We have taken three dogs to Jayson at Focused Dog Training. They are the best! And are always there for you after the training program.

We have worked with Jayson personally for our dogs and he has been a sponsor for our small business. They are the best!!

I did a lot of research on trainers before consulting with Jayson and his team about my unruly German Shepherd. I'd had 4 shepherds before this one, and I just wasn't getting through to her. I enrolled her in the 2-week boot camp. Not going to lie, I was nervous about it and also embarrassed that I had to seek outside help. However, now that the boot camp is complete, and after experiencing my personal lesson with Cortney, I have a different dog. She is still her silly, sweet self (something I worried about) she is still bonded with me (something I worried about) but she is properly trained and it is a joy to be with her. She walks on a leash like a dream. She doesn't jump on folks when they come over, and even though she might not be happy about it, she ignores the cats when they walk through the room. I couldn't be happier with the results and honestly, I think she is happier too. She knows what the rules are and what is expected of her. And the fact that I know Jayson and his team are a text or a call away as I am learning the training techniques is a huge relief. I am delighted we made the decision to send our GSD to the boot camp - worth every doggone penny. Truly.

Waste of money. We sent our pup for "boot camp" training. The issues we had were that he was jumping on people, and barking at other dogs. When you sent him home, you told us he was doing neither. Not true. The only thing he learned was "place." He already knew that command as "go lay down." When he came home, he was skittish and chewed on his feet for a week. You told us he was "emotional." When I questioned the fact that his behaviors hadn't changed, you sent a trainer to my house with a spiked collar (which I am not going to use on my 30# dog).

Jayson and Courtney are incredible. Boot camp was absolutely worth it for us- the value goes so far beyond the price. We are now equipped with countless tools to help our GSD channel her energy in constructive ways that benefit the whole family. They work wonders here!
