Amazing experience with Keaton and Precision Dog Training! We sent our 1 year old dog, Duke, to work on some typical but exhausting puppy challenges including leash pulling, chasing, reactivity, mouthing and bursts of excessive energy. Duke absolutely loved Keaton and the other trainers he worked with. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy during his stay. We loved getting the regular video and email updates on his progress! What really set this experience apart was how Keaton worked with our whole family. He made sure we all had the skills and tools needed to continue Duke's success at home. Duke still has his wonderful, playful personality and is now well-behaved, responsive to commands, and truly a great companion for the family. Thank you, Keaton and the Precision team!

Madi has been fantastic with our 10 month old mini bernedoodle! We brought her home after 3 weeks and were pleasantly surprised at the progress she's made. We are still working on a few things adjusting at home, as expected. We appreciate the responsiveness and follow- up. Madi has been a Godsend and we would highly recommend her and Precision.

Bentley, our 2yr old St. Bernard just completed the three-week board and train session. We immediately saw marked improvement in his behavior. He no longer pulls hard on walks, jumps at other dogs, or barks at them on the leash. Vast improvement in greeting other people and interactions with other dogs. He has responded well to our continued training. We were pleased with his trainer Keaton. He kept us up to date on Bentley's progress throughout the training. Out interactions with Keaton and the staff have been excellent. Our only regret is not doing this 18 months ago. I am very happy to support at fellow veteran and his business.

I have had nothing but a great experience at precision dog training. I came in with a pretty reactive dog, on and off the leash, and was very nervous. Both Ethan and Keaton were very reassuring and patient with not just me, but my dog as well! We signed up for the controlled aggression private training program, and it has made all the difference. Smokey initially was very scared of everyone, including Keaton, refused to take food from him, or even walk on the leash if he was holding it. Over time, they have developed a really great relationship. Smokey became excited to go there, extremely comfortable with Keaton, and trusts him completely. The results we have seen from these sessions has been incredible! Smokey has mastered some basic commands, including place, which has been life changing. Additionally, he has learned “heel” when walking, rarely pulls, and is always at my side. On top of all of that, Smokey’s reactivity has significantly reduced. Leash reactivity is completely gone. We can walk by just about anyone or any dog, and have zero reactions. It truly has relieved so much stress and made just about every aspect easier. Keaton has been a wonderful communicator, very personable, and overall done incredible things for Smokey! He has also been extremely accommodating and flexible, working around both our busy schedules and always finding the time to get us in. We are very appreciative of this program and especially Keaton, and would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone!

Beans went to “school” as an unruly teenager who lunged at strangers, other dogs, bicycles and loud large vehicles. He didn’t mind dogs smaller than him but had issues with dogs bigger than him. He went to the three week board and train. He’s been home almost a week and is much calmer, goes to place when directed, heels pretty well and we’ve encountered bicycles on the trail and he hasn’t lunged at them! He’s greeted people pretty well. We’ve still got work to do on allowing his feet to be touched but we’re working on that slowly. Madi did an excellent job of keeping me posted on his progress and explained marker words and the use of the e-collar during our interactive session. I’m so very happy with his progress and I know Beans is more comfortable and less stressed on our walks. I highly recommend Precision Dog Training for anyone who needs help with a reactive dog.
