Testimonials

Amazing Training with Fidel! Fidel was fantastic with our Bernedoodle! He’s patient, knowledgeable, and truly understands dogs. Our pup is now calmer, better behaved, and happier. Fidel made the process easy and enjoyable–highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great trainer! We especially appreciated how Fidel tailored the training to our dog’s personality and gave us clear guidance to continue progress at home. His passion for what he does really shows, and the results speak for themselves!

Fidel the owner and trainer has trained 4 of my dogs (each over 80lbs), and several dogs within my family and friends. When you meet him you will see it obvious it more than just a job. He has a genuine love and strong passion for what he does. He treats all dogs as if they were his own. His training abilities is unlike any other, he is the true dog whisperer. This is why even though I relocated to California I flew to Florida with my pup because Fidel is worth it every penny and I trust no one else with my dogs more than him. My current 8-month Shepard Rotti named Rocco when I dropped him off was stubborn and suffers from hearing issues. During his training Fidel would call and provide updates along with photos of my pup. He kept me informed throughout the entire training process. When I dropped off Rocco he was uncontrollable, and I feared for his life if he ever got out because he could not hear me call him. I just picked him up from training and he is the same happy pup I left but now has manners and extremely well trained. I can place him at a sit stay 5 houses down and stand out of his line of site and he doesn’t not move. I can now communicate with him, and I can recall him if he were ever lose without fear anymore. Not only did Fidel train him but he spent 3 days training and educating me on how to communicate with my pup what to do to keep up with his training. He set us up for success and even checked in with me after I left with Rocco multiple times. He adapted his training to accommodate to Rocco’s hearing issues and my pup now responds by reading lips, hand signals, and recall using a whistle. He is like a new confident pup. Fidel even went a step further and showed me what I how to integrate my pup with my current two other dogs and be able to walk with all 3 of them (all of which are over 80lbs). People see me with my three dogs and are so impressed how a women mange’s three large dogs and how well behaved they all are. I will never go to any one else no matter where I live, I will go the extra mile for Fidel as he always done for me, my family, and all of my friends.

I started my relationship with Fidel 8+ years ago when I left my 3 fur babies with him. Fast forward to now, he has been training my Cane Corso Dagger. Dagger was quite young and I was fearful of his getting sick-Fidel took him into his actual home to make sure he was safe. Dagger embarked on a journey of going from an insecure pup who would not step on a scale to get weighed to a very well mannered obedient pup. By the way Dagger is only 6months old. Fidel is amazing in his field. Knowledgeable in all aspects from nutrition to specific breed temperament which is critical with a breed like Daggers. I have always felt very comfortable with boarding my dogs with Fidel, however he has exceeded my expectations with regards to training. Even though Dagger is now home he continues to be supportive and provides his guidance. His prices are reasonable and although he can be a drill sergeant when you go in for your training, you will appreciate it once you get your pup home. And besides he’s a big softee at heart. Let’s face it, if my dogs approve, so do I!! IMHO you cannot do better by your dogs than Fidel and Wolffs Kennel
