Highly highly highly recommend Dog Dudes and Andy as trainers! He trained our three Newfoundlands. Before training, it was impossible to comfortably walk one of them! At 100+lbs, they were walking you! On day one at home, I can easily and confidently walk 2 together and will be adding in the third soon!! House manners are also amazing now!
Also, loved all the updates, pictures, and videos while our dogs were away!
Andy has a gift! His passion for dogs is obvious and they love and respond to him!
You will not regret the investment in this training! Worth every penny!!

I had the pleasure of working with Andy. He helped my two babies, Niko and Charlotte, gain more confidence and more obedience.
Niko, though very sweet, was very reactive and I could not take him anywhere without him acting out, bark and freaking out causing people to be afraid of him. I could not take him anywhere and had to keep him away when people would come over. He somehow had worked magic with Niko, when I saw them go to Lowe’s on a day trip my heart was in my throat! I was so relieved to see Niko actually relaxing and enjoying walking through the store, ignoring all the people. It gave me so much joy to witness this!
Charlotte, a very shy and sweet little girl, needed lots of help feeling more confident in order for the work to begin. She would shut down and not respond when too much was happening, walking through PetSmart etc. Andy had a lot of patience with Charlotte. When she was too scared to listen to a command, he would pause, reassure her, give her love, and start again, making her feel comfortable and more confident. Helping her over come this was a key moment in her training.
Andy would give daily updates through text and even videos of their progress. He also would explain and give examples of how to implement that at home. Their Board and Train was during Halloween and he even had them join their family bonfire. They were treated like part of the family and that meant the world to me! At pickup, we had a long session that trained me on how to implement their training at home and using the e-collar correctly. He answered so many questions in an understanding and understandable way. He guarantees their success, encourages updates and questions.
On the trip back home, Niko and Charlotte joined me INSIDE PetSmart! Charlotte did not shut down and Niko was so well behaved! I almost thought I picked up the wrong dogs! Even with kids running around and other dogs barking, my two little ones handled it like pros.
Andy was fantastic and I will continue to recommend him to everyone. He treats your babies as his own and I can tell mine will miss hanging out with him and his family.
The kids say ‘Thank you, Andy!’ 🐾

Huge transformation in our Doberman thanks to dog dudes k9 training dean was great at explaining everything to us and keeping up updated on everything he was doing and responded to all our questions and continues to help us if needed our daily life has been simplified due to not having to struggle to get Tyson to listen now he is well behaved and dean exceeded my expectations with Tyson !

Andy did a great job working with our Holly. She had leash aggression, poor impulse control and she would listen to commands when she felt like it. We found Dog Dudes K9 training through a friend who had used them and had success. We chose the two week board and train due to the issues Holly had. You can tell that Andy loves his job, loves the dogs and wants to set you and your dog up for success. We received daily photos and videos showing her progress. When we picked Holly up Andy educated us on his training methods and showed us how to work with Holly. He has been available for questions and suggestions since we’ve had her home. Holly now walks without pulling while leashed, I can off leash walk her and she actually listens to commands. I would definitely use Dog Dudes K9 training again.

All-star training and absolutely amazing people. We enjoyed working with Dean for our 2-year old GSD that just came into our lives. After a 2-week board and train, he went from being extremely leash-reactive to dogs, to having the confidence to be able to be around other dogs. When he came back, his obedience was 100% night and day different from the way he was prior to working with Dean. I can't recommend Dean and Andy enough and know that they will be there for us in the future if we have questions or concerns. The training was worth every penny and I would not hesitate to do it again with any other dog that we might get in the future.
