Absolutely the best there is in San Diego. Our Golden Retriever had socialization, obedience, and leash aggression issues. Ben was able to quickly identify the reasons behind his issues and correct the bad behavior. More importantly, he was able to train us so we could continue training! Highly recommend the board and train. Ben and his team treated our dog and us like family. His dedication to animal behavioral rehabilitation is unparalleled. Now both our dog, our neighbors, and us are living a much happier life! Cannot thank you enough Ben! Worth every single penny.

Ben is the real deal when it comes to helping you figure out how to train your dog. His skill set is top notch and the instructions he provides are very clear and straightforward. He knows how to suggest the right tools to make it work. If you feel like you almost want to give up on your dog, don’t! Call Ben. He will make it right. My husband and I are amazed with the transformation of our dogs with Ben’s help. Our dogs have been nonstop barkers at the door the entire time we’ve had them. We just assumed it was something we had to deal with until we couldn’t take it anymore and people couldn’t walk into our house without our dogs jumping on them. We called Ben and he walked us through the process of training our dogs correctly. It’s been a complete makeover and our dogs now know how to properly welcome guests. Thank you Ben!

Ben at Devotion To Dogs is an amazing trainer. We got our girl Pozie from the SD Humane Society (GSD) and were so glad we found Ben to help train her. Before Ben, Pozie pulled so hard on her leash that it was so hard to walk her and it literally felt like she was pulling our hand off. Now when we walk Pozie it’s so much better! She also used to be VERY reactive to dogs and she has gotten much better as well. She still needs a little tune up because she will react sometimes but, thankfully Ben is very responsive and has multiple packages to meet your needs and budget if you need a tune up. My husband and I 10/10 recommend Ben! Very straight forward and informative. We will be scheduling Pozie’s tune up very soon and look forward to it.
