Steve saved my relationship with my pup. I was completely frustrated with some of his behaviors, but Steve showed me how changing my own reactions made an incredible difference. I saw the difference immediately and couldn’t be happier! I will definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a better relationship with their pet.

Details: 6 - 12 months old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • Private lessons • General obedience training • Leash pulling • Biting • Chewing • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Steve came to help my husband and I out with a few issues we were having with our two rescue dogs. He far surpassed our expectations! He was extremely knowledgeable, informative, patient and professional and our dogs responded to him quickly and favorably due to his calming demeanor. Our session with him did not end until he was certain that we were satisfied and felt comfortable with EVERYTHING we had gone over together. Most importantly, we have already seen changes in both of their behaviors in the first day of applying his training methods. If you are looking to grow your bond with your dog and are having some challenges along the way, Steve is definitely the man for the job!!!

Details: 1 - 2 years old • Medium (26 - 40 lbs) • Private lessons • General obedience training • Leash pulling • My home, venue, etc.

My wife and I cannot say enough good things about the work that Steve did with our eight-month-old dog. It was all common sense training explained to us simply and effectively. We saw the benefits of this training the very next day, we highly recommend Steve to anyone that is looking for common sense training for their pets. His on location analysis of our animal’s actions and our corresponding behaviors was key to our modifying our interaction with our dog.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I decided to look into a dog trainer for my older dog. Steve was very professional and knowledgeable. He was patient with both myself and my dogs. I think the information and techniques he shared will make a huge difference in our daily lives. You can tell he really loves dogs and enjoys what he is doing. I am extremely grateful for his service and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for assistance.

Details: 2 - 10 years old • Extra large (70+ lbs) • Private lessons • Aggressive behavior modification • Barking • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The methods I share with you are so effective and easy to follow that in many cases one visit is all that is needed PLUS I offer free LIFETIME SUPPORT! I do of course offer other packages if additional guidance and one on one time would interest you.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I visit you and your dogs in your home and work with you for 2-3 hours to show you the techniques and methods to gain your dogs trust and respect. This is the foundation that is needed before training/showing your dogs how we would like them to behave. I will also show you specific training techniques based on what issues you face.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have taken an extensive dog Behaviorist Course. The course took about a year to complete. I received my Certification and am a Certified Dog trainer and Behaviorist from the Dog Training Academy.
