Coming here was the best decision we made for our rescue dog. We did the 6 week training and our dog is so better than she was when we first got her. Our dog was quite the challenge, but Adam taught us how to manage and correct her behavior. Simple things like walking on the leash, coming when called, going into her crate and socializing with other dogs use to cause so much anxiety for us but now are pretty easy. He even checked in with us our first week home. Also this is the cleanest dog building I have ever been to, even more so than our vet. He is worth every dime!

We brought our pup, Levi, in for some help. He was having behavioral and medical issues once we had a baby. We didn't know what to do. We even had taken him to vets before and they didn't have any solutions for us. But Adam was PHENOMENAL. He helped Levi with his manners and taught him how to respond to commands properly. He also recommended a vet that was the only one that diagnosed his medical issues. We brought him home yesterday and it was like he was the same dog, but so much more mature and healthy and happy. We are really grateful for the dedication and 1 on 1 time Levi received while at puppy boot camp. 10/10 would recommend.

We highly recommend Obedient Paws! We were desperate as our hound mutt had become difficult to control as he grew from a puppy to an 80 pound adult. He became hard to take on walks because he would bark and lunge at everything that moved. He resource guarded his dog mom and lacked socialization. After 4 weeks of boot camp, Xander is a transformed dog and we are better dog owners. He is a much calmer dog and he listens to us. We don’t fear walking him and in fact we have received multiple compliments on how Xander is so well behaved. Adam, the owner, is the dog whisperer! He is very knowledgeable and passionate about dogs. The on-site training was key for us. Truth be told ... my dog was probably ready to return home after 3 weeks, but we humans needed more training. If you are reading reviews then you & your dog need help. Don’t waste more time looking around and call Obedient Paws! You won’t be disappointed.

Our dog became extremely aggressive to other people and other dogs caused by being under socialized and having low self confidence. After 5 weeks of boot camp, Porter is interacting well with other dogs and gives kisses to everyone that walks through our door. We feared that we would have to keep our dog outside and not take him into public any more before we found Adam. We are now able to let him interact with our friends and family and couldn't be more grateful for the work Adam did.

5/5

He is the best dog trainer we have ever worked with. He is one of the few willing, in Hampton Roads, to train dogs with bite records and/or that are larger than 100 lbs. Put shortly, Adam is a miracle worker.
