Crouse Canine

Super knowledgeable and personable! We have had many many dogs over the years and finally landed with one a little over our scale. Derek has helped us so much and every single thing he has said has been spot on for our specific breed. Our dog loves him, we learn so much every visit, and have fun doing it. It is never "work" and we can see our dog grow and we are growing as dog owners. I like that we do a lot of/most training at home, because that's where bad habits form and that where we live and are most of the time.

Derek is incredible at what he does. Things I try and work on with my dog (and struggle with), Derek will come in, get him to do it immediately, correctly and without issue. He is patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about our dog’s progress. Derek always takes the time to explain each step of the training process and gives us simple tools to continue working at home. Our dog’s behavior has improved so much — walks are easier, manners are better, and over all demeanor has been great. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate dog trainer!
