Ohio State K-9 College

Our 8 week old German Shepard/Husky mix is a hard working dog that is full of energy and excitement. Many critics online said that this dog would need training that involved shock or choker collars but not with the Master Trainer Joe HAND and VOCAL command style. At the start of September we took our puppy to Joe for her first training class, but what made our experience so special was we did the whole training over Skype! I've never seen anything like this and i fully expected this to not work since the dog feels like I'm the fun and not the serious trainer. After maybe 5-10 mins into the session I could have the dog perfectly sitting and staying consistently on command with just vocal Commands. Every new training excessive Joe gave us multiple ways to train the dog a trick/command (cage training, housebreaking, stairs, potty). What we loved most about this training is Joe's professionalism and high energy that made training FUN. Now many think that training can't be fun for you or the dog but Joe makes it FUN. We would highly recommend Joe and the Ohio State K9 College to anyone looking to train their dog, along with themselves. If you buy into Joe and his training program, you WILL get the results you are looking for.

Our Dutch Shepherd is a high energy ,working dog that not many people would be able to train, especially without the shock or choker collars. We researched multiple trainers and no one compared to Joe and his training style. After a few weeks now, with Joe, our puppy is improving dramatically from week to week. Joe incorporates a lot of fun and play into each training session. Our Dutch Shepherd does not even realize she is being trained because of the fun she has. We would highly recommend Joe and the Ohio State K9 College to anyone looking to train their dog, along with themselves. If you buy into Joe and his training program, you WILL get the results you are looking for.

This is the second course I purchased with Joey-one when I lived in Ohio 14 years ago(my Eskie proudly wears the Best Dog Ever collar) which I trained in person with Joey with the total control course and my Eskie still remembers all commands that I could remember and two- now with my new Eskie 12 weeks old today via Skype. Benefits of each, you get one on one training with Joey! In person your dog learns super fast as Joey is clearly dominant and sets the tone Correctly the first time but benefits to Skype are you do your training in your own home where Joey sees and corrects problem behaviors that occur in the home. I am living out of state now. You also get written notes after each class that guide you to remember his instructions during class! All commands are taught humanely with voice control and different leash holds which allows your dog to learn. Joey observes how both dog and owner interact and tailors each class to meet the needs of his students! Joey’s training method also places your dog’s safety first both indoor and outdoors. Worth every penny as Joey can fix any problem that may arise. I did get a GREAT dog with my first Eskie. I have no doubt after we complete this next course I will have a second Best Dog Ever Eskie.

My problem child is one hundred and twenty pounds of extreme stubborn. We expected some difficulty with training given his breed mix ( Newfoundland, Great Pyrenees, St. Bernard) But he surpassed our expectations. We struggled for three years with ignoring commands, aggression towards strangers, he also ate the siding off of my house when he got in trouble for getting into the garbage. We needed help. In steps Joey, who thirteen years earlier, helped us train our Bouvier des Flanders. She was awful, wouldn’t totally house train, ignored commands, and then bit someone. Joey totally turned her around and she became a wonderful dog to live with. So, now I have an even bigger problem. But, in just a couple of months of training over Skype, my big guy has turned around also. He has done so well in this program and thanks to Joeys guidance. He knows his commands AND listens. I can walk him again, without worrying about all the other people we encounter. We have had no further incidents of eating the house. These things are huge. I’m so thankful. I would highly recommend Joey and this program to anyone who is serious about training.

I have never had a trainer with such passion and enthusiasm for teaching both the dog And the human. Joey's instruction is crystal clear and precise. Joeys Customer Service for his clients is OUTSTANDING! He spends Extra time in lessons and Hours of time writing out my homework notes. I have Never heard of any other training facility doing this. It makes All The Difference In The World to have these notes to refer to during the week for home practice. When learning new things, it's hard to remember everything. I'd literally be LOST without them. Joey is also the BEST TEACHER I have Ever, in my life, had. He's a Master. It's his passion and he truly CARES and wants my Doberman and I to Succeed. When he teaches my dog and I something new and he sees we are struggling, it is not unusual for Joey to reach out at some point during the week to ask how we are doing. This guy ACTUALLY CARES!! He is genuine and I am so grateful I found the Ohio State K-9 College and that Master Trainer, Joey Byas, accepted my dog and I as students. I am Confidant that under Joeys expert training, my Dobe and I are ,no doubt, going to win our OTCH in record time...and have FUN along the way : ) Thank you so much, Joey, and also for that fabulous lesson you threw in today for my daughter!! You're the BEST ~
