Our puppy spent 10 days with Jeff, and she came home knowing the basic commands and had a good foundation for more advanced training. What makes him different is that he also focuses on teaching us, the dog owners, the proper ways to keep her training going to assure continued success. He has come to our house a few times since the 10 day program to monitor our dog’s progress, answer our questions, and guide us on our techniques. Jeff is a real professional, and the results he achieved with our puppy are well worth the cost of the training. If you’re searching for a good dog trainer, no need to keep looking - he’s the one. We highly recommend him!

Jeff is truly a dog whisperer - his training focuses mainly on the dog owner and he explains the best way to communicate and build trust with your dog in a way that is easy to understand and incredibly affective. Jeff worked with me and my dog Ruby when she was a puppy and the results have been amazing. If you are looking for a dog trainer, Jeff is your guy. And totally reasonable in terms of cost. 5 stars!!

Jeff has been an incredible asset to our family and German Sheppard Wolfie! We did the basic puppy training and it was a true game changer with our German Sheppard. We also use Jeff for boarding when we are away and it’s like wolf stays with family! We could not be happier with him and the entire team.

Jeff came to Ohio to train our newly rescued 8 month old American Pitbull (Ghost). The amount of progress he made with Ghost in 2 days was completely insane, and the thing I loved about Jeff is that he walks you through every single step and the reasoning behind each one. His love of training dogs definitely shows in his work. 10/10 would recommend Jeff to anyone.

Jeff exceeded our expectations! He started training our Bernedoodle @ 6months, she is now 1 yr 10months and walks off leash, is extremely responsive and listens quickly. Thank you Jeff we are very grateful.
