Toby is the best. In just three sessions, he helped completely transform our 4+ year-old dog (and taught us humans how to stay on track!). We highly recommend Toby!

Toby is such an amazing dog trainer! He is so knowledgable about dogs, gives great guidance, and provides organized notes after each session. He worked with me and my boyfriend to train our two dogs to bark less, walk better on a leash together, and reduce aggression towards new guests in our home. His training has made our lives so much easier - I used to have to walk my dogs separately several times a day each, and now I can walk them together and they are much better behaved. We also feel much more comfortable about having guests over, as he helped us reduce our dog's aggressive behavior. We are so grateful for Toby's help, and highly recommend him as a trainer!

5/5
Toby is an amazing trainer. His military training background and knowledge is invaluable, and he is so great about taking all that expertise and making it easily understandable. I thought I was signing up for dog taking, but what I learned was so much more. He educated me on my role as a handler, and I feel confident knowing how to navigate this world with my dog. Highly recommend!!!
