I just wrapped up the basic obedience course with my german shepherd mix, and she is a different dog! Chai was aggressive, impulsive, reactive, and terrified of kids. In our evaluation, she was barking and snarling at a stuffed dog in their office. By the end of of the training, she was happily following instructions in a group class of over 10 dogs. The biggest thing we're walking away with is the tools to succeed. I can't recommend Haywood and his staff highly enough, they're worth every penny.

Haywood is excellent for any training needs. They are very patient, friendly, and caring and always ready to help. My dog pulled constantly on the leash and did not listen well when called. I noticed big differences even after the first lesson. I highly recommend Haywood's service

Mr. Haywood and his dog trainers could not be any nicer. Our Wheaten Terrier is much smarter then we thought she was and is listening to us better then we could have imagined. We have also continued to use their services for boarding when we are away. We have been super happy with the results and on going work.

We've enjoyed working with Haywood. He can get my dog to do anything! We aren't done with training yet but we are well on the way.

I had a great experience working with Mr. Haywood he does more than train dogs but the owner as well. My dog Rocko was dog aggressive because of fear. But in less that 3 classes in he was better! He was sitting next to dogs and he has never done that not even as a puppy. This is worth the money and the time. If you do what Mr. Haywood says your dog will come out better!
