We have a house full of stubborn dogs. We love the tools that John and Zoe have given us to make our situation a better one. They have worked with both of our bulldogs and wow what a difference. If you are considering using them I highly recommend you do. The training program and tips they give are top notch! Highly recommend.

John has been incredibly helpful in helping me enjoy my puppy more! We have an incredibly energetic german wirehair puppy and John is very patient with him (and with my husband and I). After just the first session we had already gained so much knowledge and our pup was responding so much better already. Now as we've continued through the sessions things just keep getting better and we've learned so much! John has helped us with our dog's leash walking, jumping, counter surfing, staying in place when people enter the door, releasing things he steals from us, e collar training, and more!

I have to give a huge shoutout to John Lightfoot and Misfits Dog Training! Several months ago I was in needed a dog trainer because we realized that our dog brewer needed quite a lot of training before having a newborn in the house. He was reactive to other dogs, people and didn’t walk well on a leash (along with other things) John completely trained our dog to the point where people will now come up to us and comment on how good he is! We will definitely be using them whenever we choose to get our next dog. Thanks!!!
Amazing training and experience! Tons of helpful information, and Atlas is a whole lot better off with the training provided! Will recommend in the future!!
