Our trainer Damon was phenomenal! He explained my dog's psychology and thought process to me, before we even began the first training session, which helped me to understand more clearly. He was extremely knowledgeable, was very efficient, produced fast results, and used very humane methods such as a reward system. No punishment was ever involved! I only had to use him for a handful of training sessions because the cornerstone foundation training he laid was so strong, it actually enabled me to further train my dog on my own using the same principles he instilled. I do not know of anyone who has more experience training golden doodles in Tennessee than Damon. While our trainer was too humble to boast, I have subsequently heard via other professionals in the canine community, that our trainer has been personally contracted by numerous law enforcement agencies, country music stars, and professional athletes in the past, for their training needs. Well worth the money!!!

I had first started working with Damon shortly after adopting my pit bull Ruby. She needed to learn some manners and how to properly walk on a leash. We also worked with my older pit Gerty and soon realized she was the one who needed better manners. She is 11 years old and very reactive to other dogs, bikes, motorcycles and lawnmowers. Damon was great for not only teaching me how to correct unwanted behavior but always reminding me how it’s being perceived from a dogs point of view. That was very important in learning to communicate with my dogs. It has helped me become the Alpha in my household and my 5 year old daughter can Walk Ruby with ease. Within a few week of practice I could place both of my dogs in a down position on the curb, walk across the street and they would wait for me to come back. I’m amazed at far they have come and how well behaved my dogs are. Damon has even helped me beyond our training sessions. One day, out of the blue, A fight breaks out and although I broke it up and no one was hurt, I absolutely can not have that behavior in my house. Well of course, I text Damon and he immediately called me back. He guided me on what to do and how to handle the situation and it’s been a year and a half since that happened and it hasn’t happened since. Please do yourself a big favor and invest in your dogs training . It is so worth it . Damon is an amazing Trainer and has made a huge difference in our lives. I live in Nashville but will still continue to work with Damon with all of my future rescue dogs. Damon Thank you so very much!
