HD Dog Training changed our lives!!! We got Moody as a rescue pup when he was 2 years old. For the last 4 years, he has demonstrated severe separation anxiety to the extent that we could hardly leave the house without him trying to block the door or nip at us. Finding sitters who were willing to watch Moody entailed making sure the sitter was comfortable to never leave Moody by himself for their own safety. When we found Rob, we had all but given up hope that Moody (now 6 years old) could change. Moody was originally signed up for the 4-week board and train program and on week 3 it became clear to Rob that Moody would need an additional 2 weeks. Rob kept Moody for 2 extra weeks--free of charge--to ensure that Moody would be sufficiently trained. Moody came back to us completely transformed! He responds dutifully to commands like "heel," "come," "touch," "sit," and a number of others! Most importantly, he now responds every time when we say "CRATE!!!" This has absolutely changed our lives and has made our relationship with Moody a much closer and more regulated one because there is so much more trust and less conflict between us now. We will be forever grateful to HD Dog Training for returning Moody to us as a happier, more regulated dog. When we went to pick Moody up, Rob made sure we were well-trained on how to continue Moody's training at home and we are looking forward to 4 follow-up sessions to continue to shape our training skills. HD Dog Training's slogan is "Changing Dogs One Human at a Time." We have been forever changed and would recommend them to ANYONE in need of dog training or boarding services.

We got our puppy Nala when she was about 8 weeks old. By the time she was 9 months she was a very reactive dog that frightened easily and showed some aggression. We felt hopeless and needed more help than just the basic training we had done ourselves with her. HD Dog training was recommended to us so we decided to check them out. We met Rob and right away we knew he could help us. His passion and dedication for dog training gave us hope. After her board and train with Rob we could see a huge difference. She is well behaved, listens to commands and is just overall a better dog. You will definitely see results when working with HD Dog Training and I highly recommend them.

Brought my rottweiler puppy to Rob for a board and train. She was showing signs of fear and aggression, and needed some more training. After 1 month we got her back and she was a changed dog. She was super happy, and well on her way to becoming a great dog. Rob is amazing and we are super grateful we found him.

Our girl, Ledi, found us back in June. My husband and I both grew up around dogs that were not trained and we wanted to be sure that Ledi got the support she needed. Within a couple weeks of getting her, Ledi had already started having accidents (often on purpose), biting, jumping, and we really didn't know how to handle the behaviors in a consistent and loving way. With Rob's help, Ledi is a completely different dog. She grasped her training super fast! We can do off leash walks, let her go in the backyard without any fear of her getting into trouble. Without having really worked on it directly, the spite poop/pee accidents have stopped. It's nice not having to buy all those puppy pads! We as dog owners and as a family are in such a better place thanks to Rob and HD Dog Training!

HD Dog Training is superb. We rescued our husky, Ledi, in June. She had a sweet heart, but was unruly, and had a tendency to jump and nip. She would bolt from us when we opened our front door and we were terrified of her running away or getting hit by a car. She was literally driving us crazy and really frustrating my wife and I. Within a few weeks of training with Rob, she was a completely different dog. Her jumping and nipping became almost non-existent, and now I can call her from 100 yards away and she bolts to me as quickly as possible. She is now beloved by my family and friends and is good around kids and babies. Believe me, whatever your dog is doing, it's not worth all the repercussions - the anger you feel toward your dog, the arguments with other members of your family, the ruined moments created by a dog who is acting out. Ledi is now an adored member of our family and when we don't bring her to events, people are disappointed! Thank you Rob for helping us create a happy and loving relationship with our dog! My wife and I, and Ledi, thank you!
