About The Dog Boss LLC

Dog training is so much more than training the dog! Each dog is an individual and so is each person which means that we all learn and communicate differently. The challenge as a dog trainer is to transfer my knowledge, skills and success to you and your canine companion in a way that makes sense to both of you. Sure, I know a lot about dogs and their behavior as do many others. However, all of that knowledge is useless if I fail to communicate it properly to those needing guidance. My goal is to teach the people how to teach the dog. People are the most important factor in a dog's ongoing positive or negative behavior. So, let's communicate and start training!

Just completed 2 training sessions with Ed at Dog Boss and I couldn’t be happier with his approach, guidance and results! The questionnaire was very detailed, he came prepared and was focused on making the training work for our house, our dog and our specific concerns. I am so glad I had him come early on with our newly adopted dog, he tweaked a few things we were doing and we immediately saw the positive results. Don’t hesitate, call Dog Boss!

ED was extremely helpful in his training of our maltipoo who was biting at mom. She learned corrective behavior plus additional techniques. Of course we learned alot.

Ed came to meet our playful goldendoodle Teddy. Teddy is smart and sweet but he has all the puppy tendencies; barking, chewing, digging, taking food from our toddlers. Ed was amazing. He taught us all of the commands and tools we needed to help Teddy learn to be the perfect addition to our family We are truly grateful for Ed’s help and highly recommend The Dog Boss to anyone looking to help support their dog’s growth and development. Thanks Ed!

The Dog Boss (Ed) is very professional, listened to our needs and thoroughly evaluated both dogs so we could implement his training! Our dogs are on there way to being obedient fur babies with only 2 sessions! It’s also nice to know that he is only a phone call away if we have any issues! Thank you Ed for teaching us how to teach Henry & Rico! -Nicole & Michael

As new puppy parents we didn’t know the first thing about training our new pup. We called Ed the dog boss, explained all of our issues and concerns and he worked out a plan for us when he came to visit. The home visits were great, he gave us great tips for leash training, jumping issues and touched on many of our other concerns. After the first visit we saw an immediate change in our puppy and in the way we handled behavioral issues. We love that Ed’s available to us by phone with any other issues that may pop up. Thanks Ed for giving us a good foundation to continuing working with our new buddy! Enzo says thanks too!
