Testimonials

“Thank you to Oscar who made this possible! This handsome gentleman was a jumper, about pulled my arm off on a leash, and pretty much had no manners to speak of and I knew he was on his way to being a very large dog based upon his daddys size. We went on vacation and handed him over to Oscar hoping for a miracle. No miracle needed, what you see below is skill! Now this young pup stays in “place” until he is told he can leave, even when the AT&T guy was in the house, walks very nicely and is just an all around better behaved dog. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trainer!”
– Nicole H.

“My seven year old German Shepherd was randomly aggressive to one of the dogs she grew up with. I was worried, but I’m super relieved I found Oscar who works with modifying that behavior. I live two hours away, but it was worth the travel. She’s home now and doing so well. I really appreciate the work they do.”
– Haley Calicott

“Oscar is one of the best trainers in Houston! He has trained both of our dogs Baron and Belle. Baron, a Dutch Shepherd, especially is a dog not for the novice owner and of course I had never owned a dog… We had a difficult start and Oscar went above and beyond to help me build our relationship and make him more mine then my husbands. He spent weeks building my confidence and mending my relationship with our Baron. He is literally Baron’s second Dad and we owe Oscar a lot. With Belle, our beautiful golden retriever, he actually corrected one of her bad habits within one session! Highly recommend him for any dog training you need!”
– Charlotte Deom
