They seem to be knowledgeable about German Shepherds, but Pedro unfortunately lacks the communication skills and attitude for working with the owner to train them and their dog. Had he been less rude and unprofessional, I would have been open to working with him, but I will look elsewhere for training.

Pedro, Amy, and Samantha are miracle workers. My GSD and I have been training with them for about 2.5 years now, and she (and I!) has gone from troublesome to fitting perfectly into my and my family's lives. Pedro's instruction is fair, effective and insightful and his words are always calm and even-handed. I cannot possibly thank them enough for the difference Cedar Creek Shepherds has made in the lives of my dog and I. Their help has been absolutely priceless. Go to them with the highest confidence. I'd give 6 stars if I could.
Pedro and Amy have been lifesavers!! They helped me with training and handling skills with my Doberman. They gave me a safe place to board him too. Niles loved them and you could tell he enjoyed going to spend time with them. They are excellent trainers and wonderful people.
The best! The training is tailored to the breed of dog and ability of the owner! Amy helped me get a mini bernedoodle trained as a service dog and has worked with me and my young german shepherd. Their methods are solid and they are true professionals who really understand the dogs (and are patient with the owners too)!
I would give Pedro, Amy, and Sam 10 out of 5 stars if I could. We went to them over 4 years ago in search of a well-bred GSD.

I would give Pedro, Amy, and Sam 10 out of 5 stars if I could. We went to them over 4 years ago in search of a well-bred GSD. We immediately fell in love with them as breeders, feeling a palpable passion for their research and knowledge of breeding healthy dogs. They deeply care about these dogs, even after they go home for the first time - something seldomly seen these days. When our puppy got older, we went to Pedro and Amy for training. They helped not only train our young puppy, but also taught us how to handle him and keep him accountable. Once started, Amy helped us with our rescue we’ve had years prior, getting her off of her trazodone and seeing her blossom into a confident dog who enjoys going on new adventures! About a year later, they helped us find the perfect third addition to our family! We’ve often trusted them to watch our dogs for weeks at a time for vacation; something we would never do with anyone else on the planet. Cedar Creek Shepherds exemplifies ethical and passionate breeders, as well as exceptional dog (AND HANDLER) trainers. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs. I recommend Cedar Creek Shepherds to anyone looking to do what’s best for you and your dog.
