The Dog Behaviorist NYC

We are so grateful for all Dominik has done for our family. When Coco joined our family we had no clue what we were in for. We never had a pet and never even cared for someone else’s puppy. We had no clue what we were doing until Dominik came to our home 3 days after her arrival. After just a few minutes with him we knew we were in the right hands. Dominik trained US how to train Coco. Coco quickly learned how to be comfortable in her crate (which helped immensely with potty training), where her safe place was when outside her crate, and basic commands. With Dominik’s guidance, we quickly mastered walking nicely on a leash and improved recall. He helped cut out naughty habits like nipping and chewing. He is still always available by text or phone call and answers all our questions readily. We highly recommend Dominik!

Book Dominik immediately! I cannot say enough incredible things about Dominik. I reached out to him based on a friend’s referral and it was the best decision we could have made for our fearful 6-year-old rescue dog. Our dog, Ruth, went from being scared, lunging and growling at other dogs to actively wanting to socialize with them. We booked Dominik for 3 sessions and just after the first session, there was vast improvement with Ruth. I nearly cried when I walked her. She stayed by my side and didn’t even look at other dogs. My partner and I thought we’d always have a fearful, dog hating pup that was aggressive. But that not the case thanks to Dominik and his experienced behaviorist skills. On a personal level, we really like Dominik! He’s super warm, safe to work with during COVID and patiently listened to all of our concerns. We also had lots of laughs during our training sessions. Thank you Dominik!!! We’ll always be so thankful to you and how you’ve changed ours and Ruth’s life for the best ❤️❤️❤️

Dominik is fabulous. We started working with him when our Duck Tolling Retriever was about a year old. We had been struggling with her walking/leash anxiety - she is a stubborn thing and would refuse to walk long distances, especially around loud noises and when other dogs were approaching us. Living in New York City, we tried tirelessly to train her out of this, but after a year of trying, we knew something had to change. Dominik arrived and within the first 30 minutes of our evaluation - yes, you saw that right, 30 minutes - he had our puppy walking in a heel and passing dogs with no problem. Since then, her confidence has completely transformed - we are now able to take her on long walks in the city without her anxiety getting the best of her. Dominik is knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and always checking in . Would highly, highly recommend.
