My husband and I adopted our dog, Maverick, at 8 weeks old back in February. As he got older we started having quiet a few issues with him: - Over excitement in public and with guests - Leash pulling - Jumping on people and counters - Barking nonstop when told no - Not being able to settle outside his crate - Overly mouthy and biting when excited In all honesty, I felt like a victim in my own home where I was no longer enjoying time with Maverick and he was crated often. I knew something needed to be done to correct his behavior. We reached out to Steve and had a consultation that week. When we walked in Maverick was a wild guy and within a few minutes of Steve handling him he was already being so much more behaved. We left and decided to pull the trigger and dropped him at a 4 week board and train the following morning. The process: let me make a BIG note. A lot of board and trains work solely on the dog. When in reality the humans need to be trained as well. That is why we loved this facility so much. Two weeks no contact followed by two weeks training with your dog and a trainer. When we started to work with Maverick on week two we already saw a huge difference. To the point he would be able to pass a person in an aisle without having to say hi and seeing a dog and not being phased / thinking it’s play time. We bought home Maverick yesterday and it’s already been so nice. He sleeps outside of his crate during the day, settles without needing a toy and can be walked without us having to dread doing it. I’m so grateful we used Can Ur Dog Do This?? Steve, Nick and the other trainers know what they are doing. If you’re looking for a facility to train your dog (as well as you) stop looking and contact Steve. Thank you so much for your help and we look forward to boarding Maverick with you in October!
