Testimonials
My dog Faith and I met Todd in 2013 when she was approximately 5 months old. My German Shepherd was immediately attached to Todd’s training techniques. He was a large part of Faith’s early development that paved the way for her to be a well trained dog. As a pet parent, you look for a trainer who is knowledgeable and kind, but stern when needed.
Todd is committed to helping dogs and owners actually become a team. He listened to my concerns and assisted with introducing Faith to large crowds. He went above and beyond in working with Faith to prepare her for her life’s adventure meeting people and being calm in large group situations. Todd provided many practical tips for day to day dog management. You will be amazed at how your pet will respond to training when taught by a caring, compassionate and knowledgeable trainer. I highly recommend Todd Dumann as a trainer for your pet.
– Rosanne & Faith
When I met my husband he had a Pitbull Boxer Mix and I had a Labrador Retriever Golden Mix. Neither dogs were socialized and we both had concerns about them getting along. We called Todd. He met us with our dogs and helped us calmly begin the introduction. I truly believe if it was not for Todd educating my husband and I and being there to train us and our dogs things would not have been smooth. Todd also noticed my husband’s dog was very excited while walking on leash and pulled my husband all over. Todd gave us some techniques and tools that helped my husband really enjoy walking a much calmer dog. Todd not only trained our dogs, he educated us. We have a calm happy blended dog home thanks to Todd. I would recommend Todd to anyone looking for a professional trainer.
– Tom and Kim
Todd worked with my Airedale Terrier and us at our home. He is professional, very patient and understanding. He studies and is knowledgeable about your dog breed. Our dog, Leo, responded and obeyed Todd each visit, from the moment he started each session until the end. I learned so much and feel he truly cared about improving my dog’s behavior. Todd is passionate about his work.
