He is a good trainer.My dog listened to him and most of the time took the command. I have a lot of training for myself and he gave me great info to do that. I am very happy with Nate.

My pup is super anxious and I wasn't really sure what to do about it or how to help. Meeting with Nathan, he identified her problem right away and gave me some tools to help. We're only a few sessions in but I know that she and I are communicating better and I can't wait to see how her progress continues over our time with Nathan!

Very responsive to our needs for dogtraining. Our very frisky dog was picked up for "boarding school," actually "boarding training," returned for a visit home, then picked up again for her second week. Did so well, she returned for additional refresher period when we needed to board for vacation. Thanks Good DogTraining for making our dog a "good dog."

We have had 2 sessions with Nathan and it has been a tremendous help. Our 2 lab puppies have taken to his methods and we have gained a lot of confidence in only a couple of weeks. We are looking forward to continuing working with Nathan to ensure our puppies are on the path to success!
