Champion K-9 Dog Training

Rick provided a detailed explanation of his training program and clearly set expectations for our dog before, during, and after training. We chose his board-and-train program, and the outcome was phenomenal. Our GSD puppy came back a completely different dog—very well-behaved and, for lack of better words, full of manners. We continue to train with Rick at home to build on our dog’s training, and he has made himself readily available whenever we have questions or concerns. He always responds quickly and in a timely manner. We now truly consider him part of the family.

Training my dog with Rick was a positive and rewarding experience. He tailors his training to exactly what you want to accomplish for your specific dog. His training method is both straightforward and achievable, allowing you to start with simple goals and working your way up to bigger goals. He gives you the tools necessary to work with your dog on your own time. The success you achieve with your dog starts with Rick, but the owner must do their homework and stay consistent with training. Most importantly, as a busy mom, I appreciated the convenience of Rick coming to my house for training sessions.

Rick is a stand up guy and an incredible dog trainer. My wife and I had Rick take and train Biscuit our 185 Lb English Mastiff puppy. Rick refers calling him The Big Guy. My wife is a small lady in stature and Biscuit being a big puppy was dragging her down the street. Biscuit was also bullying her. Rick solved this problem immediately. Biscuit absolutely loves Rick. That’s very apparent as when Rick walks into the room Biscuit can’t take his eyes off him. Tail wagging and he is truly attentive to Rick. I think Biscuit loves Rick more than anyone. Rick has achieved the following: Biscuit no longer barks in his crate, Biscuit no longer barks at other dogs, Biscuit is very well behaved out in public, Biscuit no longer pulls on his leash, Biscuit is treating his little brother (Great Dane puppy) with kindness and respect. Biscuit has started being the pup that my wife and I have been looking for. My wife can take Biscuit out for walks and to businesses that are dog friendly. Biscuit is truly a very well behaved dog, very friendly, very sweet, and wants to please. Rick has done an amazing job! It is my belief that Rick is not only a terrific dog trainer but has become part of our family. Thank you Rick, you’re a awesome trainer, amazing person and a true friend. Danny Woods.
