David was great. Our dog really loved it there. As a bonus our dog got some training sessions in that were included. Can’t beat that! We’ll definitely use him again.

David has been absolutely amazing with our challenging dog, and under challenging circumstances. We did a board and train while on vacation, and he sent pics and videos while we were gone to illustrate the remarkable progress in skills that took place in only a matter of days, from leash training to general obedience to reactivity. David has been wonderful with our dog and you can see the true care he has for him and his progress. We feel fortunate to have found him. Highly recommend!

David was great with my hyperactive dog. Sent lots of videos and showed us how well behaved he can really be. We will definitely use him again. He was very knowledgeable and loving toward our energetic pet.
