Jonathan is the BEST. My SIL recommended him and I am so glad that she did. Clawdia (3yrs, boxer) was a maniac on her leash when other dogs walked by (but otherwise a perfect angel HA!), and Jonathan gave us both the tools and training we needed to get it under control. He loves what he does and you can certainly tell!! Highly recommend.

Don’t look any further than here. Jonathan works fast and officiant. Great personality and stays calm. Made everything easy to understand on reasons the behavior is happening and how to fix them. Once a client, you can reach him anytime there is a question. You are not left hanging. Support the whole way. He got my girls to coexist with each other. They were fighting and wounding each other. He fixed it and gave me the knowledge to fix it if it happens in the future. Saved us from needing to rehome a fur baby. In our opinion he is the best there is. You will NOT be disappointed. Relieve some of that dog stress and disobedience. Give him a call and schedule. Thank me later.

After working with several dog trainers over the years, I can confidently say that Jonathan has been the best. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and truly understands both dogs and the people who love them. His training system is simple, practical, and by far the most effective approach we've used. We started by working on our dogs begging at the table, and the results were almost immediate! We also addressed unnecessary barking and loose-leash walking, and we've seen such a positive change in all of those areas. What sets Jonathan apart is that he doesn't just train your dogs—he teaches your family how to communicate with them and reinforce the behaviors you want. The confidence and consistency he gave us have made a huge difference in our home. We are forever grateful for everything Jonathan has done for our family and our dogs. If you're looking for a patient, professional, and incredibly effective dog trainer, I can't recommend him highly enough!

We recently adopted a one-year-old Australian cattle dog/beagle mix. She's as sweet as they come but likes to bark and nip and was hard to handle on a walk and hard to get inside from the back yard (wouldn't come when we called).

We recently adopted a one-year-old Australian cattle dog/beagle mix. She's as sweet as they come but likes to bark and nip and was hard to handle on a walk and hard to get inside from the back yard (wouldn't come when we called). Jonathan was the answer to our prayers!! He gave us control over all these things with the behavioral techniques he recommended as well as a recommended (completely unpainful) device for interrupting the dog when she's doing undesirable things. It was amazing how quickly he took stock of who she was and what we should do to live happily with her. This took only two visits. Jonathan REALLY knows dogs!! Don't look for any other trainer, seriously.

After unexpectedly taking on a second goldendoodle puppy, our lives became chaos and after reading many other of Jonathan’s five star reviews we decided to start in home training with him. Within 1 session, I was sure he had switched out our dogs for 2 new ones. He has an extremely calm demeanor and could work on 1 thing 100 times and never get frustrated. He has extensive knowledge about dog behavior and was able to answer any question and provide recommendations during or after a session to ensure continuity of our training with him. I could not recommend him enough!!
