Testimonials
We had such a great experience with Steve. My dog Cody stayed for a 2-week board and train, and the results have been amazing. He came back much more focused, better on leash, and overall more confident. You can really tell how much care and patience Steve puts into the dogs.
-Cody’s Owner
Steve, the Dog trainer has been working with our dog Toby who had behavioral issues. He was a rescue and we’ve had Steve work with him and he has done so much better. Appreciate all the work Steve is done with Toby. He’s much easier to live with — no longer pulls on the leash and knows commands like stay, sit, come, and release.
-Toby’s Owner
Before training, my boy Cosmo used to pull me up and down the street on walks. Thanks to the training, that’s no longer a problem! Steve was especially helpful — he kept me updated every day during Cosmo’s board and stay training, which gave me confidence in the process.
