About
The Always Faithful Dog Training method is designed to maximize the unique communication between you and your dog. Your dog is domesticated, but your pet is also a pack animal. As part of your “pack”, it’s up to you whether your dog leads or follows. Our leadership-based techniques will empower you to be the packleader. Our private in-home lessons will address many common behavioral issues like leash pulling, jumping, barking, digging, and not listening. No Treats, No Clickers, No Shock Collars, NO GIMMICKS Real Training, Real Results NOTE: I do provide Therapy Dog Training, but I DO NOT provide Service Dog Training. Thumbtack combines them as one service. Therapy Dog Training is for taking dogs to help patients at hospitals, kids at schools, seniors at a center, and the like. Service Dog Training is for helping the dog owner on a particular issue they have.

We had a great experience with Always Faithful Dog Training. Monty just completed their beginner obedience program and the results were immediate. The training was structured, practical, and easy to reinforce at home. What stood out most was how well they explained not just what to do, but why it works, which made a big difference in consistency. Monty is more responsive, better behaved, and clearly more confident. The trainers were professional, patient, and genuinely cared about his progress. Communication was clear throughout, and they set realistic expectations. If you’re looking for effective, no nonsense obedience training that actually translates into real life results, I highly recommend them.

Thank you so much, Marlo, for your kind words. Your family has truly been a joy to work with, and it’s been a delight working with Monty. I’m so glad to hear that he’s progressing well—keep up the great work with him!

Deraven, it was my pleasure to help you with your pup Danger. I am glad that I was able to help reverse the damage done by another trainer and allow you to lose the fear of your dog. He is a sweet dog and I know that you and your family will take great care of him. Thank you for trusting me.

Darrin was outstanding. He exceeded my expectations. My dog is much calmer and obedient. I feel confident that I can control her.

Darrin was awesome! I called him for training for my senior dog and he affirmed that what I was currently doing was actually on the right track. He could’ve easily charged me for a session but he didn’t. Thank you for the honesty. If I have any additional hiccups with my dog training I’ll definitely be back to book with Darrin.

Darrin is excellent trainer. We were impressed by his skills and with how much ease he could teach our dog poodle paree. I will highly recommend to Darrin to anyone, who is interested in puppy training or adult dog training.
