Testimonials

“I can’t recommend Mike enough. I have had dogs all my life and have worked with a variety of trainers over the years and Mike is my favorite. He has a very calm energy and his training is tailored to the specific needs of your dog. … I do see a big difference in my two dogs. Their focus and attention in distracting environments has greatly improved and the reactiveness in one of my dogs is completely gone.”
– Client

“Mike did a phenomenal job … Seeing how terrified the dog was to leave was heartbreaking but 3 weeks later he’s returned & is behaving like a charm.”
– Client

“We took in a stray puppy that appeared to have a really tough start in life. … He’s back from board & train and is very much improved— walks nicely on a leash and doesn’t react to humans or dogs, knows all of his commands.”
– Client
