The DogFather showed great training with our Rocky. Rocky came back showing so much improvement. We recommend if your dog is a barker at everything and you want to teach him/her the commands, discipline and still show love. Jose's your man! Highly recommend The DogFather!

I'm blown away by the incredible transformation my dog has undergone in just a couple of weeks with this trainer! The progress is nothing short of remarkable, and it's like having a new furry friend back home. This trainer's expertise, passion, and dedication are truly exceptional. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found him. Highly recommended!

Bringing my 6-month-old Jack Russell puppy, Zoe, to The Dogfather & Co. was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Jose and his team weren’t just professional but they were kind, patient, and truly cared about Zoe’s progress. They helped her learn basic commands like “sit” and “stay,” and even supported us through potty training. What meant the most to me were the updates: Jose sent videos and pictures that showed how happy and confident she was becoming. At pickup, he walked me through everything with so much care and detail. I left feeling not just supported, but truly grateful. I can’t recommend The Dogfather & Co. enough. They helped shape Zoe into the pup she is today.
