I am very happy with Randy's obedience training in a few weeks I can control my large size dogs it's good to know I can go out for dinner with my pitbull Mr Zephyr and the hound is much better behaved he's just very playful and at 70 lb is not a good idea that he jumped on people he doesn't anymore with simple commands so like I said I'm very happy and I highly recommend him

I have a pure bred female German Shepard who was queen. They know how to start with a good getting to know your dog and issues session. Then ground rules and procedures to accomplish results. Worked threw my not doing what I should have one week because of my work schedule. Very understanding and adaptable to any schedule and reluctance but trust me just do what they say and your dog will be forever grateful. You will have a well behaved dog you control that is happy. Also the program has group meeting ( with dogs) afterwards which is perfect to keep up with any dogs needs.

Had a great 9 weeks of training. Meeko is actually able to be off leash and I don’t have to worry about him running off due to a distraction. His interactions with other dogs is actually a lot better than what it was. He checking in even though it still needs shelp me work os so much better than what it was. He listens to commands a lot better now. Even though there is still work to be done Meeko is on the way. And hopefully he is able to be the perfect service dog. When I got Meeko 2 years that was the purpose so I am hopeful that thanks to Randy Meeko will become just that and love doing it. He loves to work and loves to train so I hope that he can become a service dog as I feel he would love it. Now that the 9 weeks are over I take Meeko on field trips when I can and he just loves it.
