This review is well overdue, but honestly I haven't quite known how to put it into words how wonderful our experience was with Chris, and how almost 2 years later we are still reaping the benefits. Chris spent 4 weeks with my stubborn (then) 9 year old girl, Stormy, in February of 2022. She had major issues with getting along with other dogs, and after nearly a year of her living with a new dog, Rex, she continued to fight with him. That's when I knew I had to do something, and I put my girl in Chris's hands. He was the perfect fit for her, and got her to where she needed to be with respecting me, my partner, and Rex. She respects and understands the e-collar, she sits & waits patiently for the 'ok' at meal times, but most importantly her and Rex have become best buds. They have so much fun together now and I have had a load of stress lifted off my back. Stormy has turned into quite the lover, and her eyes are softer, and I know this is part due to the work Chris did with her. She is happier and behaves much better. So thank you Chris for the work you did with Stormy, and for teaching us more about dog behaviors. We would highly recommend Chris for anyone who is needing corrective behavior training with their dogs both young or older.

Chris was a perfect fit to train our Australian Shepherd in being the best dog he could be. 2 weeks after having him back home we're delighted to include our dog (STRESS FREE) in our family activities instead of managing chaos with his behaviors coupled with our 4 young children. Chris' method is clear, concise, direct, caring, and very well executed. We were well prepared when our dog came back home and have easily continued his lessons on our own. I highly recommend Chris, "The Dog Trainer" and this experience has exceeded my expectations in every way.

I reached out to them and didn't get a response.

Our sweet Bella was a terror in the neighborhood, distracted by everything, and pulling me to the ground, and on a lot of meds for anxiety. After spending a few weeks with Chris, she is all sweet and gentle through and through. She's support level trained, and I feel like the dog whisperer with her. She no longer needs meds. And walking with her is pure joy.
