I was able to get my 2 year old crazy Mal/Dutch Shepherd in within 2 weeks of calling. This training was long overdue and Larry didn’t hesitate to step up the th challenge that Tango was! After 8 weeks of training it’s like I have a new dog, and a far better understanding of not only what to do, but what he requires as a working dog. I can’t thank you enough!!

Larry is an amazing, highly skilled trainer that i wish I had met years ago. He is more than a trainer, he is an educator and coach who empowers his clients to improve the lives of thier dogs. He helped me to problem solve a young dog who has been afraid of the world. With Larry's help and guidance, I was able to understand how I was contributing to my dog's anxiety. He modeled correct ways of handling my dog and provided effective strategies to help him be more comfortable in his own skin. If you have been looking for help, look no further. Thank-you Larry.
Larry is a great trainer who was really worth every penny. He trained our two dogs who were a handful and successfully fixed some negative training techniques from other trainers.
Larry was great to train with. He is very knowledgeable and has loads of experience with training several different dog breeds. My dog did not go through competition training but from talking to him he also has loads of experience with competition dogs. Id recommend going to Larry.
Larry is a great trainer, we are 2 weeks into training with a 3 month old english setter. She is very energetic and smart. It's amazing what 2 weeks can do. Larry gives you all the tools to be a confident dog owner. Just remember you get what you put into training. Training goes beyond the time spent with Larry and if you follow through I believe you'll be very happy with the results.
