  • E-Collars

Rapid Results Dog Training offers a “Five Session Program” designed to take dogs from untrained to advanced obedience in as little as five weeks, often achieving off-leash reliability in less than five training sessions. The program covers basic obedience commands such as sit, heel, down, stand, stay, and come on recall, all reliably performed off-leash.

In addition to obedience, the training addresses common behavioral problems including excessive barking, digging, jumping on people, attacking the door, house training, nipping, biting, resource guarding, counter surfing, and aggression. Training is conducted in the client’s home, neighborhood, and local parks to expose dogs to real-world distractions. The approach focuses on teaching the family (humans and dog) how to communicate effectively, aiming to establish the dog’s proper place within the family hierarchy.

Testimonials

“Hi Ron, Max, the doodle, is now just over four years old and is such a wonderful pet. Thanks mostly to you and your training. If you remember, we were at our wits end and almost ready to give up when we found you and you helped us become a happy family. Max has added so much joy to our lives and the lives of almost everyone who knows him.”
– Trish

“Ron is an amazing trainer. I have 3 extra large dogs and throughout the training they have changed dramatically! I would recommend anyone looking for a trainer to start with Ron, not only did I see results quickly but he was patient with my dogs when they weren’t catching on. Ron’s services are the most affordable I have ever come across and after looking many different places I was pleased when a friend recommended him to me.”
– Cassie

“​Ron does not train your dog, he trains the family (humans and dog) by teaching you how to communicate. In a few weeks Angel was offer her lead and enjoying her walks with more freedom. Ron is affordable, honest and reliable. I promise if you feel frustrated, Ron, will work with you and bring peace to your home and you will LOVE your pup like you never thought you could.”
– Faith
