To say this training changed our lives would not be an exaggeration. Before we found Bryan we had already done puppy classes and 2 additional rounds of group classes with our APBT. He learned basic commands, but his size, strength, stubbornness, and increasing reactivity as he entered adolescence became exhausting and worrisome. He is a sweet and friendly dog, but just went bonkers when he saw another dog and sometimes even seeing new people would cause him to lose his mind. Not only was his behavior embarrassing, but he was growing much bigger and stronger than we expected and I simply couldn’t control him. I am not a first time dog owner. This is the fifth dog I have had, but I was clearly in over my head with this pup. After the FIRST session working with Bryan I was able to walk my dog and keep him under control! We have had great success with recall training as well. We even took him to PetSmart yesterday! My husband has repeatedly said, “that’s the best money we ever spent!” Bryan has an extraordinary wealth of knowledge and experience with reactive dogs. He obviously loves dogs and our Gunner is always so excited to see him. Bryan listened to all my questions and concerns and took the time to explain everything. He is patient, friendly, and taught both us and our dog with clear demonstrations, instruction, and feedback. He is responsive to messages and always encouraged us to reach out with questions or concerns between sessions as well as after completing training. Training with Bryan was absolutely the best choice for Gunner and our family!

Bryan had me walking my reactive Cane Corso on a leash with other dogs like a pro! Bryan is effective, knowledgeable, and accomplishes results. He is also very personable and easy to work with. I felt safe with my dog in his care. My son came to visit after not seeing my dog for months and was impressed with how well behaved and calmer she was. I no longer fear taking her on long hikes thanks to this awesome trainer. Thanks Bryan, Deborah

Quit looking for a dog trainer, call Bryan NOW! I was a military veterinarian for 15+ years- I know animal behavior, but I did not know how to teach some obedience things to my 11mo old Rottweiler puppy. Annoying things like not rushing the door when we come inside, staying out of the kitchen when we're cooking, coming when we call him (every time, indoors/outdoors). Bryan was brilliant from the moment he answered the phone. I wanted my whole family on the same page, and he didn't hesitate when I asked if my kids could be involved in the training sessions too. I love that the training was in my home- where I was having the problem. Trust me- I've been a veterinarian for 17 yrs, Bryan knows his stuff, knows dogs, AND he is genuinely a nice and likeable person (someone you'll want to be around). There isn't one, single training modality that works for all dogs- this is why it took me so long to find a trainer - most were hard core for one method, or staunchly against certain methods- i know that there's appropriate applications and situations for all dog training methods and so does Bryan. Like I said, quit looking, just call Bryan. I would trust him in any situation with a dog- pet, service, or working dog. He can handle it, or he'll let you know why he's not your guy .
