If you've ever owned a husky, you'll understand why finding the right trainer is key! Working with Eric has been fantastic from day one. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with and really understands how they think. He has a talent for explaining things in a way that actually makes sense. He doesn't just tell you what to do, he explains why you're doing it, which helped me feel much more confident and consistent with training. As a husky owner, I can also say he has the patience of a saint. 😆 He's always responsive and quick to answer questions, no matter how random or panicked my texts have been. It's obvious that he cares about both the dogs and their owners, and that combination is what makes him such an outstanding trainer. I couldn't recommend him more highly. 🐾

I just had to come back on here and add to my initial review below. I cannot recommend The Steadfast Canine strongly enough!! Eric is an amazing trainer, who genuinely cares about his clients, their dogs and everything g that goes with it. He is absolutely amazing and the most kind man. He completely understands dogs on their level! It truly amazing watching him work, and his patience is unbelievable (more with us than Dex!) he listens to our needs and explains things in way we can understand it. Eric I just want to say thank you!! We are a few weeks into training in our home with Eric. He is absolutely amazing, we have learned so much, made significant leaps in our progress and are beyond overjoyed at the time we have had. Cannot wait to continue our journey. Eric is a fountain of knowledge, his ability to interpret the dogs body language is amazing, and he takes the time to explain things in a way that make complete sense. I would recommend Eric to anyone looking to create a better more meaningful bond with their dog.

We recently boarded our two dogs with The Steadfast Canine and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Our boys came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they were loved like family while we were away. Eric kept us updated with thoughtful messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’ll definitely be booking with them again for any future boarding needs!
