Ben and Devotion to Dogs has been great. I have shared my experience with 2 other people at my work and both of them have used Devotion to Dogs. Ben and everyone at Devotion to Dogs is that good. I rarely leave reviews for anything but I felt like this company earned it. Every time Ben said he was going to be there, he was there. You will not be disappointed by using Devotion to Dogs to train your pup. I know I’m not.

Ben is absolutely fantastic. I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and every time we are together he teaches us something new and shows us new ways to better understand our dogs and how to work-better with them.
I have recommended him to friends who have had fantastic experiences as well.
Most highly recommended!

Ben is a lifesaver! I had major concerns with my new rescue who was being aggressive with my other dogs. I was worried that these actions were due to an overactive prey drive. I had already gone through "other" obiedance training and it hadn't helped. Enter Ben to the rescue!! He was able to identify my puppy's problem and gave excellent training. He educated me on how to train my dog and I had instant results! I appreciate all the time and help Ben gives even after the sessions have ended, he is always there to help! Can't say enough about how grateful I am for him and his whole team!

Ben is amazing to work with! In just one visit I see a complete change in my 4 year old staffy who is a huge leash puller. It's always been dream of mine to be able to walk my dog, instead of her walking me! In just a few hours, he taught me how to do just that; walks are now enjoyable, instead of aggravating. I cannot wait to learn more in our follow up training session. Ben is straight and to the point, compassionate, sensitive to the needs of his trainees, and gives back 100%. He explains the psychology behind animal behavior, and then gives you the tools to be successful. I'm so happy I found Devotion to Dogs: If you think need training, you need Ben!!

We called Ben for help after our dogs started behaving aggressively towards each other. He came to our aid immediately!! We have large breed dogs and we had lost control and he helped us learn about being a good and responsible dog owners. He would drive all the way out to our home in Pine Valley and would work with each dog - he gave us the tools and knowledge to help build our confidence with managing our dogs. Ben and his team even took them in for a quick board & train to sharpen up their learning skills! Ben has taught us so much about our dogs and his knowledge about training dogs is amazing. We are forever grateful for all of his commitment to our four legged friends and family members.
