Cochran K9 Training

Matt is very knowledgeable. I liked especially how he was focusing on the dogs view… he helped me to understand my dogs perspective. Very gentle and respectful to the dog. He coached me and Bruno during our private lessons how to communicate with each other. I can work and train now with a different focus and clarity for me any my dog. He coached me in detail through punishment sequences. The Heands on feedback during our walks was so valuable and changed everything immediately. Thank you Matt totally worth it !!!!!! Would recommend private lessons 100% . I have a much better relationship with my dog after our lessons and trust in our off leash recall. The off leash recall provides freedom and fun to my dog!!!!

I had my 8 month old puppy board and train with Matt. He wasn’t “bad” but needed some obedience and leash training so that we could live the active lifestyle that I have in a more controlled but still fun way. Matt is AWESOME!! He cares about his program dogs, treats them like his own, and truly loves what he does. After a month, my lab came back being able to walk off leash, able to be around people and settle on his own, and responsive to the commands. I can’t recommend Matt and his programs enough!!

10/10 experience with Matt! My dog Branch did a board & train program for nipping, car chasing, pulling, not listening, you name it! For 4 weeks, Matt communicated frequently with videos and pictures of Branch’s progress. I was extremely hesitant leaving my dog for that long with someone but Matt made it easy! I watched as Branch went from lunging at strangers on walks to walking right past them without a glance. In addition, he was fully off leash trained in 4 weeks! I was stressed that Branch would never be able to be around people but with Matt’s training, he’s showing everyone the side of him that I’ve always seen. I don’t know that I could’ve done this with anyone else, he’s changed Branch’s life for sure!!

Matt has been absolutely awesome to work with! I got my Australian Shepherd back yesterday and could not be happier with the results. Matt did not only train Auggie but he took the time to train me on how to handle him as well. He has only been home a day but the difference in his behavior has been mind blowing. I can say at this point in time I now have control over Auggie and very confident I have the appropriate knowledge to handle any situation we may encounter. We can not thank you enough and we are excited to have Auggie back!!!!
