It is impressive how calm and content Rosie is now. It is as if she wanted to become cooperative at the end of Mr. Wright’s leash. After we got Rosie home, we found that she kept her calmness on walks, even in the presence of other dogs and various distractions. We understand it is we who are being trained more so than Rosie, but even after working with Dobermans for 25 years, Argos is the best training we have ever been part of. It also bears mentioning that Argos posts videos of your dog's training so we could better pick up and review the methods. These are very useful on an ongoing basis.

I had such a great experience with the board and train program for my dog, Melanie. From the very beginning, the process was easy and informative. The free phone call and in-person meeting gave me the opportunity to share a lot about Melanie, her personality, and the goals I wanted to accomplish with her training. I never felt pressured into choosing a particular package — instead, I was guided toward an option that truly made sense for us. During the week she was away, I loved receiving videos and updates on her progress. It was clear that Martin took the time to really get to know Melanie — not just her behaviors, but also her habits, skills, and personality. That personal attention meant a lot to me and made the experience feel very individualized. The support and communication throughout the entire process were amazing. Melanie seemed genuinely happy, well cared for, and comfortable, which gave me so much peace of mind. Everything was incredibly organized, thoughtful, and easy from start to finish. I’m really looking forward to continuing to work with Martin and the Argos team as Melanie and I continue growing in our skills and communication together. Highly recommend!

Martin helped us establish better routines with our anxious and reactive 1 year old, Freddie and taught him to walk calmly on the gentle leader leash. now he no longer lunges and barks at cars or people and we have a better understanding of how to help him be his best self.

We have done puppy kindergarten and the 5 day board and train with Argos for Beau and it was amazing! We definitely recommend Martin he kept us in the loop and did a follow up to see how we were doing!

Martin did an amazing job training our 3 year old corgi to eliminate leash reactivity and establish calm. We chose the 5 day board and train option and are very glad we did. Our dog was almost un-walkable before but now is calm and walks on a loose leash. We will be back for additional training events!
