About Focus Dog Training - Obedience Dog Training

With good obedience training, your dog can be trained to come now and come fast--and to execute this command reliably. Ultimately, this creates a more enjoyable relationship between you and your dog. I am a combination trainer, which means I can recommend which training aids best fit your dog’s personality and environment (home, park, trails, neighborhood), without sacrificing any of your dog’s behaviors that you love. I use multiple training methods to meet your goals. I will put together a customized training program for you and your dogs specific needs.

At first I was skeptical of dog training due to the fact that my dogs do not listen AT ALL. However, with just 3 sessions I have already seen them start to get better. I really enjoy this program and am looking forward to future sessions! My dogs Bailey and Jaxson seem to love it too.

I wanted to say how much I appreciate Rick with Dog Focus Training. In the few weeks Rick has been working with my German Shepherd Jacob I have seen huge improvements in his behavior. Jacob has become more of an enjoyment to be around, better mannered, and is responding better to commands. Jacob was previously uncontrollable and destructive. He is a dog whose previous trainer told me that he was poorly bred and therefore untrainable. Rick proved him wrong. Thank you Rick for your expertise and understanding of the dog behavior.

It would be hard to imagine anyone doing any better than Focus Dog Training has done in helping to get our very active and independent thinking lab/pit mix under control. Rick comes into your dog's environment and helps you to learn the proper techniques to get your pup to be a good member of your family. He asks you what traits you want or don't want your dog to exhibit; and then structurès a program specifically tailored to your dog. He stresses consistentency, persistence and patience. We couldn't be more happy with Hadley's progress so far; and, receive many kind comments from friends remarking at how well she is doing. Highly recommend!

I came to Rick at Focus Dog Training for help in training my puppy that had slowly become more and more aggressive. I am only a couple months in to training and I am amazed at how quickly my dog has progressed. My dog used to bark aggressively at almost everyone she saw, and this is no longer the case. I am convinced that this is because of Rick's techniques. He is not a "one size fits all" trainer. Over the phone and then at my first appointment, Rick got to know my dog in order to suggest the route we go for training. I am also very fond of Rick's method of payment. I like how he has you pay a one time fee for an unlimited number of training visits.

Rick with Focus Dog Training is a great dog trainer. With our first dog we used a big franchise to try to train our dog. That was a total waste of time and money. The dog training was a one size fits all. When we got our second dog we called Rick. It was apparent right away that not only does he know what he is doing but is very nice and makes you feel comfortable. Rick doesn’t use one way of training, he understands your dog and uses tools and techniques that will be successful for YOUR dog. His training works and it’s worth every penny. Just before we started training my puppy lab ate all the wires off my generator right before Hurricane Harvey. If our puppy was trained as she is now she wouldn’t have eaten and destroyed my generator and saved me a couple thousand dollars in surgery expenses to remove the wires. Rick with Focus Dog Training is the only dog training I would recommend.
