Gerson is incredibly gentle, positive and wonderful with both of our dogs. He tailors the training to each of our dogs needs / personalities and ensures that they are having a positive experience / having fun while learning. We cannot recommend Mandala dog training enough!

Very nice guy over the phone but when the appointment day came, he couldn’t make it because it wasn’t pointed in his schedule.
