Pro-Train Innovative Dog Training

Our dog Bubba is soon to be 8 and we weren't able to take him anywhere without yanking on the leash, sizing up other dogs and barking at anyone or anything that went by our corner home. On one occasion, our sister was walking him and he lunged, pulling her down into the street while her dress flew up, exposing her to the neighbors who stood and watched in horror! Bubba is a family member and we needed him to obey us so we could live peacefully in our home and take him places. Our daughter had already taken her dog to Pro-Train and we needed help. The first week was easy as we were on vacation but when we returned home we decided that, at our first training session, we would take him home as we truly missed him. We arrived to find Bubba a new dog, obedient, happy, following commands. Thanks to the team at Pro-Train SHELL and WAYNE we knew he needed to stay! SHELL knows dogs so well and helped us to learn how to manage Bubba. We always thought when we gave a command that perhaps he didn't hear us but SHELL assured us that he heard and was choosing not to obey. We learned to give a command and wait until he obeys. Upon returning home we vowed to do what we were taught consistently to maintain his behavior. On the very first walk a lady came out to tell us what an obedient dog we had. We explained that he just came from three weeks of intensive training! On another walk the other day, the same lady was outside and saw Bubba obey all commands. She commented, " That training really worked!" We are so happy with Pro-Train and so grateful to the owner MIKE and the staff that trained him. It isn't cheap but you get what you pay for, it's guaranteed for the life of your dog, and will give you peace at home and the ability to take your pet places. We plan to take him back to board whenever we travel as we know he will be taken very good care of! We can't thank you enough Mike, Shell and Wayne!P

We recently got a new puppy, a Great Pyrenees and poodle mix, and were referred to protrain by a friend. We had been using an online training program, which wasn’t working for our situation, as our (very large) puppy was starting to play bite and nip at our kids quite a bit, and jumping up onto people during walks. We went through the puppy management program initially with Shell, who gave us invaluable training tips for our dog. We then realized that it would be best to separate our dog from our kids temporarily to get him trained, though we were so nervous to send him away, and we registered him for the Board and train program. Wayne was an amazing trainer and teacher, and we are so happy we invested in this program! We can now enjoy our dog and bring him everywhere with us. No more biting or nipping, and we are now able to easily train him around our new chickens. I love that we are able to bring him back for free refresher training for life as well!

Pro-Train cured my dog! I adopted a rescue Australian Cattle Dog mix and invested over $1500 in training to address her behavioral problems. She bit me a few times, attacked other dogs, barked non-stop, and was so anxious that she seemed miserable. I worked with other dog behaviorists who helped me manage her behaviors along with putting her on Prozac. However, she was still incredibly dog aggressive and only trusted me. I went through multiple dog sitters because no one could handle her if I ever left town, and walking her was a nightmare if we saw another dog. The last trainer I worked with told me she was unfixable... until I found Pro-Train. They understand dog behavior! I sent my dog there for boarding/training and had several sessions myself with them to learn how to address her behaviors. They taught me her loading cues, how to correct behaviors before they happen, and understand dog pack dynamics. My girl came home a new dog! I got her off Prozac and she is now a happy, relaxed dog that loves life! Thank you for fixing my girl!

Pro-Train has been a huge blessing for our family. Our dog, Reese, is a super smart dog who loves to work. This is great, but also can be very challenging if my wife and I are not handling her correctly. We were at wits end. Reese would often become inconsolable barking and there were triggers around the house (vacuum, ladder, humidifier, etc) that would elicit such an aggressive response that Reese had bit both of us. After taking Reese to ProTrain, she is like a new dog, and my wife and I are like new owners. Mike at ProTrain gave us simple tangible recommendations that have made all the difference at home. You do not need to stress anymore about your dog’s behavior, hoping to find the secret somewhere on the internet. Take your dog to ProTrain, and make sure you do what their trainers tell you to do!
