PAWS-ITIVE REVIEWS

We sent our Golden doodle to Jake for the 21 day program, when he left he was wild jumping on people not minding, not listening. When he came back. He was a totally different dog. We were so impressed with Jake and his abilities. Highly recommend him you will not regret using him. Excellent with our dog. Very easy to communicate with as well.

– Kelley T.

Jake was the absolute best with my dachshund, Dottie. I travel every week and I needed a dog that would behave on trips and in hotels and that’s just what I got after Jake finished. I highly recommend him.

– Cindy R.

Jake did an amazing job with my miniature schnauzer, Darby. She was unruly at home and became a different and more behaved dog with Jake. He also provided excellent feedback with texts and videos. He really went above and beyond with her!

– Laura L.

Jake trained our Boston Terrier / Pit mix. I was very skeptical since she was 6 years old at the time, but my wife and I have been amazed at how well the training worked (and still works 2 years later). We are so happy with all the work that Jake did with our dog. I cannot recommend Jake enough.
