I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Manuel Martinez as an exceptional dog trainer. Over the course of 4 weeks I had the pleasure of working and watching Manuel as he addressed specific training needs such as behavioral issues, focusing and obedience issues with Belia. The results have been a great beginning for Belia.
Manuel greeted us as we arrived, to inquire more about enrolling Belia in Humble Paws training. Manuel answered our questions honestly and assured us that Belia would be well trained and taken care of. The staff and administrative manager were all very kind, compassionate and polite.
Manuel possesses an in depth understanding of canine behavior, coupled with a compassionate and patient approach. He tailored the training methods to suit Belia's personality and needs ensuring a positive experience for all of us. For instance Belia struggled with leash pulling and within a few sessions she was walking with us, we saw significant improvement and she is happier today.
Beyond his technical expertise Manuel is a professional, reliable and passionate about his work. He not only trained Belia but also equipped my husband and I with the tools and knowledge to reinforce the training at home, fostering a stronger bond between all of us.
I am confident that Manuel Martinez would be an asset to anyone seeking a skilled and dedicated dog trainer.
Sincerely,
Gregory & Bridget Ballard-Cummins

Manuel and the whole team are amazing. We had done some group and private training previously but our dog was nearing two years old and starting to get more separation anxiety, fearful, and especially anxious and lunging/barking on the leash. Manny is a natural with dogs and he is always calm and professional, we truly knew he wanted the best outcome for us and our pup! He made us feel like one of the family and was always there to go the extra mile and problem solve. We would highly recommend Humble paws for obedience training, specific problem areas, and anything an owner/pup could need. Manny can do it all! Thanks so much and we appreciate all of your training and support.

Recently moved to CO and needed a daycare spot for our high energy belgian shepherd mix. They were prompt and professional when making a reservation and answering all our questions. Ray had a great time, we could tell from the pictures and video they sent us. We'll be back soon. Thanks!

We loved getting the daily videos and updates on Precious. It really assured us that our pup was being well taking care of. Thank you for being so accommodating with our schedule. Thanks for washing all of Precious's bedding. Shout out to Benito for all your help during check in. Precious is so tired and happy to be home.

I sent my puppy Sierra to Humble Paws for reactive dog training. She wasn't mean, just barked at everything. Other dogs, people , nothing when we went out side, people walking going down the streets while we were driving so frustrating. Now with help from Manuel and his crew she is 90 percent better (a work in progress) they also had to train me to be better on focusing on my training and attention to detail on what I was doing wrong. 2 weeks from now she goes to pass her her canine good citizen class for service dog, and then soon follow in her sisters foot steps for theraphy dog work at the hospital. Thank-you all at Humble Paws for helping us. 100% success!!! Love you all!!!
