John and Diane are AMAZING! We were actually considering rehoming our puppy as he had some really tough behaviors that we couldn’t overcome. After two sessions with John and Diane we saw a complete 180 from him. He is part of our family now and couldn’t imagine not having him in our lives. If you have any issues with your dog whatsoever, John and Diane have you covered, they are the best!

After rescuing a dog from the Cornelius shelter, my husband and I knew we would need some help with his behaviors and Diane and John came highly recommended. I never realized that we also needed training. Diane and John were amazing. They taught us how to work with our boy, Zeke with no treats or any harsh methods and we were so impressed. Just after 2 months we have a well-behaved and super happy dog. Also, they are there if you need them. I look forward to continuing our journey with them to make Zeke the best that he can be.
Diane and John are amazing! After one visit we had the tools to make our dog better-behaved. He was actually listening to us! I highly recommend calling them with your dog behavior problems!
Diane and John have done a phenomenal job training my dog Duek. I was dealing with separation anxiety, aggression, jumping and front door, barking, and charging. They offer him a lifetime of the dog service guarantee and use only humane methods which is why I love them. I recommend them to anybody looking for a dog trainer behavioral specialist in the Charlotte area. Very impressed.
We wish we could give them a zero stars, be careful.
