Introduction
Omni Canine knows that inviting a trainer into your life is personal. The right fit is important and that’s what we offer a free evaluation session. We know it’s better to have a dog that wants to work rather than make it work. We walk in the door coaching you and working your dog with a clear goal to fulfill and balance your dog. Our goal is helping clients and dogs. It is not to sell dog training. It is a very personal event allowing a new figure into your dogs life. OmniCanine treats that opportunity with great respect. Our focus is to teach you how to get your dog ready for the real world, so that your dog fits your lifestyle. We use Home Depot, Cabella and any place we can work our dogs. I can teach you and your dog to enjoy quiet enjoyable walks. No pulling or leash reactivity Omni Canine's goal is to teach our clients, dog and owner, to have the best relationship possible. We love seeing the relationship between our clients and their dogs grow. Once a strong working relationship is there, anything is possible.

Couldn’t have asked for more! Mike and I initially connected about a year and a half ago during a time where I was dealing with a divorce and some difficult decisions regarding my beloved Great Dane. His kindness, compassion and wisdom were incredibly valuable through the loss of my beloved pet and I knew when I got a new dog one day I would seek out Mike’s help if he were available. Fast forward a year and a half and I was the proud owner of a Doberman puppy. Having had pretty easygoing dogs in the past I worried about whether I was able to manage the responsibility of owning and caring for my dog (probably some anxiety from remembering the situation with my previous dog) that’s when I remembered Mike. I called him and asked him to honestly assess whether or not I was able to responsibly raise this pup. Once again he was of immense support and comfort and we planned our first session shortly after. During our session, it was there that I had picked to the right person to help me figure this out as he was instantly able to direct my dogs, intense energy and gain his trust. Over the coming weeks, he helped build up my confidence with respect to training my dog, gave me tools to build on the relationship I have with Casanova, which he assured me would help provide the basis for what I needed to be able to successfully raise my puppy to a well adjusted adult and quickly had us engaging in activities out and about, including helping Casanova great a stranger, helping me advocate for my dog, helping me identify my dog, needs it in different situations. Mike taught me the jewels and skills that have allowed me to focus my dog’s energy, the confidence I needed to believe in my own abilities and the experience I needed to provide a sense of competence and an appropriate amount of confidence, with recognition of my limits, in being the best owner again for my Doberman. I can’t think of Mike enough and I know that I will go to him. Should I ever encounter a need. Just yesterday I took Casanova to Lowe’s and received countless comments on how well-behaved he was. I can’t thank Mike enough. And as a bonus, his Belgian malinois is it joy to behold and one of the coolest dogs I have had the joy of meeting

Mike is caring and honest. My dog and I were stuck in a tough situation. Despite being aware of the circumstances, he communicated honestly and respectfully and didn't try to take advantage of me financially. He provided support and helped solidify my decision.

Mike was amazing! He had my dogs walking without pulling within 5 minutes. Had them listening and responding to a simple command “Look!” by the end of our session. He was so professional, easy going and informative I was blown away! He showed me there is hope for my brood. They were different dogs at the end but I know I have much more to learn. Highly recommend!

It has truly been a joy working with OmniCanine. Before the first training session, we talked through our main concerns and goals for our dog, Dannie. We got straight to work the following weekend. Instead of doing everything himself, Mike actually coached me on what to do step by step. He stayed for as long as we needed until we felt confident that we could work on Dannie’s “homework” until the next session. By the end of the second session, I was truly amazed at how far Dannie and I have come in such a short time. Mike is extremely professional, kind, and caring. I would highly recommend him to those who are invested in their dog’s success.

Mike is very knowledgeable about dog training. He worked well with our 6 month old pup, while also sharing advise on things we can continue to work on with him. We will continue to use him!
