I reached out to John as a first time dog owner after adopting a reactive dog. When I first contacted him about training, I felt completely overwhelmed. I didn’t fully understand my dog’s behavior, and I honestly just didn’t know what to do. John not only worked with my dog to improve her reactions and build her confidence, but he worked with me too. He taught me how to read her body language, understand why she reacts, and what she needs from me in those moments. Through these sessions, I’ve learned so much! We’ve been able to work through reactions and build her confidence, and because of the progress we’ve made, she can now handle situations and outings that used to be much harder for her. I’m incredibly grateful for John’s patience, support, and knowledge. The progress we’ve made wouldn’t have been possible without him, and I truly can’t recommend him enough!!!

I recently adopted a new dog, Wendy, at the end of October. She is the sweetest dog, but very nervous/anxious with new people so I decided to hire a dog trainer to help with techniques to build her confidence. I found John the Dog Clicker through a google search and decided to try him out based on him being local as well as his positive reviews. And while it’s still going to take time for Wendy to trust and feel comfortable around other people, John really helped with showing me ways to use treats to help train her and how to properly introduce her to humans. We even did a couple of training sessions with his dog since Wendy LOVES other dogs! John has a calming presence and understands dog body language - by the 5th session Wendy was finally taking treats out of his hand! I would highly recommend John the Dog Clicker!

John is fantastic at his craft. A true dog whisperer, he was able to make great strides with my pup, an anxious rescue. John was patient and kind, all the while commanding attention and sharing instruction that has continued to help us make progress to this day. I’d highly recommend and look forward to working with John in the future.

John was great with our new puppy! He was extremely knowledgeable, working with us on specific areas of concern, while making it enjoyable for our dog. His calm and professional demeanor and teaching methods taught both our new dog and us tons of stuff! Highly recommend, we will be retuning for further training for our dog!

We reached out to John for help with our new puppy and had a great experience. It was so awesome to have training in our home which allowed for all family members to get actively involved. Scheduling was easy and our puppy (and family members) really enjoyed working with John. Thank you again!
