Introduction

I have been asked what sets me apart form other Dog Trainers. I believe I get results where others fail. It is very important to my clients that they get their Dog(s) to behave well and become a balanced, loving part of their family. I show my clients how to get a balanced dog through one on one training. All behavioral problems will be addressed and corrected. So many of my clients have taken their Dog(s) to other training centers, or have hired other private trainers and were extremely frustrated because their pets still were exhibiting the behavioral problems that they wanted corrected. The Dog Tamer gets results period. I have been called "a miracle worker" by most of my clients and they are now enjoying calmer, more balanced pets through my training. No Dog is too much for me, BIG or small. To me, there is nothing more satisfying than seeing a transformation in a dogs behavior to a balanced state. It is so enjoying to witness a dog go from a frustrated state of mind and body to a calm canine. To equally view an owners gratification to finally see their beloved pet transform into the pet that they always desired-calm and well balanced. I truly am a dog lover and am 100% devoted to a dogs well being.

Tom is the Dog Whisperer of the East. Our dog Elvis a black lab mix has been trained by Tom ever since he was a puppy. Tom trained us how to care for our dog properly. With all of Tom's knowledge he has helped us understand what we need to do to make Elvis a balanced dog. Elvis was potty trained at 10 weeks. He never chewed on anything. He sits, stays, lays down easily. He's not scared of thunder or fireworks. He's not food or toy possessive. Also we were trained to walk him the right way. Elvis doesn't pull when I walk him at all. Elvis is friendly to dogs and humans alike. Also Elvis has a bunny brother who he loves too even out of the cage. He loves kids and is more than happy to lick your face or shake your hand. Uncle Tom is a household word in our home make him one in yours too. Your dog will thank you for it.

Before The Dog Tamer, my lab/border collie mix was constantly pulling on the leash, invading peoples space by jumping all over them and had complete disrespect for me! After The Dog Tamer, she no longer pulls on our walks, has shown large improvement with her jumping and now shows me respect. She continues to try and get her way, and I continue to change it in a positive way. I've received many compliments about her new behavior on our walks from those who live in the area... "there is the best behaved dog in the complex" was one of them! I thank The Dog Tamer for training me to overcome all the unacceptable behaviors my dog dishes out! And I thank my good friend for referring him to me. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Sincerely, Lillian & Lexi

My family's experience with the Dog Tamer was amazing. I called Tom when my German Sheppherd was about 10mos, in that conversation almost in tear's I told Tom I may have to get rid of her she just was a handful. I had tried another trainer I had bought every training device nothing was working she was jumpy, nippy and severely energetic. Tom had said let me come a few times and I guarantee you'll see a difference. Well within 1 session Bacci was a different dog, we did 3 additional sessions and each time he left i would just say wow how does he do that. Staying on top of Bacci keeping up with all Tom taught us has made it possible to keep her and can't imagine not having her now. Thank You Tom!

Tom watched our dog Flurry for 9 days while we vacationed out-of-state. While Flurry was there, he provided some training as well. We touched base with him, and she was so comfortable staying with him. She adapted so well, and Tom knew just how to handle her personality. When we returned, Flurry was walking so well on her leash, and he showed us how to walk her properly. His tips worked immediately, and we are continuing to use his skills/tips each day. She is an improved dog, and we can't thank Tom enough for all that he has shown us. We love our Flurry, and trusted her with Tom while we were away. He made our vacation more relaxing, and Flurry had no stress while we were gone. We were worried she wouldn't come home. Tom is OUR "Dog Whisperer." Thank you Tom! We recommend him to all.

Tom is great! He has so much knowledge and experience with dog training. We are first time dog owners and Tom has helped us every step of the way. We could not have imagined this process going as smooth and easy as it has. We are convinced that Tom has played a huge role. His continued advice and suggestions are always welcomed and implemented at our home. Our 9month old puppy is so well behaved! Many people who meet him cannot believe how good he is and we attribute this training to Tom. We've learned to respects the dog's needs for boundaries and structure. Tom taught us to think like a dog and not like a human, allowing us to better communicate with our dog. Tom has become a member of our family as well. We highly recommend using him for any of your dog training needs.
