Motivated Canine LLC

We can not recommend Motivated Caine enough. They have changed our dog’s life for the better. Bailey used to hate meeting strangers, and after a board and train with Chris and Gabby, we can freely introduce Bailey to new people in our house. She used to be heavily medicated with anti anxiety drugs, and she no longer needs any pills to live her best life. For a FULL idea of what Chris and Gab did for us, check out Bailey on their Instagram! If you need any dog training needs in the surrounding area, Motivated Caine are the people for you!!

I recently took my small (skittish) dog Connor for training sessions with Motivated Canine. They were very informative, gave us tips and we did actual exercises with all the dogs together on how to handle various issues. I was impressed after a couple sessions that my dog was no longer getting overly excited when first seeing the other dogs. He had some leash skills going in that we worked on refining, and I am very pleased with the results!

There are not enough positive adjectives to describe my experience with Motivated Canine. My husband and I have two German shepherds. Our lovable rescue Greta (small pony we lovingly call her at 115 pounds 2 years old) struggled with her anxiety and all new things. She started refusing to use the steps to come inside and go upstairs, she hated walks, going in the car and any change to her routine causing us to put her on medication to try and help her but it just made her drowsy. With a baby on the way we were so worried as our dogs mean everything to us and we wanted her to be more confident and set up for success. Well thank goodness we found a trainer that understood Greta, us and held the same values. We ended up making the choice to board and train. I could not imagine a day without her but Chris’s professionalism, communication and commitment to Greta and her success made all the difference. Chris goes above and beyond and even that doesn’t do him justice and all that he does. Greta is now home, off medication, doing better than we could have expected and his commitment to her success has never wavered or stopped. Checking in, and even though it’s a business it’s truly a passion that he is just best in class at. He creates individualized training plans, he doesn't rush and truly cares for your pet the way you would. I will continue to use him for any pet in the future and recommend him to anyone. You will not find a better trainer out there because the training is in a way secondary it’s all love and care for your fur baby.
