Not only is Dustin extremely well-versed and educated in a wide range of canine training techniques, he also genuinely loves dogs. I have witnessed first hand so many of the dogs he’s trained and am continuously impressed by the almost instant results he is able to achieve even after just one session with a pup. He offers a wonderful balance of strict and rigorous training alongside play and affection. He is kind and approachable as a person. He knows what he’s doing! Highly recommend.

10/10 Recommend Dustin! We sent two dog to his 3 week board and train program, a puppy and a rescue dog who needed a lot of work and extra help. Both of our dogs were very reactive to other dogs and made it impossible to even walk them down the street. However, after the 3 week program, both are obedient, well behaved and are not even phased at the sight of another dog anymore. Throughout their stay with Dustin, he shared lots of photos and videos of their progress, gave them lots of fun and play time. After their program our dogs still get so excited to see Dustin, thats how I know how much he loved on and cared for them. Months after their boarding, Dustin still keeps in contact and answers any questions I might have.

His "service dog" attacked my dog I brought to him for training advice. Then he asked about ridding a home of flea infestations. Would NOT recommend!
