I needed to feel this trust before i could trust him with my dog. Jack Sparrow has anxiety issues and Luis has helped us to work patiently with this issue. With the help of Luis Jack Sparrow has come a long way. I believe i am the one who still needs more training. I highly recommend Harmony Dog Training and Luis if you need training.

Nancy gave us the foundation to create a harmonious training between us and our dog. I couldn't be happier with what Nancy has taught us and our puppy she was truly a great person to have! Our puppy is a little over a year now and listens extremely well. I am so thankful for Nancy and will certainly be using her when we get another dog!

We're also learning so much as new puppy parents since Angela takes the time to explain what she's doing and how we can continue practicing on our own. We live in NYC, and she's been a huge help in getting us and Rambo comfortable with city life before he's fully vaccinated. Angela is extremely knowledgeable, communicative, and always on time. She's also there for us whenever we have questions outside of our sessions, which we really appreciate. She customizes her approach to Rambo's personality and our lifestyle instead of using a one size fits all method. Angela is a pleasure to work with, and we look forward to continuing our training journey with her. We can't recommend her enough!

We are so grateful for everything they have taught us and only wish we had started sooner. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

I had had a dog walker who was super unreliable (cancelled on me last minute, lost my keys twice), whose boss nickel and dimed me for everything, without taking any responsibility for any of their wrongdoings. Addison is extremely reliable and communicative. He walks Molly in her group five days a week while I'm at work. I was hesitant about her walking in a group before, but he never walks too many dogs at once, and brings his helper if needed. He sends me plenty of photos, and it's clear that she's having a blast! He really learns their personalities and tells me how she's progressing on her walks and in the group. You can tell that he cares for each individual dog so much! What a relief when I'm away at work every day.

I believe any Chelsea or Hell's Kitchen dog would be lucky to have you as their walker!

He takes his time, especially with mats, to make sure that his fur clients don't suffer. Molly is always beautiful, but she's come out looking extra beautiful the two times that he groomed her! Marshall has also given me great tips on what tools to use to brush her and how to remove her mats without hurting her. He even sent me a video during the groom to demonstrate. Payment is easy and done via Venmo. Will continue to go back to him!

We were treated with respect. I held my baby until they did the injects for him to pass. Blue pearl did a great follow up with me and offered some grief counseling.

I've spent much of my life working in rescue and advocating for dogs, so I don't say this lightly -- every single person we encountered at BluePearl made it clear that they genuinely care. From the medical decisions to the way they supported us emotionally, I felt that Gatsby and I were in the hands of people who were deeply committed to doing everything possible to keep him comfortable and to give him the very best care. I will always be thankful for that.

She is not only knowledgeable and experienced, but is warm, kind, generous with her time and attention, and truly invests herself in guiding dog owners to enable their dogs live their best possible lives peaceably together. We reached out to Phyllis for help with our very enthusiastic (some might say maniacal!) young puppy, who was not progressing as well as we'd hoped based on our own training methods. We realized we needed help--so Phyllis was our go-to expert. We arranged for a 3-lesson pack of sessions held at our apartment and also outside, each about a week apart. Each time, she brought new insight into our puppy AND into our ways of working with her. She is very attuned to small nuances in human and dog body language and tone of voice that, with practice, can redirect a bad habit without harsh or needless punishment. She is a strong proponent of positive reinforcement, redirecting "naughty" behaviors, and adjusting strategies as needed. And our pup loved and responded beautifully to her! Thanks to Phyllis, our puppy is now listening and learning better, making more progress than she had made with us alone, and is growing into the sweet, smart, and lovely pet we dreamed of. I highly recommend her for any of your dog training issues. WOOF!

Before starting our sessions, I was struggling with an over-excited Golden Retriever puppy. I had reached a point where I was losing hope, but Warren completely helped me regain my patience. His calm, expert approach changed the dynamic almost immediately. What sets this training apart is how manageable it is. Warren's training methods are intuitive, and his super detailed recap emails were a total game-changer. They made it incredibly easy to practice on my own between sessions, ensuring that we never lost momentum. Training didn't feel like a chore, and because Warren's methods actually work, it was super rewarding. Ultimately, I feel like I have a totally new dog and an infinitely stronger bond with her. I cannot thank Warren enough for his help. If you want a trainer who truly cares and delivers real results, Warren is your guy!

We reached out to Warren Sears at Shelby Semel Dog Training because our dog was having a tough time…read moresettling around guests, getting overexcited with other animals, and reacting to sounds and animals on TV. On top of that, he had started showing some guarding behaviors around toys and food. It felt like we were constantly walking on eggshells and didn't know where to start. From our very first session, Warren completely put us at ease. He took the time to really get to know our dog and gave us a plan that was clear, doable, and tailored to our home setup. He explains everything in a calm, easy-to-understand way and focuses on helping you teach your dog rather than just correcting behavior. Every time we met, we came away feeling more confident and capable. One of the best parts about working with him is the follow-up -- he sends these amazing session notes that break everything down step by step. Having that written out made such a difference for us when we were practicing between sessions. Our dog has come so far since then. He can actually relax when people come over, stays calm when cats are nearby, and barely reacts to the TV anymore. Even the resource guarding has improved so much. It's been incredible to see his progress, and we feel like we finally have the tools to keep building on it.

I have a complicated situation bringing a new puppy home after my other boy poodle passed away at 14 and left his 10 year old poodle sister to grieve . Since I also have a 22 year old Senegal parrot there was a lot of work to do to help the puppy adjust to good behaviors and family rules . Jo has a tool box of training techniques which helped smooth out a very bumpy entry of young Nico our puppy , into our home . My time with Jo is not just straight forward simple dog training but subtle behavioral techniques which Jo gave and trained me to make this energetic over enthusiastic little boy develop polite behaviors with the two other siblings. Honestly I don't know what I would do without Jo's refined skills as a total animal behaviorist and dog trainer . We work over zoom and that turns out to be the perfect medium for us as it is efficient and less disruptive to a full household . Nico has improved so much and her epic techniques go right to the heart of every problem I have had with Nico politely adjusting into this complicated household .
