About
My work stands out from others because it is personalized to each client's very specific needs. I work closely with each client, listening to their particular needs and I then apply a customized strategy to help the owner and their dog(s) achieve a healthy relationship and attain seemless communication. Each client's situation is different, but providing specific tools and solutions for both owner and dog is always my goal. I enjoy most when I am able to help people shift their attitude and way of thinking about how they relate to and communicate with their dogs. By making small behavioral changes and taking the everyday environmental context into consideration, as well as providing basic understanding of dog language, the human/dog relationship improves greatly. Mutual understanding is achieved, and both the owner's and the dog's needs are met, creating a more harmonious relationship. Teaching this is what I enjoy most.

My experience with Jose from start to finish was outstanding. From his initial response to my query, I could tell that José was somebody that I'd like to work with. Prior to the formal training session, Jose spoke with me by phone to learn about my situation, to find out exactly what I was hoping for, and to explain his philosophy. That conversation confirmed that Jose was truly the right fit for me and my recently adopted poodle/terrier mix. The two hour training session was remarkably helpful and successful. After that one session, my dog, who previously sat on a chair at the table with us during dinner, learned to stay in his bed during dinner – no more begging! He also taught me fundamentals about training that I have been able to successfully implement since our session. My session with Jose was extremely valuable, and I highly recommend him. I should also mention that he was extremely responsive, on time, and professional. Also, a couple of days of our training, Jose followed up with me to check in and see how things were going and offer further assistance if I needed.

After 5.5 years of living the carefree bachelor life, Kingsford and I took the plunge into adulthood and moved in with my super neat, no pets on the furniture girlfriend and her dog + 2 cats. It was time for a trainer. We as a family did the training at what has become our apartment and Jose took the time to answer any questions and go over background, dog mentality, etc. We learned a lot about what was going through Kingsford's mind and how best to train him accordingly, both in the apartment and on leash. It took mere moments to learn what Jose was explaining to us and the results have proven incredible. With 6 beings in a NYC studio apartment, we have all managed to live in harmony thanks to Jose's tips. Subsequent to the training, Kingsford had trouble refraining from urinating inside the building once we left the apartment unit. I sent Jose a text and he promptly got back to me and walked me through potential issues, some more dog mentality, and resolutions. I could not be more pleased or grateful with the training and follow up. Highly recommended!

Jose used his intellect to help me understand my dogs intellect/thinking in certain stressful situations. Jose trained me so I can train my pup Bella! It was a positive experience.
