Testimonials
“If you are thinking of rehabilitating your dog, there is no need to look any further!! Pat is simply THE BEST! He came into our home and met with our whole family first and listened to all our concerns (which was a lot!). When he met Luna for the first time, it was simply amazing how she responded to him. It was like I was standing in front of Cesar Milan!! Once he taught us about being calm and assertive, it made all the difference in the world! One lesson he taught us that truly has changed our every day lives was, “Luna will create balance in your life”. Which is 100% accurate! I would recommend Pat to anyone!”

About the Trainer
Packman to the Rescue, K9 Solutions & Coaching believes it’s about training people, not dogs, to restore the human-dog relationship and ensure happy pups and humans thrive through stellar communication, healthy boundaries, and love. Their primary goal is to help owners understand dog psychology and “dog language” to meet their dog’s core needs first, fostering a lifelong bond.
The “Packman Way” rejects traditional dog training techniques that focus solely on treats and obedience commands, as these do not address the root cause of behavioral issues. Instead, they focus on fixing the underlying problem, such as excitement leading to jumping, rather than just the symptom. They pride themselves on looking at both human and dog psychology, basing techniques on feelings and patterns, recognizing that the owner’s state of mind plays a major role in the dog’s behavior and psychological well-being.
Services include Virtual Coaching, In-Person Coaching, Behavioral Rehabilitation, Basic Obedience, Puppy Training, and Leadership Coaching. Each service is tailored to follow the “Packman Way” to address and fully combat the root cause of behavioral issues.
Accomplishments
The leader of Packman to the Rescue is Pat “The Packman,” who was once terrified of dogs and used to be shy, anxious, insecure, and fearful. At age 40, he made a total career change from 16 years in financial services. He discovered his talent for understanding and rehabilitating troubled dogs after facing his fear, discovering Cesar Millan’s “The Dog Whisperer,” and subsequently adopting and rehabilitating his Pitbull, Socks. His true passion is to help people overcome their own fears, anxieties, and insecurities, and teach them dog psychology and “dog-language.”
