Highly recommend Zack! He was amazing helping us better train our 2 year old Frenchie (who is quite stubborn!). Our dog’s demeanor, listening skills, and overall behavior has really improved following in home lessons!

About Underdog Universe Dog Training
I am a lifelong dog owner and dedicated dog trainer. I founded Underdog Universe with the goal of helping to create better communication between all dogs and their owners. Establishing proper communication with your dog takes practice and knowledge; my job is not to teach your dog how to listen to me…it’s to teach YOU how to become the best communicator and leader for your dog. I also offer therapy dog training and certification.

We found Zack at just the right time. We adopted 2 small brothers that are sweet and loving, but also full of energy that was getting them into trouble and making us crazy. Within a few lessons our stress level went down. The puppies are much more behaved and on their way to being well trained, happy dogs. I met Zack as he was leaving a neighborhood families home, and they spoke so highly of Zack that we jumped on board immediately. If you are looking for training support, Zack is the right choice.

We have used Zack to get some training for our hell hound Jojo... she needed some help with manners, and being able to comfortably walk on a leash. We have had 2 sessions with Zack so far out of 8, and have already seen some really great progress. We took Jojo to another trainer, who was a chain, and she hated working with them... their methods were to shock her when she was bad, and she did not respond to that. Zack uses a much more tactical approach that our Poodle responds to much better. She is on her way to being a much more behaved and well-mannered girl.
Zack, is incredible! Best decision we have ever made. My daughter moved home from VA with a 6 month old lab. He went from dragging me around the neighborhood and jumping on people to completely obeying and listening to all commands given. Zack is very patient, kind, and knowledgeable. Zach knows his stuff! He wants you and your pet to succeed! DO IT… Thanks, Zack!

Zack, is truly a miracle worker. I have a black lab that just turned one this September. My dog was pulling us down the road and not listening to commands. I have always wanted a therapy dog and Zack made that possible. He provides you with all of the necessary trainings and tools to make every session 100% worth it. Bruner is now a therapy dog in just a few months... Thanks to Zach. People in our neighborhood are so impressed and our constantly asking who trained Bruner. Highly recommend this! I would do it again and again.
