We cannot thank Jake enough for the personalized one-on-one training experience we had with our 2 year old pup, Stanley. Learning to understand our dog, what makes him tick, and how to correctly motivate and work with him was incredible. Seeing him thrive as we work on behaviors and responses to the world around him has been so rewarding. We are no longer stressed and worried to go out into public for fear of what we might encounter or how he might react. This training has also been MONUMENTAL in the fact that Stanley no longer needs, or requires, sedative medication to go to the vet. He gets monthly allergy shots and can now attend and participate in those visits with much less stress. Our vet and her team noticed his improved behavior and responses right away. Thank you K9 Optimal Training Solutions for teaching the humans how to have a better understanding of our dog which makes for a deeper and more meaningful bond.
I had a great experience working with Jake and my 4 month old Golden puppy. He offers great flexibility for scheduling one-on-one training that fit into my own busy schedule and was really wonderful to work with. Having a well behaved and happy puppy makes all the difference! We'll definitely be back for more!

We went to Jake in hopes that we could continue to own our rescue Milo. He is amazing with people, but is very reactive to other dogs. A huge struggle since we spend our summers camping. Jake explained everything in a way that made sense and clicked that it was more about training us than training the dog. Mili’s behaviors have drastically improved and we feel confident the growth is because of Jake’s training! Thanks for helping us!
