Panhandle Dog Trainer

I’ve recommended Devlin to everyone I know. He was so professional and kind when it came to planning Marshall’s (my lab puppy) training and stay. I could tell Marshall was going to be well taken care of and loved as one of their own while he was at training. Marshall had been a wild puppy, but when I got him back, he was so well trained but still the same excited puppy he was when I left him. Now that we’re back home, Marshall has been trying to test me and revert back, but Devlin’s training is still working. He’s offered to drive down to Gainesville to help whenever he’s passing through. This just shows how much he cares about his clients and wants them to succeed as he continues to work with them for as long as possible! Even with the great training, Devlin is still involved and there to help whenever he’s needed. 10/10!

We had a wonderful experience with Devlin and his wife. We had our two 4 year old Dalmatians train with him and have seen incredible improvement with their obedience. Our dogs are very stubborn and seeing them focus on walks, listen on command and work around distractions has been amazing. Post training Devlin has been just a call away. He’s always available to answer my questions & we’ve been able to tackle minor issues immediately after all his support. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for an amazing trainer for their pooches.

Amazing trainer — highly recommend! Devlin has been absolutely incredible to work with. He is professional, kind, and was genuinely invested in helping Sadie become the best version of herself. Sadie has always been a sweet girl, but she definitely had a few habits that needed work. The biggest one being her jumping on everyone out of excitement. After spending time with Devlin, the difference in her behavior is night and day. She listens so much better, has more self-control, and is overall noticeably calmer. I can actually have people walk into my home without Sadie launching herself into their arms! One thing that has made this whole experience even better is the fact that Devlin also trained my parents’ lab, Isla. Isla has become an amazing “big sister” and teacher for Sadie. Watching the two of them work together and seeing Sadie follow Isla’s lead has been such a rewarding part of this process. Their progress as a pair is something we never would’ve had without Devlin’s guidance. What I appreciate most is that Devlin didn’t just “train her,” he helped me understand how to maintain her new habits and reinforce everything she learned. He was patient, answered all my questions, and made the entire experience feel supportive and personalized. If you’re considering sending your dog to him, do it. Seriously. Devlin truly cares about the dogs he works with, and it shows in every part of the process. I’m so grateful for the time and energy he put into Sadie, and I wouldn’t hesitate to send any future dogs to him for training. Thank you, Devlin! Sadie is doing amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with her progress.

Where to begin? Panhandle dog training exceeded all of our expectations and hopes. Devlin returned our energetic reactive Great Dane Maverick to us trained in a way that both my husband and I could use consistantly. Prior to training Maverick reacted to ther dogs, had very selective listening/obediance and I would never have him off leash. Maverick after being trained at Panhandle with Devlin enjoys walks off leash, responds to commands consistantly and is now a true joy to own.
