when our other dogs are at such risk. My family appreciates all of your help and are grateful for your teachings. It has really given us, and set, a standard of communication when correcting behaviors. Once responding to bad behaviors with correct communication, things have surely turned for the best! Our babies are more controlled with company over and they now have their own designated spots.. Which is fantastic! Thank you so much for all of your help and training and effort!

We have an aggressive dog that we were at a loss to know what to do with. Matt gave us good tools to be able to get a better response from this dog, learn how to walk him properly and handle reactions from him in situations that were difficult. Would highly recommend Matt!!

Matt has been great providing strategies for my 6 1/2 year old rescue (high anxiety, excessive barking, etc). We’ve gone through multiple trainers and I’m confident that my fur baby will slowly start to feel her anxiety lessen. I’m excited to see what the future will bring! Thanks so much, Matt.

Matt is the best. I have only had one session with him so far and my dog is already transformed for the better. Before Matt, my dog was not potty trained to go outside due to him not being used to a leash & now all he wants to do is go outside to use the bathroom. Very happy!
