We train dogs llc

The short version: David is a miracle worker with dogs (and their owners.) If you want a well-behaved dog that can share every aspect of your life, and you need help getting there, you will find no better trainer than this guy! For those of you seriously considering the leap to work with a professional dog trainer, here is the longer version (because nobody would send their dog off with a stranger for 3 weeks without doing their research!): Before we found David, my mini Australian Labradoodle pup, Atticus, was gorgeous to look at but often stressful to be around. He was a maniac when friends came over, jumping up on guests, knocking drinks out of their hands, and just generally dominating the room. He owned my couch no matter how many times I said “off!" On walks, he pulled me along at his pace, jumping up on every passerby as if they were long-lost cousins. He was a scavenger who picked up everything in sight, from dead birds to chicken bones, and refused to “drop it” even though we practiced that command at home ad nauseam. No matter how many puppy classes we attended (12 to be exact), things weren’t improving. Now, after 3 weeks boarding/training with David, he’s good looking AND obedient, polite, and a pure joy to be around. On walks he stays close by my side like we’re competing at Westminster. In the house, he quickly goes to his “place” when visitors arrive (or anytime I tell him.) His stay command is very strong. His demeanor is no longer “that crazy dog” as my friends referred to him behind my back. I thought, incorrectly, that I had socialized Atticus adequately; David took it to the next level. Now he is calm, confident, and happy both at home and in public. That’s not to say he is suddenly a perfect dog. But now he responds positively when corrected. He takes me seriously and in return, I treat him with respect. I will be forever grateful to David for the positive relationship Atticus and I can now have for the rest of his life! If you have been on the fence about whether to get professional training for your dog, call David to learn about your dog’s potential. He will be upfront with you about what is possible. I was anxious about sending my pup away for 3 weeks, but I am so glad I did it. David genuinely loves dogs, and he took care of mine as if he were his own. Throughout the 3 weeks he had Atticus, David communicated with me almost daily via texts and videos, sharing what he was teaching, showing me how Atticus was responding, and explaining to me the how and why of his methods. I learned a lot about what my job would be once I brought Atticus home through our text exchanges and one-on-one training at David's place because truthfully, my dog wasn’t the one who needed to be trained. It was me all along!

My 4-year-old Welsh Terrier, Scout, didn't know it, but he was on death row in my house. This stubborn, feisty dog was a nightmare on the leash and a general terror. I really thought we'd have to re-home him. But three weeks with David and Scout is a different dog! He's polite, well-behaved and obedient. Best of all, he's happier and so are we. David loves dogs and they love him back. Scout and I plan to live happily ever after, thanks to David, the Dog Whisperer of Chesapeake!

David did an absolute amazing job of working with me and my pitty Xena , he was very knowledgeable and helpful with teaching me how to better understand her behaviors and teaching us how to work through her stubbornness!! We are now able to enjoy outings without the fear of me not being able to control her and because of him we are able to enjoy our walks out at all types of parks !! Thank you for showing me what is possible!

Absolutely Life-Changing Experience! Best Trainer Ever! I can’t even begin to express how incredible our experience was with David at We Train Dogs LLC. Our puppy spent time with him for a dedicated training program, and when he came back, he was truly a puppy we had never seen before. Before the training, we struggled with biting, jumping on people, pulling when walked, bouncing off the walls, skipping across furniture, and counter surfing. After working with David, our puppy is now calm, obedient, and responsive. It’s as if he unlocked the best version of our pup we didn’t know was possible. What truly sets David apart is not only his expertise and genuine love for puppies but also his dedication to teaching us as puppy parents. He provided us with the tools, skills, and confidence to maintain the training at home and ensure our puppy’s continued success and growth. David didn’t just train our puppy – he empowered us to reinforce what was taught and build an ongoing foundation for positive behavior. The results speak for themselves – our puppy listens to commands, walks perfectly on a leash, and his behavior at home is night and day compared to before. It’s like we brought home a new puppy, but one that still has his same lovable personality – just more well-behaved! I can’t recommend David enough to anyone looking for personalized, effective, and transformative puppy training. The experience was worth every moment and every dollar. If you’ve been considering professional training, stop searching and book with David at We Train Dogs LLC. You won’t regret it. This was the best decision we ever made for our puppy – and for us. Thank you, David, for giving us the puppy of our dreams and the tools to keep him that way!
