We had a 5 month old puppy that was super sweet but totally out of control. We had tried different training methods but nothing was working. After just one introductory session with Morris and it was like we had a completely different dog (in a good way!). Morris was a total lifesaver and taught us effective techniques to train our dog and now we feel like we can really enjoy and bond with him as a family that we couldn't before. Our daughter in particular is now just in love with him. Morris was a true lifesaver and I would highly recommend the K9 Class to everyone.

We’ve had a great experience working with Morris. After only 2 private sessions, our 2 year old mini golden doodle has taken on a new personality! She has stopped charging and barking if someone rings the doorbell. With his suggestions and training method, now when visitors enter our house our dog Reese on command sits to greet them instead of wildly throwing her paws up on our visitors. With regard to walks- she has stopped bolting and attempting to chase after squirrels. In general, she seems less anxious and listens well to instructions/ commands. We can’t wait to continue with Morris- what he is doing works!

The K9 Class is the best place to learn how to train your dog. Whether it's a puppy or an old dog they will teach you how to teach your dog and prepare you and give you the confidence to continue what you've learned at class and bring it home with you. The trainers are all incredibly nice and will answer any personal questions you have about your dog.

After the expense of going through 2 trainers with practically no results with our newly received, and scary reactive, 14 month old Irish Terrier, we were referred to Morris by a breeder friend who had used Morris with great results. After text & video analysis Morris agreed to work with us. We worked with texting, phone calls & video because of being so far away. All we can say is we wish we had known about him from the beginning, it would have saved us a lot of money. In a matter of weeks she started to change. It wasn’t easy but Morris was always there with just the right instructions. After about 2 months we started to look for instead of avoid other dogs. She is a player. Our neighbors all think we’re geniuses. If you’re willing to carry out Morris’s instructions you will be successful.

In 2020 I got puppy, but due to the pandemic i wasn't able to socialize him with other dogs, and he developed some aggression and anxiety problems. Morris has been a huge help teaching me how to curb these problems. I can now say my dog gets excited for training classes.
