I have worked with Sal twice over the years and he helped me and my dogs greatly. In the early 2000s I brought my dog Wynne to him, she was a rescue and had some aggression issues - in particular towards other dogs. He helped me to understand her better and helped her get over her fear and anxiety - all while socializing her and learning basic obedience. In 2011 I adopted a dog from out of state and had him shipped to New York from down south. I knew he was good with kids, had some aggression issues towards males and was soon to be euthanized if he wasn't adopted . . . So, I really didn't know what I was getting. When Dooley arrived, I immediately knew I was out of my element. I could barely control him when walking him and he was literally terrified of everything. I immediately called Sal and explained the situation. On the day I brought Dooley out to Sal to be evaluated he tried to attack a visiting trainer Sal was working with! Sal still calmly evaluated Dooley and we enrolled for training. When I left training Dooley was "bomb proof" and 10+ years later he still is. Sal helped me mold a terrified dog into a calm, self assured, intuitive family dog. I could not have asked for a better outcome.Dooley reads situations well and will look to me for guidance when he is unsure of how to respond - he truly is the perfect dog and I know a lot of this stems from the time we put in training with Sal. Here we are years later and I can say I don't 100% agree with Sal's view on specific breeds but if we still lived in the area he would have been the first call I made when we chose to add a new dog to the family. Thank you Sal for your help with Wynne and later Dooley, I will ALWAYS stand by you as a trainer.

I was trained by Sal And his staff when we got our German Shepard George. It was an hour a week with an hour drive to and from his facility. BEST time I ever spent for my dog. It has been a wonderful experience from day one. Sal and his staff were so respectful of me and my dog. I brought George back for a “refresher course” At no charge. When it comes time for a new member of our family, Sal will be my first call. I have had dogs for many years, my biggest regret is that I did not have Sal to train all of them. It was a blessing for us and our dog. My advise. Call Sal. Thank You Sal and Your Staff. Julie and Barbara and George.

I have always been met with professional dedication. My dog started as a puppy and continues to learn. My dog has NEVER been mistreated and I have always been treated with the utmost courtesy and respect. My daughter and I chose K-9 Services Unlimited for their professionalism, dedication and training techniques. Don't believe the naysayers. Wannabe trainers are dangerous. Sal Piazza and Jerod are the real deal.
