Introduction
🐾 I train YOU to execute the cues of basic life skills (sit/down, come, leave-it etc.), communicate and coexist in a mutually loving relationship with your canine. Need someone to show you how to get the dog to walk properly or "stay"? I got you covered. I teach positive reinforcement only (Using food is okay but you MUST learn to "fade the lure"). No choke chains or pinch collars...no shock involved! You'll learn to get the dog to respond voluntarily through patience, consistency and positive feedback. I specialize in puppies, 6mos and younger. *Commencement on training depends upon evaluation. Short evaluation is included in 1st session. *Discounts on pkgs. *Cancellation Policy details outlined below in FAQ

I'm very happy I got John's help with training my tripawd Husky-mix Loki. Since training with John Loki is much better behaved and I have a significantly better understanding on how to train my dog as well as how to interpret my dog's behaviors and body language. Before Loki was not getting along well with my two other dogs, both chihuahua-mixes, and now they all get along just fine and I never worry about them together. John was on time for every one of our appointments and genuinely fun to work with. He makes himself available to text at any time if you have any questions or need recommendations on specific dog products which has been a life savor for me. I recommend him to all of my friends who are even considering getting help from a dog trainer.

Even though we are experienced dog owners, John has been a lifesaver for us!!! He has truly listened to all of our training issues, and has gone above and beyond to assist us with each one! He is full of training tips and new ideas that we hadn’t thought of before! Once hired, he instantly becomes available through text… all the time! He is more than willing to answer texts and questions, and help with any problems that might arise!! He is very knowledgeable, positive, and our dogs love him… and so do we!!!! We highly recommend him to even the most experienced dog owners!!!
