Jake has been fantastic to work with. We have an almost 1 year old Doberman who really needed to learn some manners. He was (is) not a bad dog by any means, but he just lacked common respect and manners that we once thought we could teach him on our own. He did not listen to mom very well, but would listen to dad when he felt like it. Jake has rectified all concerns we had prior to Wesley's training. When we brought Wesley home after his three weeks, we were pleasantly surprised with the changes that were made. He now listens to every command from both my boyfriend and myself. When we find ourselves with a question, we always reach out to Jake and get a response almost instantly. The training has been a learning process that is so worth it. There is a new level of peace in our house that I didn't know was possible. I'm grateful to have stumbled upon A Leg Up K9.

We left our 7 mos old yellow lab Sophie with Jacob and left for vacation and came home to a new dog. I am writing this 8 mos later and will say she is as good today as the day we got her back. We have stuck with the program as well as staying firm with her, but the hard work was already done. Unfortunately she had surgery on her knee a couple of mos ago and needed 10 weeks of bedrest and if not for the training, our lives would've been much different during that time. She is a confident, intelligent dog and we hardly have had any problems at all. Any issues w digging or getting on the couch can be blamed on us for taking our eye off the ball (keep their collar on!). All in all i could not recommend jacob enough everything was professional, top notch and more than worth it. We did the on and off leash training fyi.

Jake trained both our dogs and we couldn't be happier. While it is a lot of work once you get your dogs back from training, it is very much worth it. Our house is much quieter and under control. Jake is professional and easy to work with and the amount of 5-star reviews is no accident.

Never finished home visits. Continued to be in charge of getting in-home visits to happen. Was not the type of service I expected for the price at all.

Jake is always quick to respond to any questions we have with training. He has a no nonsense approach to training that teaches the dog to be respectful of the owners terms and expectations, whether that be in the home or in public. Our pitbull struggled with obedience and working with our daily schedule. With Jake’s training and easy to learn commands, she is starting to have a routine and is slowly on her way to being fully obedient. We highly recommend A Leg Up K9 for anyone who wants assistance with training their dog to create a long lasting relationship with their trained companion.
