We have had a great experience with Good Dog Boston. Jeff has done an amazing job with our dog (and us as the owners). Having private classes is very convenient for our schedule and by having the classes at home, our children are able to participate and learn from the training sessions as well.

Toffee has been doing incredibly well since training began — so glad we are working with Good Dog Boston! Jeff is wonderful! It is great to work with him. He treats Toffee as his own dog and goes above and beyond to help me train my dog.

Good Dog Boston's private classes were a great experience! They took the time to get to know my dog and did an awesome job at making him feel comfortable and receptive to learning. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is struggling to communicate with their dog.

Working with Jeff was the best decision I ever made for my 10 month old rescue, Ava. Ava had a lot of anxiety issues that resulted in leash pulling and attempting to eat basically everything on walks (including potentially harmful things). She was not able to sit for more than a few seconds at a time, generally had her tail tucked and/or would shake in most environments. Jeff took the time to get to know Ava and immediately identified her biggest needs/issues. He completely customized every session and adjusted course throughout the program as we learned more about Ava, and as I had questions, feedback, and observations of what was working well for her and what wasn’t. Jeff was knowledgeable, methodical, and professional about introducing new techniques and options to find what would work best for Ava, while building her confidence in adjusting to city life. He also had the patience and skill in training me and building my own confidence in my abilities to continue Ava’s training, care, and development after the program. Jeff always has the dog’s best interest at heart and genuinely cares and is passionate about the work he does. Ava and I can now go on many more walks, enjoy them, and I no longer fear every second of the walk that she will snatch up something harmful from the ground. Ava is so much less fearful after her training and can now start to really enjoy just being a dog. 100% would recommend Jeff to anyone looking to provide the best life for their dog through training.

Jeff has done an amazing job training Romeo ! As a very active and big Labrador puppy, Romeo was very difficult to handle on walks and around the house. After just a few sessions with Jeff, were were able to turn that all around. Thank you Jeff for your dedication and kindness !
