About Phil's Dog Training

Serving Central Connecticut Dog training is most effective when it takes place in your home. This is where your dog lives and therefore where most of the behavior issues take place. When I come to your home I can train your dog in a place where he feels comfortable and is not distracted by other dogs. If your puppy or adult dog is having any kind of behavioral issue such as jumping, excessive barking, pulling on walks, eating off the counter, etc. please give me call. Most behavior issues can be addressed with the right correction at the right time. Depending on how much time and effort you put in to it, most dogs learn quickly.

Phil has been a huge help with training our rescue dog, Bunny. From the very first session, he was patient, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He gave us clear, practical steps that we could actually follow at home, and we started seeing improvements right away. As a rescue, Bunny came to us with a few behaviors we needed help understanding and working through. She has already made great progress with commands like heel, wait, sit, and leave it, and she has also become less mouthy with our kids. Phil has helped us better understand her behavior and how to work through issues with the crate, excitement, and reactivity. What we appreciate most is that Phil does not just train the dog—he teaches the entire family how to be consistent and confident. He genuinely cares about Bunny’s progress and has been very supportive throughout the process. We highly recommend Phil to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and effective dog trainer. Five stars!

Phil is fantastic!! We have a 4 month old boxer/lab mix and Phil was able to lead her through several commands. You can tell instantly that he really loves dogs and training is his calling. Thank you!!

I rescued an adult, loveable but strong pittie. Phil explained key concepts to me, showed me how to train my dog and then had me practice. Phil is extremely skilled and I was amazed at the transformation even after one in home lesson. So grateful!

He’s a great dog trainer! Just from one session, I seen a difference with my dog. He’s affordable. I still call him when I have questions or concerns and he’s helpful. I learned a lot from him. We still have work to do, but this trainer is awesome. I’ve tried for so long to correct certain behaviors it feels like a relief. Thank you Mr. Phil!
