Testimonials

“I recently sent my Doberman, Xena, to Eric for his three-week training program, and the transformation has been incredible. From the moment I picked her up, I could see the difference — she was more focused, obedient, and in control of her energy. Eric clearly knows what he’s doing. He took the time to understand Xena’s temperament and tailored the training to her specific needs. When I got her back, he walked me through everything she learned and showed me how to maintain her progress at home, which I really appreciated. Xena came back with better manners, stronger obedience, and a calmer mindset overall. The results speak for themselves. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and highly skilled trainer who can deliver real results, I highly recommend Eric. He exceeded my expectations and gave Xena an amazing foundation.”

“This is our Sadie, cute and lovable…but, also was chewing everything, chasing the cats and not listening when asking her to do something. After doing much research, I found Eric from Premier Pack dog training!!! Wow, I am so glad I called. Eric had Sadie for 3 weeks. After the 3 weeks he came to our home sat down and explained every detail that he worked with Sadie on. He even demonstrated and had myself and my family work with Sadie while he was here. Just to see how we handled her and he was able to correct us when needed. Eric went over everything and it took a couple hours. He listened and addressed every question we had. Long story short, Sadie is like a new puppy. She is beyond the BEST behaved dog. I couldn’t ask for anything more. Thank you for working your magic Eric. We truly couldn’t be happier! BTW not once has she even attempted to eat the cats food.”

“Our dogs now calmly remain in one place when we’re eating AND when guests arrive at our door – need you read more? Okay okay, they also walk calmly next to us when on their leashes. I know, right?!? Jokes aside, if you’re looking for help improving your dog’s behavior and/or you’re hoping for more peace in your home, call Premier Dog Training. Before our consult with Eric, my husband and I were considering re-homing our second rescue, Smalls… Eric took the time necessary to build trust with Smalls… He taught leash skills, obedience, and brought back two confident dogs… They both stay in their directed place during our meals at the kitchen table. Eric taught us exactly how to implement the program at home… has turned a chaotic dynamic into a peaceful home – the humans AND the dogs are happier and less stressed thanks to Premier Dog Training.”
