Ardent K9 Training LLC.

We rescued a dog from the humane society two months ago, a wonderful, energetic, happy year-old male Pointer-Cattle Dog mix. But he was way too excited around new people and new dogs and I wasn't able to help him control himself in those situations. We interviewed three dog trainers in the Verde Valley and went with Jason at Ardent K9. We just finished our third training session with Jason and Rider is still wonderful, energetic, and happy, but I'm able to help him control himself in new situations. I'm as relieved as I am happy and can recommend Jason without reservation. Jason is always helping me understand the whys behind the right and wrong ways to correct and reward. I have so much more confidence around Rider and I know he's happier. We both enjoy our hikes and trips to Tractor Supply. You know how when you're around certain people -- a doctor, a plumber, a teacher -- and you JUST KNOW they're the "real deal"? They know their stuff, cold. The don't try to impress you, they're focused completely on what they're doing, and it seems effortless for them? That's the feeling I get around Jason. He's the real deal. Using a dog trainer like Jason isn't cheap, although he was one of the least expensive trainers I interviewed. But if you see the time spent with your dog as time to relax and enjoy, as quality time, as fun time, you owe it to yourself and your dog to find someone like Jason. It's actually the cheapest hobby I've ever had and I look forward to our time together every day. Thank you, Jason!
