I have been training dogs for over 32 years in which time I have trained thousands of dogs of all breeds. The primary goal is always to create and strengthen the bond between the dog and his family. Undesirable behavior in a dog is often caused by misunderstandings.

Great experience! Kevin explains the reasons for why we train this way. We were surprised with how fast Mona picked up what she is supposed to do.

After moving to the city with my 8yr old reactive pitbull, I was afraid my dog was too old to be trained. After just one session with Kevin we saw amazing results. Kevin does a great job explaining why we do certain things. Can’t wait to continue training! More...

Dog Training
Kevin is an exceptional dog trainer—professional, punctual, and highly knowledgeable. Our six-month-old puppy showed remarkable improvement during her first lesson; we could hardly recognize her behavior! Kevin patiently answers all our questions and is flexible with scheduling. We're confident that with his help, we'll achieve all our training goals. Highly recommend! More...

We had our first session with Kevin today and we are very impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. We immediately saw our dog react positively to the training and we are excited to continue the work. Prior to the first session, Kevin’s communication with us was prompt and he was very easy to work with in scheduling our session. More...

Dog Training
Kevin was very knowledgeable and knew what to tell the dogs (Belgian Malinois) and he knew what to do with the dogs and was very comfortable with teaching them and from the get go it seemed like he had a deep understanding in the steps to take on how to teach our dogs and it worked out greatly.

Kevin was great! Previous trainers told me my dog would forever be like this. My dog is 5 and we have seen new behaviors we never thought were possible. Cant thank him enough.
Juan
Kevin is a great instructor we went from having our dog mostly locked up to now free roaming the house in a matter of 6 sessions. He spends most of the time training the owners which seems weird at first but then really sinks in as you learn/understand to communicate with you're pet. We are letting the first batch of training sink in and will definitely call back for some more advanced training in the near future. Thanks again! More...
Debbie & Tony Reiss
It was a wonderful experience working with Kevin he is very Knowledgeable and Professional. Kevin was always available when we needed him. I have a 2 1/2 yr old Rottweiler (Aluna) She jumped on people always was getting into something for attention She was running our house !! We noticed a huge difference after Kevin‘s first visit I would give him 1000 stars. If I could I will recommend him to anybody I meet that is having trouble training their dog. He has made a real Big difference in our household with Aluna. Kevin Showed us how to control her instead of her, controlling us. I cannot say enough, how he has helped us !!! Thank You Kevin You have made Such a Difference !! More...

Kevin is amazing. Called him with our dogs behavioral problems he walked me through his training process clearly. First day of training our dog Henry connected with him and we had immediate results. After Kevin left Henry continued the training with us easily. Thanks to Kevin we are able to keep Henry safe with out him running off or attacking others around us. More...

Kevin was great! We hired him to help our dog get along with our cat and teach the dog obedience skills. It’s the first night and the dog and cat are sleeping in the same room!

Kevin is hands down the best trainer in the world! He has transformed our aggressive bully rescue to a WELL BEHAVED family member who can safely protect our home. His work with our dog Drago was beyond superb! He comes highly recommended if we could give him 1000 star rating we would! And his is extremely affordable! More...

Dog Training
Kevin was extremely professional and accommodating each step of the way of training my puppy. It is evident he has much knowledge and professional experience in the field. His training differs from other dog trainers/puppy classes I have experienced, in the way he trains the dog to focus in on its owner and respect the owner. You can see his training is more like police dog training/more advanced training, which is exactly what I was looking for! More...
Mitchell Gilman
Kevin was very good and I noticed a lot of progress in my dogs behavior after just one session. After each session, my dogs behavior continued to get better. I highly recommend hiring Kevin to train any dog/s. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love when a family and the canine family member get a thorough understanding of what is expected and coexist peacefully.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always thought differently, so this allows me to apply my system without comprising integrity.

Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes. Instructional video, virtual sessions, video review and homework. The steps are all laid out thoroughly.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Training outside when possible and keeping to safe distances. If it unavoidable to be in close quarters then masks will be worn.
Obedience training- All levels
All basic and/ or advanced obedience commands.. This may also include special requests. The idea is to make the dog a full and complete member of the family.
Behavior Modification
The process starts with what the perceived problem is and looks for the causes. After uncovering the cause the issue is dealt with in the most fair and consistent way. Each case is different. The success comes from correcting the issue and then creating a plan to maintain positive behavior moving forward.
Protection Training
Protection training is just another form of advanced obedience that shows the dog when it is appropriate to protect the family and how to identify situations to do so when called upon. An out of control or insecure dog is just a liability. The goal is to never have to be in a situation to need to use the dog in that way so the training includes things to be aware of for overall safety.
Online Obedience Training
The course includes video instructions, virtual personal sessions and evaluation and homework to complete between sessions.
