FirstBarkSteve, owner of Pack Leader, is so personable to your needs, obstacles and pets training. He is very thorough in communication, professional, and expert in his field. I'm so grateful for the sessions we had with Steve. Our dogs responded quickly to the training and are already seeing excellent results. We highly recommend him!

We just got our first session and Steve is very patient (with the owner and owner’s kids 😂😆) and knowledgeable. We were doing many things wrong 😅😅😅We also started some of the skills and our puppy seems to respond well! In addition, Steve is very responsive to text/calls, and very flexible too!
Steve came to my home. Explain things in a way that made sense to me. He worked with me and my dog lvar. I now see a happy ending in sight. I'm excited about our 2 weeks. Follow up, will update ...

I hired The Pack Leader to help my 14 year old daughter learn how to work with her 2 year old Border Collie that we just welcomed into our home. We just ended our first session and we are all feeling (dog included) a sense of peace and confidence. We now have direction and looking forward to a wonderful future as a family! My daughter felt comfortable and he answered all of her questions. Highly recommend!
Fantastic trainer! Our first session was an absolute eye opener. Steve gave us a lot to work with and work on with our 5 month old puppies. We will definitely work with him again and again. Highly recommend!
