5/5

I can’t say enough good things about Chase! My German Shepherd, Ruby, started out wild — no listening, pulling nonstop, and basically running the show. After working with Chase, she’s a completely different dog in the best way. I can take her on walks without feeling stressed, and she even sits calmly while we eat lunch on patios in Scottsdale (something I never thought would happen!). Chase is patient, knowledgeable, and you can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he trains. Ruby adores him, and so do we. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for real results and a trainer who truly knows what he’s doing.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Ruff Rider Training. No where else can you receive precision training through a board and train program all while your dog is also being loved and cared for (like family!). The explanation of training is extremely thorough. I especially enjoyed the follow up meeting to guarantee longevity and effectiveness. My dog knows what we expect now- a process I know would have taken a lot longer had we not done the board and train program with Chase!

Chase is awesome and his program works!! We have really enjoyed working with him and our pup Lucy Lou really enjoys the training as well. With Chase's help, we are able to walk Lucy on and off leash without a second thought and her manors around the house are outstanding as well. I would recommend Ruff Rider Dog Training to anyone that has a dog!!! Thanks for everything!

We had our dog boarded for a week while in costa rica and the boarding and training was top notch. Highly recommended.

Ruff Rider Dog Training was fantastic from start to finish. In just 5 lessons our Jack Russel puppy learned all the basics; how to walk well on a leash, heel, sit, stay, and lay down. The owner Chase is excellent at what he does and it’s easy to see how much he loves training dogs. Can’t recommend enough.
