FirstBarkJoe is very knowledgeable and wonderful to work with! We like his approach to training, is easy to get along with, and answers questions completely. He explains things well and corrects and praises appropriately. We have leaned a lot from him in a short amount of time and have seen a welcome change in our puppy. He obviously loves dogs and has a great report with our puppy and us!

I am so lucky to have found West Chester Dog training! Joe has been incredible to work with! We are almost done with our training and the progress we have made is unbelievable! My 10 month old Bernese, Reese was jumping, biting and barking none stop. She still has her moments but to say she’s is a different dog is an understatement. My bond with Reece has grown tremendously as we’ve learned new tricks and been able to go on adventures! Before we started training with Joe, it was a struggle to go on walks and now walking and hiking is our favorite thing to do! I recommend West Chester Dog Training to anyone who is struggling with their dog, it has made such a difference in our lives! We are both happier for it!

We are so grateful for Joe! We were worried about raising a stereotypical “little dog”. Yapping, jumping, growling etc. Upon first meeting Joe he assured us that with some time and a little effort we could have a dog everyone enjoyed. Joe included our whole family. He is patient, thorough, and honest. We are so happy that our little Maltipoo is growing into a pleasant, happy and confident “little dog”.
Working with Joe has completely transformed our dog’s disposition. Before training, our pup was anxious and reactive—but now, he’s calm, content, and genuinely happy.

Working with Joe has completely transformed our dog’s disposition. Before training, our pup was anxious and reactive—but now, he’s calm, content, and genuinely happy. It’s amazing to see how discipline, when applied with care and expertise, can bring out such peace in a dog. Joe is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to work with. He doesn’t just train dogs—he understands them. Every session came with a clear action plan tailored to our dog’s specific needs and behaviors. No matter the situation, Joe had a thoughtful, effective strategy ready to go. We’re beyond grateful for the positive impact Joe has had on our dog and our household. If you’re looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing and cares deeply about your dog’s well-being, Joe is the trainer you want.

Joe has been great to work with! We are in the middle of our sessions and our golden puppy is doing so well! I love how he comes to you and teaches you how to train your dog. It helps to be in your environment, especially with distractions. His approach to walking on the leash is amazing and all the tools he trains both the humans and dog are fantastic. Highly recommend using Joe to train your dog.
