About The Crafty Pup Dog Training

The Crafty Pup was created to educate people how to properly train their dog! Focused on building a strong foundation of Basic Obedience I specialize in training puppies and dogs to fit into your lifestlye! I approach training different than most - I use all praise and no treats thus resulting in your dog listening to YOU and not performing commands for food! I can train your dog to do anything you need but my emphasis is giving you the best trained dog in the neighborhood. One that walks nicely, performs each command on the first attempt, doesn't jump on your guests and comes off leash when called on the first command! I believe A Well Trained Dog Starts With A Well Trained Owner!

My 8 year old puppy, Kelsey, and I could not have had a better training experience than we did with Jimmy. Kelsey, a rambunctious Lab was not trained at all when we met Jimmy. Because she was overly friendly and fairly hyper my husband did not enjoy being around her. After training she was like a new dog (and my husband was like a new man). I often find my husband and Kelsey curled up on the couch in the man cave or in the bed with Kelsey using my husband’s legs as her pillow. Additionally, I’m no longer being dragged down the street every time Kelsey sees another dog or squirrel. We now enjoy walks together and shopping at Pet’s Mart. Who was it that said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? They were wrong. Kelsey and I highly recommend Jimmy and the Crafty Pup!

Jimmy is an absolute dog whisperer. Walter, my berniedoodle is now so well behaved. Not only does he listen to commands while on leash, but Jimmy also off leash trained Walter. Highly recommend Jimmy’s training!!

Jimmy is the best. His training has exceeded my expectations in terms of just how well my dog behaves after staying with him. Would highly recommend him for anyone looking for dog training.

Jim is the best! He taught us the proper and effective techniques to train our dog. We see a dramatic difference in him following commands and his behavior.

Jim is amazing ! My six month old puppy is amazing because of Jim’s training! People are in awe of my puppy’s recall! Treat yourself and your pup to this trading to create a bond that lasts forever!
