    So very grateful for Angela and Nikolett at Naughty to Nice Dog Training. When we introduced our…read morelabradoodle, Marlo, to his first class, he was sweet and eager to learn. He soon evolved into a ball of energy with increased enthusiasm and decreased focus. Angela welcomed him with such patience, kindness, and skill. She helped us understand how to channel all that puppy energy in the right direction and ease our concerns when we felt frustrated -- and we felt frustrated A LOT. With guidance and consistency, Marlo not only earned his STAR Puppy Certificate but also his Canine Good Citizen certification--something we honestly doubted would ever happen. What we appreciated most about Naughty to Nice was how supported we felt as new puppy parents. They celebrated every milestone with us and gave us the confidence to continue building on Marlo's learnings. Marlo indeed went from naughty to nice all thanks to this incredible team.

    Toshi, my 14 week Shiba puppy and I came to Nikolett and Angela for a 1:1 private session after our…read morepuppy was having some biting issues and harness/grooming aggression. He overall is very eager to learn and was doing well with his early obedience training but definitely runs the house. Within ONE HOUR, Toshi was able to tolerate the harness, and for the FIRST TIME since he came home, he let me brush him for a minute straight without biting me!!! We got so many great tips and a list of homework to work on until our second private session later this week before we start our AKC STAR Puppy classes (already secured the date!) I cannot thank them enough for their tips, their kind words and efforts towards Toshi and I am confident to believe he will be a great dog with the right tools.

    Outstanding. I rescued a dog and he is great, except. Koda would bark at every dog while on walks…read more& hikes. And he would fence fight. It was so bad that walks were not fun, they were embarrassing. He'd see another dog and bark, jump around and look viscous. I tried another dog training company, but all they did was teach me how to feed treats to my dog. Zero progress was made, and I was discouraged. Then I found Joshua Kaplan. We began making progress on our first session. After two weeks, Koda was showing a 70% improvement! By six weeks, I called Koda "cured"! Koda and I can walk anywhere, anytime without him going crazy around other dogs. It is now a joy to walk my dog; much more fun. We are now 10 weeks in and even my wife can control Koda. About the fence fighting...before, he would bark and jump on the fence, scaring everyone including my neighbors. Now after ten weeks, Koda still wants to bark, but doesn't really...We are now at the point where he runs up and down the fence line whining, and just a little quiet squeak of a bark. No more jumping on the fence. Serious progress from where we started, and it's only 10 weeks! Thanks to Joshua! Joshua made all the difference. He's direct, to the point, but not forceful. Super patient as I ask about a billion qHe explains all instructions in great detail and answers all my questions to my complete satisfaction. Best dog training experience ever!

    We adopted our 5 month old GSD mix from a local rescue, and at the time she was fearful of everyone…read moreand everything. While we were comfortable training her the basics, such as sit, down, come, etc. on our own, we were looking for a dog trainer that understands her breed mix and to give us guidance on training her properly, because after all, it is the owners' responsibility to make sure their dog is well-behaved in public. We know there are many puppy obedience classes, but we knew with her shy personality that a group setting would not be comfortable for her. We happened to find Joshua on a Facebook page where other dog owners had recommended him. So, we called him up and discussed what we wanted to do with our dog. We wanted her to be great on recall, loose leash walking, and taking her downtown with us. He explained his training methods and made sure we understood what was needed for training. There was absolutely no pressure from Joshua on immediately starting. We had 5 sessions with Joshua but felt like we only needed 4. This is how good of a dog trainer he is. He got us to feel comfortable with letting our dog off leash in a wide open space during the second session. His methods on training recall are incredible and extremely effective. Never in my mind would I thought I would be able to let a puppy off leash that quick. We went downtown and had coffee while training our dog to sit next to us and be patient. Loose leash walking is still a work in progress but that was to be expected. Not only has Joshua taught us the knowledge in training our dog, but it has also helped our dog build her confidence and become her goofy, happy go lucky self. In just 3 months, we have complete trust in her being off leash and she loves meeting new people and making doggie friends. I could not be prouder of how far our dog has come in such a short amount of time, and we have Joshua to thank for that.
