I am always impressed by his genuine nature, especially the way he includes my daughter, 8 years old, in our training. He listens, is patient, flexible, communicative, and full of awesome ideas. We came to him with a very likable, but strong willed 10 month Great Dane. Our biggest concerns were his leash pulling, and exuberant greetings with guests. With Joe's expertise and our consistency, we are in such a good, less stressful place with our dog and household. My 8 year old can even walk him comfortably (see pic). Thank you Joe and Diligent Dog Training!

I have to update my review as we've now been working with Michaela & team for longer and could not…read morebe more happy. I highly recommend Om Obedience and would encourage anyone to sign their dog up for their classes and lessons! I first started working with Om Obedience in the summer of 2020 when I adopted a pandemic puppy, Delilah. Michaela and Maddie helped work with her as she grew up and went through over energetic periods and fear periods. We stayed consistent with the classes through adolescence and not only did Delilah LOVE THEM, but we also always saw improvements and learned a lot. We then worked with Michaela on private lessons before welcoming a human baby. Michaela helped desensitize Delilah to the baby noises and toys, practiced stroller walks, gave us so many tips and tricks to safely have baby and dog coexist, and was incredibly patient and persistent with getting Delilah to jump in the car and go up and down our basement stairs (two things we couldn't get her to do in the 2+ years we had Delilah). When the baby arrived, we felt so prepared with Delilah and Delilah has been great at being a big sister and isn't anxious at all with the change.. which if you know Delilah, that is incredible!

We are so glad that we sent our 2 year old Basenji mix Parker to Sit Means Sit for boarding and…read moretraining for a week. Before SMS, Parker was extremely difficult to control during neighborhood walks. As soon as he sensed that another dog (or human) was nearby, he would roar like a lion and try to chew off his leash. At home if he heard anyone waking by our house (and heaven forbid if he heard people talking outside) he would go berserk. He had broken two widows in our living room trying to get outside. Lastly when the mailman or UPS visited us, Parker would roar and scratch and claw the front door like he was trying the knock it down to get outside. When Dave brought Parker home after a week at SMS, he gave us back the dog we love and new behaviors to match. Before Dave left, two of the dogs that Parker disliked the most walked by our house with their owners. Parker sat quietly while both dogs walked passed him. No roaring or leash chewing. Parker has been home for 5 days and we utilize the techniques that Dave taught to Parker and us. We know that consistency is critical and Parker has a discipline that we never thought we'd see.

She has been aggressive towards young children and when reached out to breeder they said they never had issues with their dogs being aggressive. Overall she's a good dog but I would never purchase from this breeder again.
