We had some training with Michael Litzski for our pup, now 2 yrs old. He is very understanding and truly listens to your description of problems and then steers the training session towards how to get our pup to respond both in the training session and at home for our follow thru training. Very pleased with Michael and would recommend anyone to seek out his input on training for bad or misunderstood problems with your pup around people, other dogs or issues at home.
I searched for years for a trainer to actually take my dog's and my family's needs seriously. Michael was responsive, knowledgeable, and quick to adapt training based on what was needed. I look forward to continuing training with Michael at BHV once my dog is ready for the next steps!
Bibi is amazing. She was great with our Sheepadoodle Lola and very patient with us!! She helped us work thru many bad behaviors. I highly recommend BHV training.
