Testimonials
“We’ve been doing private lessons with Pepe since bringing home our new puppy — he’s the best! He taught me how to teach my puppy with positive reinforcement and although training is quite a long process, results are already visible. And most of all I now know how to continue to teach my dog using positive reinforcement.”
– Donna Winer
“If I could rate this more than 5 stars, I totally would! When I started private lessons with Pepe I wasn’t very hopeful — past trainers couldn’t fix my dog Cream’s reactivity… Already by the 4th training session she was walking next to another dog! Pepe is super kind-hearted and has a really good knowledge on dogs and their behavior.”
– Laura Sambataro
“Pepe is an awesome trainer. Getting a puppy is overwhelming, but hiring him was the best decision I’ve made… Otis is happier. I am less stressed. And it’s by and large thanks to Pepe’s effective, kind and compassionate approach.”
– Marco Pizzato
