Testimonials
“Mason was absolutely fantastic to work with and my dog has made incredible improvements! Jovi was very reactive. While working with Mason, she’s learned to ignore other animals and not bark/ lunge/ go after them. It does take work. Not only during the dedicated day of training, but everyday. YOU have to be willing to put in the time for your dog too. Never did I imagine Jovi would be able to be this close to other dogs or be in public spaces like this. Thank you Mason for the amazing training. Could not be happier!”

“Our one on one training with Mason was absolutely fantastic. Our Akita keeper was having increasing reactivity towards dogs and new people. By the end of our 6 sessions keeper is doing so much better and we are much more confident with handling keeper. Our final session at Scheels people were walking past keeper from both sides and he remained in down in a calm state. Mason was fully comfortable working with our big boy which gave us more confidence as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone especially someone who is experiencing reactivity with their own fur babies! Thank you Canine by Design and thank you Mason!!”

“Canine by Design was such a lifesaver for my dog! Bentley struggled SEVERELY with being friendly with anyone and everyone, besides his family. He was very aggressive, unmanageable and uncontrollable with unfamiliar guests, kids, and other dogs in the distance. But thankfully Mason and his amazing work and patience have helped Bentley live a more calm and manageable lifestyle. We can now walk peacefully, have new guests over and remain calm, commands work the first time told. Overall, Bentley’s energy/demeanor is extremely calm and our guests are extremely impressed with the change they’ve also seen in Bentley. The boundaries established by Mason have been an incredible life saver and a game changer. I have a completely different dog!”
