Chris had our 4.5 month old doberman puppy for a week while we were on vacation. We left a puppy who only knew how to sit. A week later, we came home to a puppy with a solid foundation in heeling, placing, down, stand, and a dog with better manners (no longer jumped on us, etc.) Chris also updated us with videos of Allegro while we were on vacation. Overall, we are very pleased with the progress Chris made and we would recommend his service to others.

After calling a few different companies for dog training I'm glad I found Chris. He was the first one to listen to my needs and was very flexible on meeting times and follow up sessions. He is very professional and HONEST. He will treat your dog like family! You will see the results!

Chris was great to work with! I am a first time dog owner and he was focused on ensuring that I had the training that I needed in order to have successful training with my dog to continue his progress outside of sessions. He is open to any training style and will work with whatever you are comfortable with.
