The people at Pine Ranch were very nice. I felt very at ease taking my dog Omega there. They sent links with pictures of him getting exercise outside which I appreciated. I worked the evening shift and when I mentioned picking him up in the morning as opposed to the evening, they adjusted the price accordingly, which I appreciated. I will definitely take Omega back if I need boarding services again. Thanks so much for taking care of Omega.

I highly recommend Desi at Pine Ranch Dog Training for anyone looking to train their furry friend. Desi helped us train our 5-year-old English Bulldog who was quite stubborn and difficult to train before. Desi laid a good foundation of Balanced training which worked really well for us. The e-collar was a great tool for us to have and Desi was very patient in teaching us how to use it effectively. We saw a tremendous improvement in our dog's behavior after boarding for a month with Desi. He was able to stay focused, listen to commands and most importantly, be a well-behaved dog. Desi's professionalism, knowledge and passion for dog training were evident from the beginning and we are grateful for his help in training our dog. If you are looking for a great dog trainer, Pine Ranch Dog Training is definitely the place to go.

We just recently returned from visiting our son and his dog. We are so impressed with the training the dog received from Desi. He took all of the time needed to truly make a difference for this dog. If we lived in Colorado, I would be thrilled to work with Desi. We can not thank him enough!

Hands down the worst experience of our life. DO NOT TRUST YOUR DOG WITH THIS BUSINESS!!! Our dog did a 2 week board and train in the fall of 2020. The day before our dog left for training she went to the vet and the vet said she was in perfect health and at a perfect weight. She lost 12.5 lbs in 2 weeks because Desi starved our dog and admitted to only feeding her 1 handful of food per day when we confronted him about how skinny and sick she was when she returned home. We could see every rib on her body!!! Desi said he didn’t know how old she was or how much to feed her and I pulled out our contract and told him he is lying because I provided all of our dog’s information prior to her board & train stay. Our dog spent a week in the animal hospital after returning home and we incurred thousands of dollars in medical bills because of the malnourishment she suffered. She also came home with mites and lost all the fur on her eyebrows. Desi refused to refund us or pay for medical bills. Our dog is now aggressive and cannot socialize with other dogs, which was not a problem before she attended Desi’s board and train. Our vet has blacklisted this trainer because of the abuse our dog suffered. I read all the reviews in advance of her stay like any good dog owner would. This business is a scam and you should avoid it all costs! I would hate for anyone else’s dog to suffer the abuse our dog did. We are still dealing with the aftermath two years later. You’ve been warned!

Absolutely incredible! My dog was reactive and very anxious. He nipped at a neighbor that frightened him and I knew I needed help. My dog is my best friend and my kids love him to pieces and I just couldn’t do it alone. Desi took him in no problem. Cared for him as his own. I felt very comfortable with my dog in his hands. He never failed to update me when I asked and told me about his progress and sent pictures. I can now walk my dog and not be nervous when I see another dog or person on a walk. I actually look forward to it because seeing how much better behaved he is blows my mind. My 8 yr old actually walked my 100lb GSD for the first time with zero pulling or negative reaction. Desi has been a great source of support and has called to check in and give advice for any other questions I’ve had. This was life changing for me and my kids and will forever be grateful for Pine ranch dogs and refer anyone I know. My neighbor asked for his number for her dog after seeing what a good boy he is. :)
