The K9 Coach

Neil has been working with our Lowkey, a 1-year old Labrador Retriever/German Shorthaired Pointer mix, and it has been such a pleasure!  The transformation displayed by our dog has been dramatic. He has gone from being a wild crazy man to being a much more calm, QUIET and obedient dog. My family and I look forward to every coming session and it has been incredible watching Lowkey make progress every week. I highly reccommend Neil's services!

Neil has been a lifesaver since getting my puppy, Gatsby. I had been wanting a dog for a long time and 3 months ago I decided to finally go for it. I have had labs all my life, but I’ve never raised/trained one on my own. To put it lightly, Gatsby has a different personality than my previous dogs and loved biting from the first day I got him, add in my mommy syndrome, and after a month I was exhausted and not getting anywhere. I was referred to Neil by a friend and he has not only taught me how to get results from training but has also explained the reason behind every step. He is able to break down the trainings into simple exercises I do with Gatsby every day, and now I get compliments on how well behaved my puppy is for his age. Neil has such a positive energy about training and you can tell that he loves what he does and really cares about the dogs and you can’t help but get excited about it as well. It’s been wonderful to see the progress Gatsby has made, and if I ever hit a wall or get frustrated I know Neil is only a call away to offer support. Not only will I have a confident dog, but going through the process has made me a confident owner so I can enjoy having the dog I’ve wanted for so long.

We are new puppy parents to Luna, a 5-month-old mini-golden doodle. Our pet experience was limited to cats when we brought Luna into our home, and we were completely unprepared for the energy and demands of a puppy. We hired Neil to help train us to help Luna, and we are thrilled with her progress under his direction. Neil is experienced, patient, and fantastic with our puppy. He listened to our concerns and designed a training program to meet our evolving needs. Neil explains his objectives and demonstrates the skills that he is teaching. We still have work to do, and are confident that Neil will be able to guide us to help Luna to continue her growth into a more calm, confident, and well-behaved dog.
