Testimonials

Frank installed my original electric fence. He took time to train me and work with Piper for her safety. I had to move recently and needed a new fence. I contacted Frank and he was more than reliable. The fence was installed. He made sure that Piper was trained properly again. He checked in to see how she was doing and was extremely supportive with all the changes. I will only suggest Frank and his services for an electric fence and training.

Frank is the best. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, easy going and provides training for your specific dog’s needs. I have worked with at least 8 trainers over the past 10 years and as a dog pet care service provider it is important that I am able to refer excellent trainers to my clients. I have personally worked with Frank with my new dog and her progress and transformation is amazing.
– Client

I give 5 stars to Frank! Frank installed my electric fence and gave training to my dog. He also walked me through the training process to be sure it was successful. He was extremely patient with me as I had a lot of questions being a first time dog owner. If I have any questions or concerns regarding any dog matter Frank is there to answer my questions, assist, and provide his expertise. He also has groomed my puppy and she came back perfect. I highly recommend him.
