About Phil's Dog Training

Serving Central Connecticut Dog training is most effective when it takes place in your home. This is where your dog lives and therefore where most of the behavior issues take place. When I come to your home I can train your dog in a place where he feels comfortable and is not distracted by other dogs. If your puppy or adult dog is having any kind of behavioral issue such as jumping, excessive barking, pulling on walks, eating off the counter, etc. please give me call. Most behavior issues can be addressed with the right correction at the right time. Depending on how much time and effort you put in to it, most dogs learn quickly.

Phil came to our home to work with our 15week old pit/mix rescue. From the moment he walked in the door, he was teaching us the right way to train. He showed us how to teach the basic commands of “ sit, down, stay, leave it, come” He was very patient with our dog ( and us too!). His training technique is very clear. In just one session our dog was learning to obey the commands. Phil has given us the guidance to now help our puppy master those commands, and will be there if needed to help answer any further questions or provide more sessions. I am so glad we found Phil!!!! If you’re looking for a great trainer, look no further. Phil is who you want!

The experience we had with Phil was incredible! He is an extremely knowledgeable trainer who has far exceeded expectations. Phil helps with not only commands but also understanding and correcting behavioral issues as well. He takes the time to see what is most needed for your pet and tailors the training to meet those needs. He is extremely pleasant with both owner and pet and explains the intent behind each command or motion, allowing you to grasp the true nature of the lesson. Did you need help understanding something? No problem! Phil is enthusiastic about his job and his pets, and it is clear how that enthusiasm and love translate into his profession. He has no issues repeating parts of the lesson or revisiting motions and commands, so you can solidify his teaching. Phil is outstanding, and I highly recommend seeking out his help for your pet training needs.

Phil took our two dogs from completely out of control animals to perfectly behaved angels. His knowledge and expertise exceeded our expectations. He is straightforward and to the point in teaching you how to fix the problems you may be facing with your dogs. His pricing was fair and he accurately estimated how many sessions would be necessary for our dogs. We highly recommend Phil’s Dog Training services!

Excellent training experience! We had an hour-long class with Phil. He went over the basic commands to teach a dog and how to correct behavior. Calmness and consistency are key. I would absolutely recommend his training to anyone with a new dog!
