Mr. Knox himself came to my home twice to see my anxious pup in his space and to brainstorm how to help him be more calm around my new nephew. I came away with a better understanding of my dog and what he needs to thrive, and Mr. Knox was awesome—asking really specific questions about my goals and giving me clear steps to practice. My dog has gotten much more comfortable with my nephew after the work we’ve done together, thanks to Knox Canine Training.

We trained our dog in a small diverse group of dogs. The instruction was easy to follow,
and the trainers were excellent in giving us common sense approaches to training our Rottweiler.

Simply amazing. After a year with an adopted 4 year old Bernese Mountain Dog with a lot of issues, we were still struggling a lot to make much headway with her training. We had to board the BMD while on vacation and tried a 'board and train' facility at a different dog trainer...after a month our dog showed very minimal difference. We decided to try with Knox and after a single, hour long session, the difference is absolutely amazing. We learned a lot and have made huge progress. We will absolutely be continuing our training with Knox. Thank you!!!
