Andrew has been a great help with my reactive dog. He is very knowledgeable and explains things very clearly. He gives you the tools to help you help your dog and the detailed written notes he provides after every session are a huge help as it is hard to remember everything discussed during the session. You can really feel that he cares about helping you and your dog. I only wish I had reached out to him sooner. Thanks Andrew for all your help.

Thank you, Sina! I enjoyed working with you both, and it was so satisfying to make friends with Captain after his initial reticence. Your thorough efforts in doing the exercises, documenting your progress and asking great questions along the way made it easy to help you.

Andrew is amazing. He has helped us train our very active 7 month old English Springer Spaniel to the point that he is manageable for us now. He not only explains what to do, but his theory behind it, and then follows up your lessons with notes the next day. Can't say enough good things about Andrew!

Andrew was amazing! If I could rate him higher I would. Walking with my dog Onyx was painful. Andrew helped me to understand the behaviour behind some of the things that were happening and now our walks are so pleasant. He also provided me with some great tools that I will continue to use with Onyx. Thank you Andrew!

Our dog Theo had lots of issues with barking, jumping, counter surfing and many more behaviours we wanted to have more control over. Andrew taught us many techniques that have helped us communicate with our dog and have had made training him a lot more fun and effective!

We highly recommend Andrew. He was very helpful and informative. My whole family enjoyed learning from him. He was patient and professional. It is obvious he loves what he does and he is exceptionally good at it.

Andrew is the real deal!! He is a true dog behaviourist whose dedication and positive enthusiasm for teaching us humans how to train our pups is not only infectious but extremely effective. The post training notes are invaluable, which I reference frequently. I have a new little rescue, Shiloh, who I thought would take a long time to train. After only 4 weeks, Andrew has taught me all the tools necessary for ensuring Shiloh’s continued success. Thanks to Andrew, I have a trained very happy, friendly little boy who is a joy to walk!

If we could give Andrew a higher rating than 5 stars we would!! His genuine care, wisdom and discernment of the areas that needed addressing with our two littermate puppies, Malachi and Micah, was astounding. We met 4 times and saw great improvements within the first week of implementing Andrews instructions. He was concise and meticulous with the notes he sent to us after each meeting which is absolutely invaluable to us as we can refer to them anytime! He was outstanding when articulating the steps needed to ensure that we along with our puppies would succeed! He is truly gifted!

Thank you, Betty and Vince! I had a great time working with you and your boys. They are great little learners, which made it even more fun, and your diligence in doing the exercises proved itself every session.

Andrew is kind, professional and thorough. He welcomed all my questions about walking a prey driven, pulling Springer Spaniel. With his guidance and tips my girl performed beautifully. We are both clear on what will work for both of us to make walks a pleasure. Eevee and I will continue to practice our 2 outdoor exercises for about 5 days and then I know Eevee will be ready to walk beside me. 1 hour very well spent.

Thank you, Lynda! You'd already done such great work with Eevee, and she's so eager to do what you want, it was easy to show you how to give her the clarity she needed to get walking "right."

Our 8 month old puppy was biting everyone in my house without warning. Some of the bites broke skin and caused bleeding. There were multiple triggers for this behaviour. Andrew provided a solution that was easy to implement and stopped this behaviour within a week! We used this technique to quickly stop our dog eating tennis balls, jumping on glass doors, etc...I highly recommend Andrew's services!

Thank you so much, Thomas! I was glad to hear you take what we did together and apply it when a new, dangerous problem arose. My goal is always to provide enough understanding of the principles of training that my clients won’t need me back - when you know why you did something, you understand how to apply it to a new task. That makes your story the more gratifying!

We have two giant Alaskan Malamutes; Marner and Chinook. When we picked up our 2nd-Chinook, the two were best friends but by 8 months Chinook was a bully and had attacked Marner 3 times unprovoked.
After talking with a vet, they recommended Andrew so we immediately called.
Andrew explained that he would only treat the dogs if we were very serious so we proceeded on. He planned an 8 week program that worked to perfection. By 4 weeks we could definitely see a difference and after 8 weeks our issue was solved provided we continued our learnings.
Today Marner and Chinook are best friends again and Chinook has no anger issues
We owe Andrew huge!!!
Thanks

I highly recommend Andrew to assist with all your dog training issues. Andrew is very knowledgeable and will find the right motivators for your fur baby. I have a new pup and although she's a small bread I want her to be well behaved just the same. Andrew gave me the right tools to motivate her into understanding commands. Zoe now has a better understanding of what is expected her. I am very happy with Andrew's approach to training.

Thanks Andrew

Thank you, Rose. Zoe is a cutie and gave us some fun challenges, with how quickly her sharp little brain works. I’m glad to have met you both!

Andrew is a real dog whisperer. He is perfect in finding out the origin of a problem and finds really easy ways to deal with it. Our dog was not treating our children nicely and had problems walking on the leash. For both problems Andrew found easy and good solutions. And he is such a nice guy. I can highly recommend him. We are really happy now. Thank you.
