We cannot recommend Dan enough. He's the best they come.

We cannot recommend Dan enough. He's the best they come. He teaches *us* how to train our dog rather than focusing on directly training our dog himself, which is 100x more effective because we're with our pup every day, and Dan isn't (though we wish he could be!). Dan is incredibly effective, supportive, knowledgeable, and generous. We referred him to a friend who also only had glowingly positive things to say. Thank you Dan!!!! So glad to be working with you.

Dan has done a wonderful job working with us and our dog Gus. He teaches you the skills necessary to train your dog long after the sessions are done. We appreciate everything he has done to teach us about positive reinforcement training to raise happy and great pup!

Dan is THE BEST! Much patience and love was devoted to us and our Golden Retriever, Ginger. More than just training her, Dan ensured that we as owners understood the concepts involved. To this day, I still remember Dan's golden rule of the 4 things your dog can be distressed with - It saved me on several occasions!

Our puppy loves Dan, and he taught us a lot in the training. He has very effective solutions to the problems that we are unable to solve: nail clipping, jumping to people, etc. Thanks to Dan, our puppy is well trained compared to many other dogs.

Dan is a wonderful trainer. He is very patient and not only does he train your dog, he also teaches you on how to train your furbaby! I love the fact that he is super responsive, even when I have random questions anytime. Would totally recommend him! He also makes sure to organize pup socials which really help a dog with the socializing skills and you have a lifetime access to those even after the classes end ! It is worth the money to have your pup trained sooner than later ! :)
