Steve from Curiosity Satisfied Dog Camp is fantastic! He is friendly, knowledgeable, and very organized. My dogs absolutely adore him. I especially appreciated how Steve clearly explained the rules and expectations, using real-life examples to help everyone understand. He then gave us opportunities to practice, which made learning much easier and more effective. His teaching style is engaging, supportive, and easy to follow. He genuinely cares about the dogs and their owners, and it shows in every interaction. Highly recommended!

Steve is an excellent dig behaviorist. In just a few short hours he was able to identify where my dog needed work and gave me the tools to correct her behavior. It’s amazing how quickly it worked! Not only is Steve good at his job, but he is funny and professional too! Highly recommend!

My little girl dog was used for breeding at a puppy mill. She is 4yrs. now so they don't need her anymore.....horrible!!!! Basically she has PTSD. Steve gave me great advice and I could see a big change that first day. Still a long road ahead but now I have more info. Thanks to Steve, I'm encouraged that this girl can have a normal/happy doggy life. Her fear has really decreased but still alittle there. Life has just begun for her.ALL thanks to Steve!

Daniel is outstanding. He was on time and very professional. He immediately knew what to do with not only the dogs, but with us too. We’ve been using the training tools for just over 24 hours and have already noticed small changes in their behavior. Our dogs are responding very well to their new training.
