These guys are AMAZING! If I could leave a million stars for them, I would. The knowledge and connection that James has is incredible. We took my son’s lab for extended puppy training and this dog is changed forever. We will definitely bring him back for additional training as he gets older. James is literally the upstate dog whisperer. His love for these animals and the patience he has with them is unlike anything I have ever seen. If you want superb training for your dog, you just need to call and schedule today. No need to look anywhere else. He is truly the very best.

Thank you Karen! I love these great reviews. But I gotta kick it back to moose. He is pure joy! He’s a blast to work with and easy to love. The Labrador is a top three dog for me. It’s a breed that makes a great family pet and companion animal. I can’t wait to see my buddy again.

I was extremely impressed with how the training went, he did not over complicate it, and made it easy to understand the wording! You can tell they really love what they do, and it shows!

Business response

Shadow was easy to love. He was a great part of every day. I'm sure the bond between him and Miles is going to be awesome. Life is tough enough my goal is to make the training as fun as possible for the dog and family. If we don't have fun we won't repeat it. Thank you for your kind review.
