This review is long overdue! If you need help with your dog, or puppy like I did STOP, DROP and BOOK asap!!! Paul is literally the best Dog trainer, meeting Paul provided the intervention I needed. Have you watched Cesar Milan, or Victoria Stilwell, (check on YouTube) 1 session with Paul is like that. I was on the verge of rehoming my puppy, because I simply lacked the basics. Paul teaches you the fundamentals to train your dog forever in 1 session, isn't that crazy! Most trainers tell you, you need 6-10 or even more, but with Paul there's no catch, there's no agenda outside of helping you develop the skills to have a great relationship with your dog. Explaining my situation to Paul he offered to come out asap to help us. My Pup Update: I met Paul last year early December, my mental health was in the gutter, and I was spiraling, I felt I had failed my dog at socializing her because Aurora started to bark at strangers. In one session with Paul I learned how to train my Pup to achieve any behavioral change through positive reinforcement, to live our productively. The "ahaaa moment" clicked and we have been consistent ever since. Today is February 1st, Aurora will be 1 year old on February 6th, and thanks to meeting Paul, I gained so much confidence overtime, and Aurora no longer barks at strangers, she's a confident girl now, who tolerates strangers when she's scared with a low bellowing bark sound to signal at me, and not them, and she doesn't outright bark at people anymore. Being consistent with what we learned we have improved so much. I can recommend Paul enough. Thanks so much Paul you are the best thing that happened to me and Aurora we appreciate you!!!!!!!

Our little Stoney has been dealing with some dog reactivity as she adjusts to the city. Paul was so great about working with her and helping coach us on how to help her with recall, loose leash walking, general manners, and ultimately how to set her up for success. In just 2 hours we saw a lot of progress and over the past week she’s already taken to the methods incredibly well. Would recommend Paul for any of your dog training needs!

Very good experience to work with Paul and his professional attitude and knowledge really helped my 4mo pup who showed many signs of separation anxiety, which is really not something as easy to deal with as teaching him basic commands. I mainly trained my dog myself, most things went well, but for problems like separation anxiety, I do recommend all dog owner whose dogs have the same issue to get some professional help and advice since it could improve significantly. Paul analyzed my pup’s behavior and the arrangements of his crate, playpen and feeding bowls in my place, and helped to adjust some of them. He also patiently helped to train my pup to get used to people leaving and coming back. After our training session, now my pup sleeping in his crate alone quietly. And mostly importantly, as a dog owner, I feel like I have better mentality and more patience to deal with his anxiety after talking with some expert which is quite important for some long-term tedious training.

I’m so glad I decided to look for a dog trainer and connected with Paul from Sedona Trainer. He was incredibly prompt in responding and came to help us the very same day! Paul was patient and reassuring, emphasizing that our dog is already great but just needed a few adjustments—and so did we! We started putting what we learned into practice that same day, and we’re thrilled to see results already. If you’re considering help with your “fur”ever family member, don’t hesitate to reach out to Paul.

After talking with Paul on the phone, I felt he would be a good fit for me and my boys, one full pittie and one pittie mix who are reactive to dogs and people with some separation anxiety. It was a 2 hour session and I learned so much about how to address issues like redirecting before they get to an overly anxious state and positive reinforcement. I needed the training as well! I will definitely be working with Paul again just to keep my training up as well as theirs and going for walks in the park, something I never thought would be possible before we worked with Paul. So impressive that he had them in a calm relaxed state within a short time of meeting them

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Price listed is an estimate, each dog is different but I will work within your budget. We can discuss payment plans. Please reach out for more info on pricing. Thanks!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask my clients what their goals are and the behaviors they need adjusted for their pups. My goal is to help you and your dog have a better life together! :)
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was always fearful of dogs growing up. A bite at a young age left me traumatized, and since then, I avoided dogs for years, missing out on countless experiences. I never believed I could overcome this fear and love dogs again. Then Sedona arrived and changed my life forever. Our start was rocky, but she helped me conquer my fear. She stood by me at my lowest and celebrated my best moments. She taught me so much about dogs. She was my sister and best friend. Our beloved Shih Tzu, Sedona, passed away a few years ago. I promised her that I would help as many animals as I can until we meet again. This is dedicated to her and all the dogs I hope to help. Thank you for reading this. Please take care of your fur baby. A heartfelt thank you to my family and friends who supported Sedona's and my dream! :)
