FirstBarkMichael & Annie sure know dogs..... We were given a weeks worth of training in a one hour visit... They are awesome! Our 8 month old "Gibson" & I are looking forward to some training classes with these folks! The pinch collar & the potty tips have made my first month with our new puppy a real delight. Thanks GURUs!

I highly recommend Michael for dog training I have an eight month old puppy and she is generally a well behaved dog. We had just a few issues that we needed to work on (eating goose poop and other items off the ground outside). As soon as Michael entered our house he was giving practical and easy to follow advice on general training. With in a few minutes of trying a new collar he had our pup sitting in the grass, surrounded by goose poop and she was not attempting to eat any of it. He also gave us a few tips on how to hold the leash and use the new collar. She has been perfect! She walks so nicely and we don't have to worry about her grazing. Many of my coworkers recommend him and I have to agree with them. If you have any issues you are concerned about he can help. Michael is very professional and he knows how to train the humans to ensure they have the perfect pet.
