Before working with Anthony, walking with our dog Kent was extremely stressful. He struggled with…read moreleash pulling, and leash reactivity which made even short walks feel overwhelming. We love going to breweries with him, but his reactivity when other dogs came in made it unpredictable. From the very first private dog training session with Anthony we saw improvement -- not overnight, but in a way that actually made sense. Anthony took the time to explain why Kent was reacting the way he was, pointing out his body language, triggers and stress signals. The lessons were clear and realistic and were super easy to apply in our walks and outings. We worked through different leash and collar combinations to find what works best for Kent. This has made him more confident, focused and less reactive. After we started training, walks are calmer, more controlled, and genuinely enjoyable. We were able to be transitioned to a group class where we are able to see so many more improvements. We really appreciate the training not being a one size fit all approach. The transformation has been incredible. Anthony is an amazing person to work with! If you're struggling with leash pulling or reactivity or other behavior issues and feel stuck, Anthony is absolutely worth it. This training didn't just change Kent's walks -- it changed our relationship with him.

I started training with Anthony with my then 1 1/2 yr old Labrador Retriever. I was having issues…read morewith excessive barking and on leash dog reactivity. Both of these behaviors made my goals of participating in dog sports (specifically agility) and being able to walk in public around other dogs pretty much impossible. We took a break from agility and started working with Anthony. We did private and group lessons. Within months I was seeing improvement. Fast forward one year and both behaviors have been corrected. Thanks to Anthony we are back to agility and trying out other dog sports. We are now able to enjoy our boy even more than before! I highly recommend Anthony for his patient, no BS approach to training. He will give you the training and tools you need to work with your dog. The best part is that training will be fun for you and your dog!

He came to our house and we saw results right at the first visit! He got Nola to walk without pulling. After just a few more sessions she was very well-behaved at home. Dmitry provided excellent service. He was available to us on the phone. We texted at all hours of the day or evening any time we needed him. He was always there to guide us through any trouble we had. Dmitry is professional and knowledgeable and is worth what we paid. I highly recommend Dmitry and Canine Dimensions.

It felt like chaos every day! We were at our wits' end until Dmitry stepped in. After just five sessions, it's like we have a whole new dog. Dmitry's methods are nothing short of magical. Our Maltese now has perfect potty habits, completely leaves the towels alone, and hasn't touched a roll of toilet paper since the training began. The transformation has been incredible.

Watching Harry work with a dog is like watching McLain Ward navigate a jump course...his corrections seem effortless and are clear and he shows you the true potential your dog has. More importantly, he is an excellent coach and gives you the tools, education, and confidence for YOU to get the most out of your dog (as long as you put in the work outside of class). I can't thank you enough, Harry! We look forward to continue to work with you in the future and hope to be a good representation of USA K9 at our first AKC Rally in July!

Like half the country, when COVID hit I decided to get a pandemic puppy. But unlike those who…read morebrought home designer minis and shed free pocket pals, I rescued a 15 week old fluffer who came sight unseen all the way from South Texas. My Trooper is a dog of substance, part Husky, German Shepard, Chow, Rottweiler with a snippet of Cocker Spaniel thrown in (Yes, I did the doggie DNA test.) He arrived at 15 lbs and it seemed overnight, he began to expand, in size and attitude. His adorable cuddling and puppy mouthing was quickly turning into naughtiness and as he went from 15 to 50 lbs, I started to worry, I was going to be that house with the annoying dog. Enter Happy Dog Training. Recommended by EVERYONE, I registered for "Family Dog 1" and thought, if nothing else, I'd get to see real humans for the next 8 weeks. Trooper dragged me into our first class eagerly expecting to run and play with the 4 other dogs in class, but he soon learned that school was serious business, but with great rewards: Yummy treats, bully sticks and tug toys, and of course praise and attention. Our Trainers, Ellen and Tiffany made us feel so comfortable, gently reminding me when to click and when to treat since I so often got it wrong and helping me see the small steps we were making were really huge milestones on our journey from "hard to handle" to "wow, what a good dog." Never a harsh word or tone, they taught us to reward the positive and allow our fur kids to figure out how to earn those treats. No punishment, no yelling, no mean mommy voices, just lots of positive reinforcement and understanding their motivation. Trooper is now 10 months old and well over 60lbs. He walks well on his leash, responds to sit, down, off, wait, go and of course give mommy kisses. He had his first grooming at the spa and got a gold star for behavior. Thanks to Happy Dog Training, Mommy's Big Dog is turning out to be the silver lining in this pandemic. Hope to register for more classes soon- Trooper misses school!

There were six puppies in our class, and you could see definate improvement in each dog by the end of the 8 week course. Highly recommend!
