I found James on thumbtack I was desperate and searching for a solution for my untrainable pup. I watched thousands of trainings videos and nothing I ever did worked. My pup is an 8 month of Rottweiler, who is 85 pounds. I wanted a solution now while he was small enough for me to handle him. I expressed a fear to James that when he was an adult dog I wouldn’t be able to control him, because these dogs can be massive (thick) dogs. He suggested we do the 5 week leadership program, and after 1 lesson I noticed a huge improvement. He no longer walked me, I could walk him. I will be honest it’s not magic you have to be dedicated and get rid of your old habits. If their isn’t an improvement it’s because you’re not putting in the effort needed. James told me several times my baby is spoiled which is absolutely true, I had to break bad habits. You can do that and still love your dog and dog will still love you, I promise! Even my “untrainable” pup who was causing chaos could be trained!

James did a truly awesome job of teaching us to work with our dogs. We felt he really went above and beyond to make sure that each lesson was tailored to the individual issues we were trying to work on with each of our two dogs - age 2 and 5. We appreciated that he made that sure we understood and were able to master the training on our own after each class so that we could continue to work with the dogs on our own between classes. He was one of the few trainers we spoke with that really seemed interested in making sure our little family “pack” would function for all of us so that we would have harmony in our home. We were impressed both with our dogs and our own progress after each lesson! We may return for the off leash training down the road when we have mastered what we have learned in this first round of classes. We feel confident and feel like we are now in control instead of the dogs ruling the roost! His prices were reasonable which was another plus! James was also always responsive and returned our messages and calls quickly. We highly recommend Midas Touch for training your dogs of any age.
