FirstBarkI went with my dog who was showing signs of aggression at around 7 months. I found Pat and he saved the day! I could now have guests over freely and have my dog play with order dogs as well. And all at a great price. Thanks Pat!!

Pat has been absolutely amazing with our 5-month-old chocolate lab! His patience, knowledge, and calm approach have made such a difference in our puppy’s behavior. We’ve seen incredible progress in just a few sessions — our lab listens better, walks nicely on the leash, and is learning so many good habits. Pat truly cares about the dogs he works with and takes the time to teach us as owners, too. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate dog trainer!
Pat is very knowledgeable, patient, loving and kind in his dog training. His advice is amazing! He has great ideas that are specific to our dog’s situation. We would highly recommend the Dog Man!
Pat did a great great job with our rescued GS. He put our fears to rest over aggressive issues we were worried about. Our Charley is now a loving great dog. Thanks Pat.

I went to get my dog trained to be better with herself and away from me to play with others, and Pat had a lot of patience and helped me understand ways to take care of her more. She's a protective dog, but also a sweet girl when you get to know her. She will sit right by you to let you pet her and give her treats, she still does have work to do but she's been so much better since I took her to The Dog Man.. She listens better, and actually let's me walk her instead of her walking me. She loves kids and getting cuddles from them.
