Premier Pack Dog Training and Behavior Solutions

We sent our 1 year old female Doberman to Eric for a couple of different reasons. She was extremely leash reactive, reactive to other dogs and becoming increasingly reactive to people. We came to the point of avoiding inviting people over and taking her out in public. She ran our world and it became exhausting. When she returned she was a different dog. She listens to commands and follows leadership. Walks incredibly well on the leash, there have been multiple times I’ve dropped her leash and she stays right next to me. The past month we’ve had her back has been excellent. However, the biggest test of her training and skills came on a trip to Grand Haven, MI over a holiday weekend. She sat with us at outdoor dining, navigated large crowds, and walked past many many dogs. Not once did she bark at anyone, stayed in her heal, and followed our lead. We received so many compliments about her (sadly a new experience for us)!! Thanks to Eric, her world has opened up and we now have the tools to continue working with her. We are excited for our future and cannot believe the incredible progress she has already made! Cannot recommend Eric enough, by far the best investment we have made for her!

Took me a bit to write a review, but thank you to Eric for working with Ardyn (standard poodle of 4yrs). As of this review, Ardyn and I have went to dog-friendly stores (with do, to an art fair in Plymouth, and on a few weekend trail/hikes that, prior to the training, we would never have been able to do. Ardyn is/was reactive and before, I couldn't take her into stores due to her constant barking and lunging at people. In fact, I couldn't even stop to speak to people, because Ardyn would just bark/lunge. I couldn't take her anywhere and had to plan my schedule around her. It wasn't a great life for her (or me) so that is why I reached out to Eric. Honestly, I am impressed. I did have my doubts (as no one else before Eric could help Ardyn) but I am very happy with the results. I look forward to long walks now at any time instead of planning walks at 5:30 am to avoid people/other dogs. I can now speak to people during these walks with Ardyn sitting and waiting or walking calmly beside me, and if we run into another dog in the walk or trial, she is still OK! No barking or lunging at the other dog/person. So the training is worth it. I know Arydn was a "weird" dog, but you (Eric) did an excellent job with her and she is listening and responding well to the training and I am keeping it up. Appreciate it!

Thank you to Eric for giving our dog and us such a better life! We couldn’t take him on walks, have company, or even take our dog out to go potty without being stressed to the max with non stop barking and aggressive behavior. Now, he calmly walks next to us, we pass people and dogs with no problems at all, we had a pool party today and he was able to walk around and even interact with the guests with no barking! Before he would’ve had to be crated and would’ve been barking the entire time. He has also stopped sniffing around the house looking for a place to mark because he’s not stressed out anymore. We have had him back for a week and are following Eric’s instructions closely to ensure many wonderful years ahead with our dog. We are beyond thankful.
