He does pure magic. My aussies were horrid. They fed off each other's anxiousness :(. Like pulled my back out on a walk because they randomly lunged at a noise. And they grew up with a different cat and we got a new cat and we were legitimatly afraid for the new cat so she couldn't sleep with us because one aussie was so bad with her sudden movements. We tried multiple different training types with them, from correction collar to pure positive clicker. NOTHING worked as well as his training. We dropped the two high energy anxious babies off together for a day of intense training. The prices were amazing, and the results were even better. He sent us photos and video updates through the day that helped us understand what he was doing and how things worked with his training. Remy and Freya are much less anxious and behave a whole heck of a lot better now. And they are best friends with the cat to the point of grooming her and her grooming them. Is it still a work in progress with their anxiousness? Yes, but we actually feel like we can handle it.

As we came out of the pandemic, we noticed that our Frenchie had become very aggressive towards other dogs and passers by. His aggression escalated when we took him camping, and he snapped at some of our friends. Michael was referred to us by a local rescue group who uses him to work on hard to adopt cases. He worked with Duke, and us, and we saw improvements after just one visit. We implemented his advice during our training walks and have continued to take Duke several times per week for training. We can now walk by strangers and dogs without having the embarrassment of his reactive behavior. We highly recommend Michael and his gentle/calm way of training dogs!
