Greg was so patient and fun from day one. I was a nervous wreck meeting him for the first time. The moment he pulled up we went straight into training! My German Shepard is a loving an sweet dog but because I never stepped up as his Leader he took on the weight of the world and because a nervous wreck like his human mom. Greg broke down all of my scared barriers and gave us our lives back. My dog loves him and I love his patience, understanding, and the fun he brings to the table during training. He broke down every step of training and me and my dog started taking it one step at a time. My GS went from barking and lunging at everyone person and dog to walking into Lowe’s and being calm around people. I cannot thank Greg enough for helping me and my dog live a happy and confident life. He not only gave my dog confidence but gave me the confidence to be his leader!

I had my first session with Greg today. He treated me and my dog with the utmost care and respect! I look forward to the rest of our sessions, I learned a lot just in the first one!

Greg is the absolute BEST and I highly recommend Pawsitive K9 Academy!! Greg is extremely patient, knowledgeable and encouraging at all times. He gives you all the tools needed to be successful with your dog(s), and has truly built up my confidence as a dog owner. I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly my golden retriever puppies learned each command, and am impressed with this entire training process. Greg takes time to answer any question or concern, and checks in on us in between sessions, which speaks volume to his passion for helping. He is a genuinely kind person that cares about the success of you and your dog(s). Consistency is key, and Greg makes training enjoyable, which has allowed me to be more consistent. My dogs and I have truly bonded deeply during this training journey, and I feel so lucky to have found a wonderful trainer for my golden retriever girls.

From the first moment Greg met our newly adopted dog, Toby, he began training. We had many challenges to overcome and Greg gave us the tools to be successful. We didn’t know Toby’s history or what he went through before we adopted him. Greg’s intuitiveness with the dogs he trains is priceless. Toby is now well behaved, happy, trusting and confident. Thank you Greg!

Greg was recommended to us from a friend who was thinking of working with him. After my 10 month old Bernese mountain dog/great white pyranees/poodle mix was fixed, we knew it was time to train him. We had started a few commands on our own but really needed some tools to help in other various situations. We hired Greg with Pawsitive K9 and it was a fantastic experience. Greg is patient, informative and very easy to work with. From learning how to put our dog on “place” to teaching how to “heel,” Greg was there every step of the way, and most of the time it was at very weird hours! Many thanks to Greg, we will certainly miss our lessons!
