It's unfortunate that you are receiving fake 1☆ reviews from triggered strangers on tiktok. I have watched you train, I have watched you interact with many dogs, and I've watched the videos you share on tiktok. Many will argue that you yell, that is true. But I have also watched you talk quietly and at a normal speaking range. Regardless of volume, the results are the same. Many dog's are high energy, and that goes the same for people. Some people have way more energy, then the rest. Some individuals are naturally loud, some are quiet. Just because your way of training may be unorthodox to other's. That doesn't mean it's wrong. What works for someone else, may not work for you. Yet you're being attacked with fake reviews. Sadly people judge you from one interaction on tiktok. Yet looking at your REAL 5☆ reviews. The majority is left by WOMEN. That in itself, speaks volumes, and tells me all I need to know. I hope my 5☆ review may help you, and at the very least, I hope it opens the eyes of future clients. Keep doing what you're doing Nick, don't let the trolls get you down.🤙🏽

Amazing value. Great price, great training (for both us and the dog), very professional and responsive. Great balance between reward and correction. Our dog likes and respects him. He is encouraging and clear in his direction. We highly recommend him and his services!

We have 2 Old English Sheep Dogs puppies and we would like to share our experience Our puppies were in a destructive mood and literally not listening any basic obedience commands but everything changed since the moment we started working with Nick From the very first time we noticed Nick’s knowledge and experience in this kind of situation, he answered our questions and created a detailed plan of the steps to follow in order to improve and correct the behavior of the puppies Nick has some kind of charisma and definitely a lot of experience with dogs, he listened to us and understood our frustrations The puppies are basically our kids and we want the best for them We noticed right after our first session how much the puppies have improved, we are really happy with Nick and will keep working with him until we achieve our goals with our lovely puppies We highly recommend Nick, he really knows what he is doing 👍 We will see you soon for our next session with the puppies

Dogs responded well to him. 4 month old puppy sitting after first visit. Was training our 5 year old and 4 month old during same visit. On time and communication excellent. Works on weekends which is convenient.

Nick is absolutely wonderful! In two meetings with our German shepherd the knowledge he’s given a first time shepherd owner like me has been unimaginably helpful. The techniques he uses and recommends have really begun to show a difference in my dog’s behavior. His suggestions are knowledgeable, and you can really tell he truly cares about every dog that he trains. My dog likes him, and my wife and I couldn’t be more pleased with the progress shown by our dog so early already. I will 100% be recommending him to anyone I know that needs a dog trainer, a few brush up tips, or first time dog owners with no idea what to do.
