Me and my partner had an amazing experience boarding Jud for just under a week! He came back being less reactive, and we were provided really easy ways to continue then training at home! Would definitely recommend!

Pat is my go to dog guy. Always my first choice when it comes to dog behavior questions, training and boarding. He is a true dog psychologist with a deep understanding of dog to dog and human to dog relationships. I am grateful to have found him and only wish I could give more stars. I recommend Pat to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog behavioralist regardless of your dogs history. I am always at ease knowing my pooch is boarding at Pats. Sincerely, Ricky

Working with Pat truly changed our lives with Brooklyn. We came in struggling with reactivity, lunging, protective behaviors, and a high-drive dog we didn’t always feel confident handling. We loved him, but we lacked structure and clarity. Pat gave us both. Having two Belgian Malinois himself, Pat immediately understood Brooklyn’s physiology and drive. He helped us shift from simply rewarding “yes” to also clearly communicating “no” with fairness and consistency. The e-collar became a communication tool, not a punishment. Learning pressure and release, timing, and accountability transformed our walks and our home life. Heel work, place training, and crate structure created neutrality and calm. Brooklyn now understands when to work and when to shut off. We feel safer, more confident, and more in control. We have our freedom back. Pat didn’t just train our dog. He educated us and gave us a framework we can sustain. We’re incredibly grateful.

I was up in arms to say the least. I have 2 female dogs that were at each other to the point of bloodshed. I reached out to Pats Pack in desperation to get help as a last ditvh effort to keep our dogs together. He was so great at explaining why my dogs were doing these behavior and give honest options on how to resolve my issue. To say the least we resolved the issues which has been a HUGE relief for my family. The experience that Pat has definitely shows and his love for the dogs is totally apparent. Thank you for all of your help. If you're looking for someone who really cares and can resolve your issues. He is the one.

Patrick's expertise, patience, and intuitive approach made it completely clear he has a deep understanding of dog psychology, and training. The training was as much about empowering me as it was teaching my dog. I have a well trained dog who is a total joy to take out in public, and the bond we share is stronger than ever. If you are looking for professional, effective, and compassionate training that actually yields results, I cannot recommend Pat's Pack dog training highly enough. They truly are the best in the business!
