1000% recommend Jeff at The Dog College. Super knowledgeable dog whisperer. My dog came home a more confident and obedient dog. Before training he would bark a lot when he wanted something and was hard to take on walks because he was so excited and wanted to see and play with everything. That has all changed in just 3 weeks and now he’s much easier to manage now. Also learning place has improved our household substantially because now we can keep him calm and contained as before he would run wild when the front door would open or when I was trying to get something done around the house. I am very pleased with the results and couldn’t be happier with my dog! Thanks so much for everything Jeff and Jenny!! 🐾❤️

We can’t say enough good things about the training our dog received from Jeff and Jenny at The Dog College! The MAIN thing is that our two year old dog is much calmer!! He now relaxes in our home and is such a joy to be around. He follows commands when we take him out and knows when he is free to greet new people. He doesn’t pull on the leash when we take him to places that he loves and he sits even when there are other dogs around. Jeff and Jenny are truly passionate about their training and you can tell that it is done with love and care. I would send my dog to The Dog College 1000x!

10/10 experience with Jeff and Jenny!! Our dachshund/poodle puppy Ollie was struggling with confidence, obedience, and potty training. With a baby on the way we wanted to be sure he would be well-trained with a good mindset before baby’s arrival. He spent 3 weeks at The Dog College and came back as a whole new dog. He’s still the same funny, sweet, playful boy but he is so well behaved, confident, and trained. Jeff equipped us with the tools we need to continue training and showed us everything we need - he even made a video for us to reference. We couldn’t be happier!

Our walks are not filled with worry anymore. Jeff is a very talented dog trainer who we are grateful we had the opportunity to work with. Although we did not meet Jeff’s wife, she provided updates on the training process and assists with training.

We had a wonderful experience with Jeff and his 3-week board and train program for our 9-month-old golden retriever, Archie. Before training, Archie had a hard time with leash pulling, unreliable recall, and getting overly excited around guests, other dogs, and strangers. Jeff truly transformed his behavior. Archie’s heeling and recall have improved significantly, and he’s now much more responsive to us—even in distracting environments. It’s made a noticeable difference in our everyday life. Jeff’s communication throughout the program was excellent. He provided consistent, informative updates that gave us peace of mind while Archie was away. When we picked him up, it was clear that Archie had formed a strong bond with Jeff, which speaks volumes about the care he received. Jeff also spent about two hours with us going through everything we needed to know so we could confidently continue Archie’s training at home. We would absolutely recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a dog trainer and will definitely plan to work with him again for any future dogs!
