Testimonials
“Trevor is an amazing trainer! I highly recommend him to anyone who is has a dog with behavioral problems or if you just want a well trained dog. He has worked with multiple dogs that I have fostered and I take my own dogs to him as well. He develops plans for each individual dog depending on their specific needs.”
– Kylie T.
“Trevor did an amazing job with our rescue puppy. Paco was very dog reactive and generally scared of everything. After working with Trevor he is a different dog. He can still be shy, but is no longer reactive and is so much more confident.”
– Karen M.
“Trevor was very helpful giving us the tools we needed to manage our leash-reactive dog, Oscar. We had been told when shopping for trainers that Oscar was a lost cause, a lawsuit waiting to happen. Not so. Trevor understood Oscar better than anyone we tried and we made a whole lot of progress with Oscar very quickly. We now expect that Oscar will, in fact, achieve Great Dog status. Thanks, Trevor!”
– William G.
