It is challenging to have a rescue dog (Bailey) with separation anxiety. Barbara and Scott were understanding from the beginning and helped me get in the right mindset to start behavior modification. Although I am still at the early stages, Scott has already provided me with a plan to help with the issues. I feel supported in this process and I hope to have a positive outcome. I can tell you that even in a few weeks of work, I already feel more confident in this process. Bailey and I are not going to give up!

Scott and Barbara are an AMAZING team! They helped soothe our concerns while providing realistic expectations. We learned about the source of our dog’s behavior, his fears, how he thinks, and how to address problematic behaviors. What sets Scott apart is his ability to tailor methods to our dog's personality and needs. He doesn't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, recognizing that every pup is unique. The positive reinforcement techniques have fostered trust and strengthened the bond between our dog and us. But the talents extend beyond just training dogs; Scott is equally adept at coaching owners. With gentle guidance and practical advice, he has empowered us to be the best possible leaders for our dog. After a few sessions, we have noticed improvement in his anxiety in the apartment and less barking. His equipment recommendations are fantastic game changers and has helped me gain control of walking my giant dog! We are so grateful for his assistance and hopeful for more positive changes to come. Would highly recommend their expert services to anyone needing help with aggressive dog behaviors!!!

Scott is an excellent dog trainer and my son and I are so grateful that we were recommended to him by a friend. There are other trainers out there with different styles of training and I am glad we chose Scott. Scott taught us positive behavior modification tools to help our dog Libby (versus negative tools such as prong collars, etc.), hopefully overcome her aggressive behavior. Libby is a great dog - she's a love bug. 98% of the time, she's obedient and well behaved - often better than other dogs around her. But she is a rescue with a past about which we don't know and we learned from Scott that her aggression is about fear, and that we can, with positive modification tools, help her overcome her fears and change her behavior. We just finished the program with Scott and have already seen positive changes in Libby's behavior. Scott really understands dog psychology. I was very impressed with his knowledge, his materials and his ability to communicate the materials to us clearly. I feel like we finally have the tools we need to help Libby live the life she deserves - more calm, less anxious and generally a happier pup who is not afraid of people and other dogs. I plan to post more later as we continue to train Libby with Scott's materials. I very highly recommend Scott and his wife, Barbara who assists him with the training. You will be glad you chose them also.

Scott has an extensive understanding of canine behavior, and provides personalized training for both owner and dog. He is truly interested in helping my dog be calmer and happier. I am grateful to Scott and Barbara for their help with Rosie.

Scott and Barbara helped us with some aggression our dog, Ava, was showing. They were great to work with. Scott is very knowledgeable, kind and patient. Ava is doing much better!!
