Armin Winkler is the most knowledgeable dog trainer I have ever encountered in the last 50 years. His accomplishments with K9s in actual operational environments military and law enforcement, are unparalleled. The results speak for themselves. If you avail yourself early enough he will avoid problems, and if you already have issues, there is no one like him that can better resolve them. He is uncanny at being able to get inside the head of the dog and approach each dog as an individual. There is literally no one better.

Tazzie & Arman are one of the best trainers in Virginia. I have a nine month year old German Shepherd who’s been going to them since he was a puppy. And I cannot tell you how much the both of us had excelled. I am so impressed with their training I go two times a week, one for a private lesson and Sunday with the group of experience dog handlers that were trained by these two great trainers.
