Your Dog Trainer has helped my family for over 25 years. Roger Bortz, his team, and his facility are really the best. They have helped train us and the most important and loyal member of our family; our dog. They do more than train and care for dogs; they will enrich your life.

Roger, the principal trainer at My Dog Trainer, has worked patiently with me and my 3-yr old husky for 5 sessions so far, and I feel like I have a different (better) dog! Importantly, I think the process is more about training ME, and Roger has been clear and patient. He teaches me what to do and then Shiloh and I practice during the week. Shiloh now pays close attention to what I want her to do and her unpredictable aggressive behavior toward other dogs has toned down significantly ~ I think because she is more occupied with how I want her to behave ~ though she’s now more reserved when I’m not around too. We still have more to learn and I really needed to dedicate time to reinforcing good behavior with Shiloh, but it’s paying off. My stubborn, unpredictable, bossy fuzzy-butt seems much happier too. She’s very pleased when she does something right and is praised. I’ve worked with other good trainers, but Roger is the only one who seemed to really connect the dots for Shiloh and me. He’s very nice, super flexible with times, and Shiloh loves to see him!
Amazing!
Roger is clearly a seasoned professional and a great teacher. He was patient and clear about expectations with both our dog and 10-yr-old son. Roger is warm, kind and a great communicator. I would recommend him without reservation.
