Tnt Family K9 Academy

I highly recommend training with Lindsey. I can't thank him enough for training a puppy I got from my daughter. My dog is 2 yrs old now and helps me when I fall she also alerts me when ppl are at the door since I don't hear it. My dog stays by my side 24/7 to make sure I'm ok and is there to keep me from falling or there to help me up when I fall. I cam let her outside to use the potty alone since the weather affects me and she'll use it don't bother ppl or other dogs and comes right back in to me. She does so great that my Dr wrote a letter to allow her to stay with me where I'm going since I have to move. My nurse that comes once a week says she's well trained and perfect for me with helping me be safe with my illness. My granddaughter has been able to give commands and control the dog since she was 2 yrs old. My daughter loves the training my dog had and always trying to trade me dogs cause she's so well behaved. His training was well worth the money spent he not only trained the dog but trained me in how to work with my dog. Thank you for helping me out.

Buyer beware, I hired this man to tighten up my dogs obedience, (he knew the commands he was just sloppy about executing them) and work on bite work (for sporting) this is what I received: all dog sports being ridiculed, telling me to hit my dog, lessons spent with my dog locked behind a fence while he smiled cigarettes told stories of how great his dogs and former clients dogs were, and multiple times him disappearing leaving me sitting there staring at my dog behind a fence. This man knowing my dog and another clients dog were dog aggressive and both of us inexperienced put us in a room together and while forcing my dog into a cage allowed my dog to get attacked then yelled at me and the other client for not controlling our dogs. This man also made an older lady client be “a bad guy” toward my dog (had this gone bad my dog would have been put down and I sued)this man taught me nothing, he yelled at me, called me names, belittled me and accused me of not listening when I did something wrong refusing to accept he forgot to teach a particular movement or command. I have no proof but many times during his disappearing acts when he came back his breath smelled of alcohol, his own dogs have alarmed me enough to contact the local ASPCA, and if your a young single female I speak from person experience don’t go alone.

About 4years ago my husband and I brought our doberman Ty into training with Mr. Lindsey. Upon evaluation Lindsey had told us that Ty was too much dog for us but he would do his best with training him to fit our obedience demands for our family. About 8 months into training Ty was not getting any better. He is a very head strong dog and didnt take to training very easily. It had gotten to the point where my husband and I had made a decision to give Ty back to the breeder. The day before we took him back we had informed Mr. Lindsey of what we had chose to do. He had reminded us that he noticed right off the bat that he was a very head strong dog (meaning he needed someone with a FIRM hand at all times). During the conversation Lindsey reassured me that it was not our fault Ty didnt do well but had said it became more aware to him that it was a breeding issue. My family is huge dog lovers and we definetely didnt want to go without a dog. My husband and I loved Mr. Lindsey's shepherds. The bi-color breed, stance, temperment, and training that went into these dogs is apparent as soon as you see them. We had then decided to buy a dog from him. Mr. lindsey will meet with your whole family and chose which dog is lucky enough to become apart of your family. Little did we know the choice he had in store for us!! It was Helga! HIS TOP DOG!! From the moment we brought her home till this day she is the best dog. About a year ago we got the shepherd "itch" and decided we wanted a second shepherd from Lindsey! A week later from that we had brought Delta home! Both these dogs are a huge part of our lives. They go camping with us, run the trails with us while we are on our horses, and even just have a lazy day!! They are trained and ready for anything! They even saved my life a little over a year ago when a burglar broke into my house and they greeted him with some nice protection. :) Chosing TNT Family K9 was the best choice we could have ever made! He is a very gifted and talented trainer. The love that he has for his and other peoples dogs is phenominal. The choice is simple... if you want your dog trained or looking into getting a german shepherd the choice is Mr. Lindsey at TNT Family K9. I hope that my review has helped you in making a good choice because there are alot of trainers out there claiming to be the best. My husband and I were screwed over by almost every dog trainers in that greater cincinnati area until we met Lindsey. He doesn't need to claim he is the best because everyone who has met him knows that HE IS THE BEST!!! :)
