Charry’s Premier K-9 Training

We hired Brian because walking our two dogs was a nightmare. They pulled the whole time, tried to chase squirrels, barked and lunged at other dogs, and darted all over the place trying to sniff everything at top speed. My shoulders always hurt after walking them and I would get so frustrated!!! So often times they just wouldn’t get walked. But that was really boring for them and they’d whine and pace around the house. (We have a yard too but they didn’t like to run or play together.) Anyway, I was at my wit’s end but also feeling nervous about hiring the right trainer. I didn’t want them to be hit or scruffed or rolled or anything like that. Anyway I finally asked for recommendations on FB and toooons of people recommended Brian, so we decided to give him a try. It was worth every penny!! Brian really knows his stuff. We saw rapid improvement with our dogs and now have the tools and knowledge to keep working on better and better reactions around other dogs. My shoulders do not hurt any more from getting pulled, and I’m not bickering with my dogs the whole time!! They walk by our sides and stay focused on walking, not stopping every two seconds to sniff. Honestly I was skeptical because one of our dogs can be really stubborn and she’s not food motivated, but she ended up doing really, really well. Our other dog was the problem child lol. Brian is great with the dogs and is a great coach for humans too. He is patient with questions, explains things well, doesn’t get annoyed at having to explain things multiple times, etc. Go ahead and bring your “embarrassing” dogs to him. I think you’ll be amazed!!

We just picked up our 10-month-old Goldendoodle after the three-week board-and-train with Brian, and I am absolutely blown away by the results. Before training, our pup was incredibly excitable—jumping on our kids, counter surfing, running away, and generally making himself the center of attention. His only real command was “sit,” and even that was about a 50/50 proposition. Three weeks later, the difference is incredible. Brian was wonderful to work with—communicative, flexible, and really took the time to understand our dog and our family’s specific needs. He didn’t just train our dog; he trained us too, which I think has made all the difference. I now feel comfortable having family and friends over without worrying that our dog is going to be a complete nuisance. That alone is a total game changer for our family. I cannot recommend Brian enough. If you’re considering training, do it. The three weeks were absolutely worth it!

I sent my 8 month old Great Dane Charlie to Brian for board and train. Great experience from start to finish. Charlie was nervous and lacked confidence when we sent him. After just 3 weeks he is able to be in public in a relaxed state and also walk on leash with ease. My wife couldn’t walk him before his training and now she is loose leash walking him no problem. We are blown away with the results and I can’t recommend a Charity’s Premier K-9 Training enough!
