He met with us at his home, our home, and large businesses to help us in socialization training. We are thankful to Adam for his honest commitment to training responsibly, and recommend him to all!

I purchased my first Great Dane in September 2025. At nine months old he was 135 pounds - and I am…read moreonly 120 pounds! My dog (Goliath) and I needed some serious training so I did not get dragged. Bill worked with us for 6 weeks (1 x per week) and he was truly amazing. He was firm and compassionate. Goliath had the utmost respect for Bill and did what he asked. Every week we met, Goliath became more of a pleasure than a puppy pain-in-the-a@##! I've had dogs forever and have worked with several trainers. By far, Bill is the most knowledgeable and effective trainer I've ever known. I am now confident in taking Goliath anywhere and having him remain obedient. I can take him on walks without using the claw collar - something I thought I'd never be able to do. Bill makes himself available after training ends in case further help in needed. I would strongly recommend Bill - he is worth every penny.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Sierra Canine Academy. From the beginning,…read morethe training and support have been amazing. Bill genuinely cares about helping both you and your dog succeed, follows through, answers questions, and makes sure you feel supported throughout the process. When we first started, Roxy was a shy puppy who lacked confidence. The difference in her now is incredible. She has become so much more confident, listens to me, is excited to train, and genuinely wants to work for me. He has completely transformed my dog. One thing I really appreciate is how flexible he is with both the owner and the dog. He understands that every dog is different and is always willing to adjust the training, try new things, and figure out what works best rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. You can tell he truly wants his clients to succeed and cares about the outcome. He and his wife are also some of the kindest and most genuine people, which has made the entire experience even better. I am extremely grateful for everything Bill has done for Roxy and me. I would absolutely recommend Sierra Canine Academy to anyone looking for a trainer who truly cares, follows through, and wants both you and your dog to succeed.
