FirstBarkI’ve adopted and raised a few dogs and each have had their training challenges, but I was always able to figure them out. However, my newest baby had a stubborn streak I struggled to train. Ken and Lisa customized my sessions to fit what I needed to train my newest buddy to stay safe and happy!

Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
I have a two year old adopted yorkie. She stays inside 90% of the time. Sometimes she is great at using pee pads other times she goes where ever she wants. This is not acceptable. I have put her in a pen and that doesn't last either. Can you help?
Just give us a call, and we will be happy to talk you through it over the phone :-) Ken and Lisa 913-909-9609

I have a 2 yrs old rescue boxer and I have ptsd from the military. I wanted to find out cost, how many weeks and time of classes? Thank you in advance.
I think we paid about $750 period classes lasted about an hour each time and there was no limit as to how many we could have depending on how the dogs did. It was a wonderful service we are still benefiting from what we learned as well as what the dogs learned hope it works out for you

Gentle Dog Training is awesome, the first thing I was looking for was a trainer that has a gentle but firm way of teaching not just Bailey my German Shepherd puppy.Not to pull my arm off..lol Bailey had gotten to the point that we stop going for walks, she pulled so bad that I couldn’t walk my beautiful girl... On top of that she barked at everyone and everything... People were afraid of her and that made me very sad. she has a great loving Personality... If you have a dog that need some training no matter how little or hard Ken and Lisa are the answer to your problem, your dog will thank you. Thanks, Christine Hope
Their great. Very knowledgeable and their solutions work! Got a dog from the pound & through training I was able to reform him. #whistlemissle lol
Really like their overriding philosophy of calm owners, calm dogs. They teach ways to get your dog to do as you want using methods that don't raise the energy. Plus they do a lot of work helping rescue dogs. Great people.

Lifesavers! As an experienced dog owner and experienced GSD owner, I thought I could handle my new rescue on my own. Boy, was I wrong! I think I had just been lucky with previous dogs. This one was a basket case and was becoming aggressive and unpredictable. He had been at a crowded shelter for a few months and was still young, and he was too much for me to reign in on my own. In just *one* training session, there was a huge, huge improvement in his behavior and temperament. Just the first session! Friends and neighbors even noticed and commented on how much calmer and happier my dog seemed. And now, he's amazing! I have no doubt that Ken and Lisa helped save his life. If I had given up on him, he probably would have bounced around to a lot of different homes due to his behavior, and may have eventually bit someone hard enough to be euthanized. Now, he's calm when greeting people, he ignores other dogs on our walks, doesn't try to chase squirrels, and even takes naps! He's so much happier and well adjusted. I owe that to Ken and Lisa!
