FirstBarkCannot recommend Marcus and Jeremy and the team here enough!! After using another trainer that had no effect on our nervous/reactive dog we came here, and am so happy we are. It’s a process, there’s no quick fix but they really know what they’re doing and care about your dog! They focus on training the dog and the owner, and manage to make sure each dog is benefitting in a group class.
