FirstBarkNina has taught our puppies and us a lot in the 6 sessions we had with her. Our puppies are progressing each week by utilizing the training methods she taught us. We look forward to the adult dogs they will become.

Nina did an amazing job working with us and our dog Tank! We have a much better understanding of what Tank needs from us as much as what we need from him. She did a fabulous job helping me to work through my own anxieties with owning such a powerful dog after I was bitten several years ago by a friend's dog. We will definitely reach out in the future with any additional training needs!!

I started working with Good Boy and Ben and Becky McGill when my pup was 12 weeks old. I was immediately impressed with the amount of knowledge about behaviors and specifically about shaping dog behaviors. Each weekly session worked on skills learned the previous weeks and before I knew it, Daisy was mastering skills she needed to pass the Canine Good Citizen test. If you want a well behaved dog and need guidance (let's face it, we all do) Get professional help and choose Good Boy. I could not be more pleased with Daisy's success.

The trainers here are AMAZING! They leave you with so much information and practice with your little companion to continue practicing at home. We worked with Ben, the owner of Goodboy! This is a great training program for any dog with any type of dog aggression, and yes, the money is worth it! Oh, and they’ll give you advice on problems that are noticed during sessions (i.e. preventing pulling on lead, not jumping on people when they approach etc.) I will always recommend them!
Goodboy and the McGill family are the best in the business! They’ve taken me and my dog, Cove, from beginner training all the way to advanced in a matter of months. I’ve worked through both their group classes and one on one sessions and have learned so much from both. They are extremely knowledgeable, responsive, adaptive, and reasonably priced. Couldn’t recommend them enough!
