Lucy, our coonhound mix, spent a week with Jim and returned a different dog: calm, obedient and eager to please. Jim is dedicated to his work, and it shows!
Jim and his staff are absolutely amazing. His knowledge and experience is second to none. We have a rescue German Shepherd who was not at all socialized for the first year of his life and was very reactive (and not in a good way) to people or other dogs. After three weeks of training he is a whole different dog. So very thankful for Jim’s help with our baby. Highly recommend! 🥰
Jim is an excellent dog trainer, and helped Zoe to be more obedient and got her to learn all the basic commands. Truly helped a lot with our very energetic dog. He's a very kind a patient guy.
Jim is so knowledgeable about dug training his patience for you loved ones are second to none I could not ask for a better trainer for my Handsime Pit Bentley and My Beautiful Boerboel Boucca
