Our puppy is 2 weeks into into Gordon’s 5-week program and we could not be more pleased with Gordon and with our pup’s progress. Gordon knows what he is doing and his organization makes every session productive and more importantly, the trainings to do on your own easy and fun. He’s very personable and cares about his clients, both the pup and the person. The two sessions a week with Gordon are the highlights of mine and my puppy’s week.
I enjoy helping people better understand their dogs, and specialize in teaching people how to better communicate with their dogs. I tailor my training to meet the goals you have for your dog. Services: * Private Dog Training (in your home or at a park) * Puppy Training (in your home) * Behavior Modification (in your home)

We have used "Pawsitive K9 Solutions (Animal Magnetism)" for dog walking services while we were out of town or had work conflicts and we were very happy with the level of care and attention our dog received. They were reliable and professional and we will definitely use them again when the need arises.
Imagine a life where your dog listens to you not just in the quiet of your home but in the excitement of the park, the bustle of a shopping mall, or the open space of a beach. At Omega Paws, we believe obedience is more than just teaching basic commands—it's about creating a lifelong partnership between you and your dog, built on trust, respect, and mutual understanding. Our board and train program goes beyond the basics, transforming your dog into an off-leash, reliable companion who is well-mannered and adaptable to any situation.

We are a small business in the Bay Area. Our goal is to help you create an easy communication system between you and your furry friend. We believe in teaching your dog a language that you both can understand. This is a vital step in the training process. Along with a balanced approach, safe social interactions and the proper mind set. We believe any dog is capable of learning new behaviors, and yes even an old dog can learn new tricks too!

Jordynn was great with Zoey! Our girl was a rescue with tons of anxiety with practically no etiquete / manners. Jordynn helped her work through a number of concerns from potty training, barking / whining, social interactions and so on. We really loved the open line of communication and daily updates of her progress. 10/10 would recommend to anyone feeling hopeless with their dog and behaviors.

My dog Ozzy was experiencing leash aggression, barking frequently at random noises, and had high levels of anxiety. Lori helped me realize the importance of establishing leadership and boundaries in the household and on walks. After the first session I noticed a huge difference in his behavior and major improvements after more sessions! I have a completely different dog: calm, respectful, obedient, and quiet. I highly recommend Lori for all of your training needs.

BBefore Buddy Paws my 2 puppy German Shepards were very uncontrollable and hyper and they would always charge and jump on us. They also had food agression and would eat each other's food. I had to feed them separately or they would end up fighting. And walking them was a nightmare.
After just 14 sessions, amazingly both Shepards are now calm and also obey on command. On just the first session alone there was an amazing transformation. Dog trainer Raul is amazing!!

Gary is the absolute best! I refer to him as “the Dog Wisperer“. My little Zoey was so anxious, barked at everything, did not want to follow directions, and nipped at anyone who came into the house. After just a couple of sessions I saw a HUGE improvement! Now that we are coming to the end of our training, she is a whole new dog! She is calm, welcoming to visitors, follows command, and is no longer as anxious in new surroundings! I highly recommend Gary for all of your training needs! He is kind, professional, experienced, and effective! Thanks Gary! Cheers!
My 22 years of experience will allow you to experience effective, common sense dog training solutions that set you up for success.

Kaitlyn, was amazing !! She was beyond responsive , loving and so patient with us new dog parents and our puppers . Our dog beau had an amazing 4 weeks with her , we received several pictures, videos along with getting to watch 3 sessions of her training beau. He went in at 8 weeks and came back very well mannered . Would most definitely recommend K9kickstart extremely happy with her dedication.
New business in the USA (May 2023), I was a marine animal trainer in South Africa for 27 years. Customized private dog training just for your needs! Force free, positive and relationship building. No behavior is bad - just unwanted. I help you to get the best out of your dog. I can help with the counter surfer, the incessant barker, the leash puller in the kindest way. I would love to work with you and your whole family, please give me a call to discuss your training needs.
For 15 years I have had the pleasure of training dogs in all capacities - for TV/movie sets, service dogs, scent work, therapy dogs and pup lovers such as yourself worldwide. I believe training should be an enjoyable experience for both you and your dog. The more you understand about how your dog thinks and learns, the more effectively you can communicate. Clear communication means successful training and good behavior—with no need for coercion or physical corrections.

Clarkes K9 has been a life saver for our German Shepherd puppy.
Justin is an amazing trainer with so much patience and love for pups. Boarded my pup here for an intensive 5 week training which worked wonders for our rose. Their socialization class is amazing, as well as a wonderful opportunity for puppies to learn focus around controlled distractions. Wouldn’t know what we’d do without Clarkes K9. Looking forward to continue having Justin be a big part of our pup’s growth!

I can't say enough positive thing there wouldn't be the space. The enthusiasm and focus that Tiffany had for my specific family my every need was amazing. I thought differently about training in the past but this energy thing that Tiffany does it's too hard to explain and words but not only did she focus on my dog my family member Thor has not only modified his behavior but has changed our families perspective on even the way we treat each other it's amazing definitely five stars
Our Philosophy - There are a multitude of training styles, methods, and philosophies out there, all of which have their pros and cons. Our philosophy is simple. It takes a balanced technique to create a balanced dog. As in any relationship, good communication is essential! Your relationship with your dog is likewise hinged on your ability to understand your dog, and for your dog to understand you.
Rohan Tandon
A few months ago I took my dogs Wrigley & Ducky to meet with The Dog Wizard Milpitas for dog training and I highly recommend their services. The trainer treated my two fur babies with an incredible level of care. They’re fantastic, have a deep passion for dogs, and it shows. It was evident from the start that they’ve had lots of experience with pets and understand dog psychology very well. What sets them apart is their ability to provide tips for necessary exercise and mental stimulation to keep them engaged and happy. It’s also good for dog’s socialization. You can trust them to provide your dog with the same level of care and attention that they provided my dogs with.
We value each dog as an individual and approach every training program in a customized manner. We value our customers and their time, as well as their financial investment in us!

Highly recommend Jayce and Atticus for any kind of dog training. They went above and beyond for our german shephard/ husky, Oso. We were at the point where we could not leave him home alone without him trying to escape or leave something damaged. Now, we can leave him home with a peace a mind that he will be at our house without leaving any damage. We also were not able to have him off leash due to the likely chance he would not listen and come back. He now has excellent recall and does amazing off leash. Thank you so much for all your help! We appreciate it!

What I love most about dog training are the results I bring. Dogs are something I truly understand and bringing people closer to their pup is the best feeling ever. Plus meeting new people and new challenges is definitely something I love going after and accomplishing.
I started dog training by accident. I gotta my friends dog to listen to me and learn everything I taught him and they brought it to my attention that I should try being a dog tinder and here I am lol
I am the trainer to go with because I actually take my jobs seriously and I am guaranteed to bring results no matter what. I have never come across a dog I couldn’t get to follow directions and I’ve had dogs that were aggressive even towards me when I first met them and not socialize at all. Now they play and get song with other dogs just fine. I always hear “my dog has never done that before” and “Thank you so much. You changed our lives” from people that were about to give up and get rid of their dog.
I can provide services from phone or in person. I would much rather be hands on.
I always take covid tests just to make sure I do not have anything going on with me. So
everybody can be safe.
