About Garrett Stevens' Alpha and Omega Dog Training

We train without treats. We behaviorally rehab without harsh handling. We tap into Internal motivation instead of shallow External motivation (positive or punitive). We guide people and dogs into maturity and mastery instead of keeping them hooked on immature reinforcement! If you’ve tried other training you will be blown away by the differences. For more info see our websites or read Garrett’s groundbreaking books on dog behavior (Dog Myths: What you Believe about dogs can come back to Bite You! and So Long Separation Anxiety!). Over 16 years experience!

Garrett threatened my life years ago while I was peacefully doing a doordash delivery waiting for my customer to come and get his food. I was on the public roadway. He went out of the way to confront me and threaten to let his dogs loose on me and to shoot me. This is South Hill, Washington. There was no need to threaten my life as I was legally delivering food. I was passing by today visiting family. The family that he threatened to take me away from because he wanted to play warrior. I called the police on him and that was that. Hopefully he continues to not overstep basic human decency. What a sad way to look at the world so suspiciously. Just was reminded of that unpleasant experience and I've told others to never spend their money there. Note: If you want to play warrior, join the military. Don't project your weirdness onto innocent people legally doing their job and risk losing your business over some weirdo protector fantasy.

Very knowledgeable! We had our dog anxious pup walking alongside another dog the first day. Still in training, but we have made big strides in short amount of time.

Garrett has been nothing short of amazing. Every training session builds off the last and always introduces something new to work on. We knew within the first minute of our very first session that his behavioral program was the real deal. He truly is a dog whisperer. The walk, the posture, the timing, the movements. Things you would never realize are forms of communication until he breaks it down. It completely changed how we understand and interact with our dog. We have not used treats at all during training. Treats are now just that, treats, not a crutch. From the moment we brought home our Rottweiler puppy, we enrolled in his puppy training program and it has been outstanding. We trained at his facility, in public settings like Home Depot, and in our own home. The variety and real world application made a huge difference. Great person. Great sessions. Real, noticeable improvements every single week. Highly recommend Garrett to anyone serious about training their dog the right way.

Garrett Stevens is truly one-of-a-kind when it comes to dog training. His unorthodox style may not be what you’d expect, but that’s exactly what makes him so effective. Our Great Pyrenees was stubborn, independent, and we honestly weren’t sure if we’d ever get through to him. Garrett changed everything. Instead of relying on cookie-cutter methods, Garrett took the time to really understand our dog’s personality and gave us tools that actually worked. His approach is calm, intuitive, and based on building trust and respect—not just obedience. The difference has been night and day. Because of Garrett, our Pyr is finally on the right path to success. Walks are no longer a battle, our home is more peaceful, and most importantly, our dog is happier and more confident. If you’re looking for a trainer who gets results, thinks outside the box, and truly cares about both the dog and the owner, Garrett Stevens at Alpha and Omega Dog Training is the best there is.

5/5

After just two sessions, we are seeing a remarkable change in our lives. More peace and calm! Our pup is 15 mo. old, so we have accumulated bad habits. But Garrett is a true "dog whisperer" - patient and inspiring. We WILL get there!
