I am on a fixed income and have a puppy who is 10 months old she is St. Bernard and great Dane. She is in need of training to learn to not jump up on people to walk beside me when being letc. my question is how long approximately what it takes
Hi Lynne, how long training takes to resolve behavioral issues and teach better behaviors depends largely on the owner and their ability to successfully practice what we teach. Sometimes things happen quickly, sometimes it takes longer. It all depends upon you.

Jeff is an amazing trainer tinkerbell and Batman loved working with Jeff and they as well as I wish we could hire Jeff for all our naughty neighborhood dogs but it would be way to far of a distance and would be impossible to do because we have so many naughty neighbors he helped tink learn happy rolls and helped Batman through his crazy puppy hood as well as helped us all recover from the domestic violence situation which was the main reason we hired him. In the six years I’ve had tink all my friends are amazed by the transformation she made especially our friend who recommended Jeff because she saw the amazing work he did at sunny skies animal rescue tinks place of birth and everyone loves Batman regardless but tink was the one many feared because she feared due to the training she got as a puppy at family dog a place that uses negative reinforcement vs positive but her and I can do lovely hikes and beach adventures. With them both even and she has no anxiety. And they mean they wish they could hire Jeff for all their friends who escape their yards and get in lots of trouble in our neighborhood so much so we know every dog by name after returning them.

Jeff is wonderful! He has worked with both of my dogs on fear based leash reactivity and barrier reactivity. Through his 9 week program, he taught us invaluable lessons on how to help our dogs in fear provoking situations. I high recommend Jeff as he is very professional, knowledgeable, responsive and kind. He treats your dogs like his own!

My mom volunteers at our local rescue. The rescue has used Jeff countless times to help out with the training, and volunteers his own time to helping dogs succeed in finding a forever home. He works with dogs of ALL behaviors, and I have seen first hand, the wonders and positive outcomes of his trainings.
I took on a foster dog from California. She showed physical and emotional signs of previous abuse. She was very afraid of men. Without Jeff's guidance and expert knowledge, I would have never figured out how to pin point her "trigger" points - the reason that she is so fearful.
I have built so much trust with our rescue girl, that she has learned to love and adore my husband. These are HUGE steps for her, considering her fearful past.
I would recommend Jeff whole heartedly!! He is worth every penny!

We had our three dogs train with Rocky Junior Dog Training. Jeff was reliable, respectful and a top notch professional. He is worth every penny. We particularly enjoyed his honesty and deep love for our pets.

We received a fear reactive dog into our foster home who was at the point of deciding if euthanasia was the way to go due to the humans who failed him in his life. We could not sort out the behavior this dog was displaying (most dogs have a trigger, but what was his?). The dog had been burned with a shock collar, which we also presumed led to some neurological issues for being shocked that high/long. With Jeff's assistance, expertise and guidance in force-free training we were able to assimilate the dog into normal dog living and he has been happy ever since- for years now. He was adopted by a couple with full disclosure and has not had a single incident, he goes boating, and into his people's office now. To even begin to describe the tremendous amount of success this case was would be nearly impossible. Jeff is very open and honest about everything he has going on so that you as a client can be understanding. The empirical evidence of all the success stories should speak volumes of his methods.
