He came to Napa and did a combined dog training lesson with my sister and I. He was very good with the dogs and got her crazy 6 month old puppy to learn to lay down within minute. I will be recommending him to anyone looking for a dog trainer.

On time. Considerate of each family member. Very thoughtful explanations and training for both us and our dog. We've been practicing our "homework assignments" and following John's guidance successfully so far. We look forward to continuing over the next 5 months.

Great first day experience. John was thorough, knowledgeable and took the time to talk to us and explain everything. Good teacher :) Glad we decided to get a trainer that is caring and will help us with our dogs.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We work with clients one on one in their home, neighborhood and where ever they want to take the dog. We do discuss and educate clients on dog behavior, dog psychology and how to build the best relationship with your dog, but the one on one hands on coaching is the key to our success in achieving our clients' goals.
