Testimonials
Paul is an excellent and experienced trainer, kind person, and knows an incredible amount about dogs. He taught us so much, both during our sessions and after with follow up content. He was great with our fearful and reactive dog, taking the time to build her confidence, and teaching me what to do, how and when to do it. She also stayed with him for a week or so while we were away and did very well. We plan to continue working with Paul and trust him completely!
– Client
We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into when we rescued Roxy. Separation anxiety, fear of social situations with other dogs and people, no drive to play, to name a few challenges. We reached out to Paul, and he really took the time to thoroughly assess Roxy in order to meet her where she was, and move at a safe pace for her so that she trusted him, and explored new situations when she was ready. Paul is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about promoting healthy development and safety for dogs. Not only has Paul helped us learn about training and handling our dog, but Roxy’s excitement when she sees Paul on training days could speak for itself. We have a much more confident and playful dog these days, and words cannot express our gratitude for Paul’s support!
– Client
Our Labrador Retriever loves to go and train with Paul. She often boards there if we are away. He is very kind and gentle with our dog and she responds so well to him. Highly recommend Paul for training your dog.
