FirstBarkMichael has been a great help in training our pandemic puppy! He is patient, and thorough in his explanations so that you fully understand the dog's behavior and how best to manage/change it. Highly recommend him for training!

Michael was great to work with. Would recommend without a doubt
Michael Litzky was recommended to us by a friend. We've had one session with him so far and I was so impressed, I immediately bought a package for additional lessons. He's highly skilled, professional and you can tell training is a passion for him. I can't wait to see the progress from our future sessions. Highly recommended!
I rescued a four year old cocker three months ago. I have no idea what his past history is but he is very anxious when he sees people on our walk and he doesn't like walking on the leash. Mike have me some pointers as to how I can overcome my little guys anxiety. He still has a long way to go but mikes advice is working most of the time.

Our 2 year old boxer lost her social skills when the COVID pandemic hit Georgia. She became very introverted so we started with basic obedience which gave her more confidence & now we have moved into 1 on 1 training with Michael. He has helped her understand that people are not bad and that you can’t play with every dog. His positive training techniques are easy for both of us to understand. I give BHV training 5 stars!
