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.

I called Phil to enquire about dog training for my Great Dane, Lab and Pug who had started fighting recently. He gave me an entire lesson over the phone for free. Easy to understand tips and guidance that I immediately tried. To be honest I thought yeah right in some of what he told me but so far it’s worked and been successful with all 3!! Even more he called me a few days later to check in and again spent time listening to my concerns and gave me further directions that I will be using!!! I will absolutely be going back to Phil for a home training visit in the future! Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND for anyone looking for training.

I had been looking for a dog trainer to assist us with our deaf puppy.When we first got Zeke we did not know he was deaf .Once we had our suspicions confirmed I began to teach him sign language .He is a loving dog but he would run out of his crate and almost knock you over .He jumped on everyone , and he loved to counter surf and pull things down .He also pulled when we walked him . I saw a sign advertising Phil’s Dog Training and the rest is history .Phil taught us how to teach Zeke to sit and not exit his crate until he was Instructed Now Zeke sits and waits until the door is open and I give him the ok to leave .We also learned how to walk with him at our side,no pulling .Phil also taught us how to teach Zeke to get down and how to let us get something from his mouth without biting .It is rare now that Zeke will jump up at us .Phil’s training empowered us to be able take control of Zeke.We recommend Phil 100%.We learned you must be serous about training your dog and putting in the work ,and of course ,you need a good trainer .Give Phil a call ..

Phil knows what he is doing. My 13 week old puppy is a totally different dog after 1 hour with him. Now it is up to me to follow thru and that is important to mention. I would HIGHLY recommend time with Phil if you want a well behaved dog. Looking forward to future sessions with him.

After one lesson with Phil we picked up a lot that we were doing wrong we now have a better trained dog and a happier owner
