Thanks, Jose!

Car rides were awful, we had to cover our windows so he would not react to people or dogs walking by, and he even reacted to cartoon dogs on TV. He also started showing aggression toward our other dog. We had tried multiple training classes before and things were only getting worse. After Jose's 16 day program Otis came home like a completely different dog. Even after the first few days we could see his confidence growing and every group class showed more progress. Other dog owners even commented on how much he had changed. I truly never thought I would see Otis running around playing with other dogs but now he is a normal, happy dog. Jose fixed him and completely changed his life and ours. This is the best money we have ever spent and I will always be grateful. I cannot recommend him enough!

So Baci was an indulged as a new puppy who arrived at our home just when our new granddaughter did in a remote city. But once we moved to the Front Range area to be closer to our growing family, Baci needed some training. Isaac was just amazing. Calm, quiet, and easygoing. No reprimands from this guy, just relationship building, establishing trust and clear communication, and persistence. Our dog went from a highly reactive and headstrong little girl to walking on a heal with a loose leash, being able to sit on command, staying out of a designated area, and more. All in just one session. The best part is that her fun and high spirits remain fully intact. This dog is still happy, fun, and loving. Thanks, Isaac. Highly recommend!

Three days into having him and he dragged me down a hill to get to another dog. I love him, but he's an absolute psycho. I called a bunch of trainers to see if someone could help with his dog reactivity. They all flat out refused because of his age and size to train him around other dogs which is what Sheldon needed. After the first two sessions with Isaac where he shared invaluable tips, he allowed us to practice around his dog Finn (the most placid dog). Isaac was patient, calm, and supportive of our journey with Sheldon. He'd even offer guidance if I had a question about the training post-session. We're now almost a year into having Sheldon and I can comfortably walk him around other dogs with some of the cues and tips that Isaac taught me. I can take him to the park and I can have him on a long line. Today we walked passed two off leash dogs playing fetch! I'm truly grateful to Isaac for making our lives and Sheldon's life a lot less stressful.

We contacted Michael about our 5-year-old Australian Shepherd, Tucker, after we moved to a new…read morehouse in the foothills. In a new environment with new distractions, he was a much more reactive and anxious dog -- barking at everyone walking by and chasing after dogs and deer. When new people would come to the door, he would aggressively bark, which would make us nervous to have strangers visit. We have completed three sessions with Michael so far, and we have noticed such an improvement! As an animal behaviorist, Michael helps you understand the emotions and reasoning behind your dog's response. We had previously completed basic dog obedience courses, and while those help with commands, Michael has taught us how to communicate better with Tucker and earn his respect and trust. While we still have work to do, he has become less reactive to people and no longer chases other animals. We can tell he is more relaxed and willing to let us take the lead -- he looks to us before reacting and is much more responsive to commands. He is just overall a happier dog! We will continue to work with Michael and can't wait to see the progress Tucker makes in the coming months. Regardless of your dog's issues, Michael can help!

Even after the first session there was immediate improvement. At every session as Michael taught me the tools to be a calm and confident leader and in return I have earned the respect of "Sogna" and often have compliments of how obedient she is around other dogs and children when I take her for walks. Unfortunately, I had to move out of state and my backyard backed up to 5 other properties (all with dogs). I have been able to call Michael and even over the phone he has assisted me in dealing with the fence fighting! My dog recognizes Michael's voice and responds. Even miles away Michael has once again helped to successfully navigate a very difficult situation. I honestly cannot express how Michael has changed our lives and I highly recommend him to anyone as he truly is the best of the best when it comes to dog behaviorists/trainers!

He's not only learned and continued to obey his commands but as a whole he's become a more obedient and receptive dog. I did appreciate how you did not let us get too optimistic during the training. Boy did he deliver tho! We took to heart continuing the training once he was done and it's worked great. Only two small recommendations, one is to have written commands on maybe a 3/5 laminated card and two, how bout a graduation certificate! Awesome job Gustavo and team!
