Brett gives guidance on how to properly train your dog, but it's up to you as a pet parent to continue the training. He's great! If you're on top of it, you'll see results!

We were unable to sustain a change with their methods over the last 2 years. He is a powerful dog and I was very concerned that we would never be able to be in public with him. After 2 sessions with Brett, we attended a class with 25 dogs!! I'm serious. It was incredible. Our dog was completely calm and walked safely in the pack with other dogs large and small. Our previous training encouraged mostly avoidance (which may work for some) but Brett taught us how to intentionally and safely expose him and retrain his responses. Thank you Brett! We have learned a lot and highly recommend your training program. Read Less

She came with some pretty bad leash reactivity. We tried 2 other trainers before Brett and saw little to no improvement. We have now been working with Brett for 2 weeks and it is night and day. We can now take her to the park and even out to eat and she is a calm dog. I can not thank Brett enough for literally changing our lives! Read Less

Read MoreWhen our Jack Russell Terrier was still a puppy, we began to walk her on a leash outside. She would stop and yank, refusing to move, and no matter what we did she acted like she didn’t want to walk with us. This was disheartening because the big reason we got a dog was to have a walking or jogging buddy! We took her to Brett for a consultation. He told us that our puppy didn’t trust us, so she was freezing up on walks. We needed to earn her trust. We went through a 6-session training program with Brett and solved the problem! Not only did Brett show us the way to earn our dog’s trust by demonstrating our leadership, but he showed us how to get her to sit, stay, and come on call. Our dog is very stubborn, but Brett’s methods worked the first time and ever since. She is not the hyper, anxious dog she may have been if we didn’t establish our leadership and inspire her calmness. She is such a good dog. People are AMAZED at how calm, happy and content our JRT is! Read Less

Read MoreThis review is long overdue and I really don't know why I haven't posted sooner. I also want to say I could never have posted and I'm sure in reality it wouldn't make a huge difference, but the fact is this training is still positively impacting my family, so I thought about this once again and had to post. I was a client years back with an adopted pit bull from the shelter and a shih tzu. My pit bull was a young full grown dog and mouthing really bad, even snapping. Today my children feed my dog, he does not mouth at all, walks straight into his kennel, has order and coexists beautiful in our family. We had small children and training was important to us. To this day we are still using what Brett instilled in us, the pet owners. It really has a lot to do with our own behaviors. Thank you Brett! Your training is still appreciated years later. Read Less
Brett is one cool dude! Whenever I get a new dog, he is my go to guy for any dog training and animal behavior advice.

She is still young and full of energy but our experience with Brett has definitely made walks and socialization better. He taught me that consistency is key. We did our sessions at home, workplace, parks, outside of a coffee shop and around heavy pedestrian traffic, the hardware store, and at group training at the park. Many of the training and corrections were needed on my part, the human! I highly recommend him. Read Less

Read MoreI started working with Brett as I have a sassy dachshund / beagle mix and a pit mix who has problems with leash aggression. I had worked with other trainers in the past for the leash aggression specifically and found that none of the methods proved to be effective. I was introduced to Brett through a few friends who were also clients of his.
After our first initial meeting, I was completely sold as he was exceptionally knowledgeable on pups and their various problems. We worked together for months and each session the pups and I would work on new skills. There's no doubt I needed to put work in with the pups in between sessions, but it truly paid off in every sense of the word. Not only is he great at training your dogs, he trains you as well!
Because of Brett, we are able to do hikes and long walks knowing that I can control any situation presented. I am so beyond grateful for our one- on-one classes, but I also love that he sets up group sessions for all clients free of charge. The best part is, we are all able to work with dogs of various breeds in a social setting and there is no judgement should a pup have a slip up. He has created a really nice community of people! I could not recommend working with him enough!! Read Less
