Testimonials

“I am overjoyed at the experience I had with Jeff. I sent 2 out of control German Shepherd puppies 8 months old to Jeff, to train. They are % better. They listen, walk on their leashed, mind commands. This was definitely worth sending them to Jeff. He kept me informed through text, videos and calls. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking for a trainer.”
– Client

“Really great experience, I had a very rambunctious German Shepard pup that Jeff trained and boarded during training. She now listens, follows commands and has over all been a great experience. He is very knowledgeable and patient, Jeff took the time to explain the commands and what needed to be done on our part, very easy to understand. He also kept us up to date with videos also during the boarding, this has been an over all great experience and I’m really happy with the outcome! Thank you Jeff”
