Marty is an incredible trainer. Our 13 week old mini aussiedoodle just completed a two week board and train and we already see such vast improvements in her behavior. The best thing about Marty, aside from his obvious love for every dog he trains, is that he teaches dog owners to recognize signals and behaviors from their dogs that help them become better owners and better trainers themselves. He's also very compassionate. A few weeks ago, I had a day where I felt completely overwhelmed as a new puppy owner and felt like I was doing everything wrong. Marty talked me through some of the training issues and questions I had on the phone for about an hour. He was so kind and affirming. By the end of the phone call I felt much better and less likely to dissolve into a puddle of tears. ;) We highly recommend Marty for anyone looking for an excellent dog trainer, and we're looking forward to taking more classes with him in the future!

We loved working with Marty! Our 6 month old German Shepherd, Kenai, spent two weeks with Marty for his board and train program. Our main goal was to work on Kenai being more polite when greeting us and others- not jumping up on people, and working on his off leash recall. Once Kenai got back home, we saw a huge change in manners. He is more calm and does not jump up to great anymore even when excited. Marty gave Kenai a great head start in his recall, and gave us excellent help in continuing to work with our pup. Highly recommend him for his hard work and skill in working with dogs. He really has the knowledge to help you reach your desired goals.

Marty gave our little girl such a great start in life. Her board and train experience was very positive and taught her skills that we continue to help her learn. He took time to teach us how to work with her. It is so worth it to have a well-behaved puppy. Marty was able to socialize her with other dogs and people. When he is working with your dog, his focus is 100% on helping her or him be the best they can be.
