We have been maintaining his training tactics on our girl, and she is very receptive! I can go for walks with her and my daughter at ease, use her trained action words to stop her from stealing my daughter's toys lol, or being nippy within seconds. Having a toddler and a puppy at the same time was a challenge that I wasn't prepared for and I'm so thankful Rob was able to mold her into the wonderful pup she is today! I would recommend his services in a heartbeat!

Rob took him in and after three weeks this stubborn dog was a whole new dog. I didn't need food to get him to come or chase him jumping on the table for food. All the bad behavior stopped. With positive reinforcement and using the techniques Rob gave us we finally have our lives back and are able to enjoy our family dog without all the headaches. Thank you Rob. Our dog knows him as uncle Rob. The program is fairly priced and Rob knows what he's doing. Well worth it.

We had a really great experience working with Giovianni while getting our puppy. He was incredibly…read morepatient and responsive, even with my constant questions and (many) texts leading up to bringing our puppy home. He always replied quickly and kept us updated, sending photos along the way which made the whole process feel more personal and reassuring. It was very clear that he truly cares about his dogs, he treated our puppy as if he was going to keep him, which meant a lot to us. You can tell they are well cared for from the start. Since bringing our puppy home, he has been such an easy transition; especially with potty training, which has gone surprisingly smoothly with minimal accidents. The only thing we're still waiting on are the puppy's papers, but he has already communicated that they will be mailed once they come in. Overall, a very positive experience and we're so happy with our new addition, Knox!

To say I recommend Supreme K9 is a massive understatement…read more My one-year-old cattle dog Saoirse is an overwhelmingly loving pup to humans. To other dogs, though? Not so much. When I brought Saoirse to Supreme K9, I was a bit apprehensive, concerned about their methods, the level of success, and whether or not she would return a different dog (I was worried she wouldn't be the same). We initially chose the four-week program and after the second day, I noticed a certain level of obedience that wasn't there before. She already knew your standard commands like "sit" and "come" but getting her to stay still was a challenge. But I noticed an improvement immediately. Unlike most dog training facilities who largely keep you in the dark, one of the most helpful aspects of their strategy is to document their training sessions on Instagram reels where you can watch your dog in class every day. Our main trainer Dina (who is AWESOME) documented her training session with Saoirse almost hourly, so I got to watch their methods, how my pup reacted, and how much she learned daily. I got to learn the commands they used and got to watch in real time my dog transform. We ended up extending the four-week program to six-weeks to allow for even more training. The one-hour weekly owner/dog/trainer sessions were extremely helpful too, training ME how to work with my dog.. not order her around but work WITH her. They gave me all the tools I needed to help my dog continue her path. Once our six week program ended, I have my pup Saoirse back... still the same pup but with a LOT less reactivity toward other dogs... and I myself have learned many techniques and methods to keep her focused and obedient. I can't recommend them enough. Dina, Otto, Evan, Katie, Brian, Artemis... the whole team are amazing to work with and MASSIVELY recommended.

Otta and the team at SupremeK9 were incredibly helpful through the 1 on 1 sessions and the general trainings. Langlang almost does a perfect heel walk all the time now and is generally much more responsive. I think the most important part of the training to be honest was actually their ability to clearly articulate (and show) the steps required to make me a better dog owner. If you've got a dog who needs training, I'd strongly recommend Otto and the team.

Denise intuitively understands dogs and tailors her training to accommodate differences in personalities. She is a lovely blend of professional and personal warmth. It is like having a canine expert for a best friend-- even from session #1! In just two sessions, our dogs are so much happier, healthier, better adjusted, and all of our lives are significantly improved. Each training tip, product, and recommendation has proven indispensable in elevating the quality of our puppies' lives. After our first session, we were much better dog parents and our dogs seemed touched by an angel. They were so much calmer and their listening improved significantly. They knew a couple commands and looked forward to training sessions! We were both so pleased with the amount we accomplished in this initial session-- much more than our original expectations. The handouts she provides, along with personalized homework assignments, are concise and easy to follow to ensure maximum success as well. Denise followed up with us to check on our progress after the sessions and was thorough and thoughtful in her kind answers to our many questions. In addition to being a trainer extraordinaire, it is clear that Denise is a truly loving, gentle, awesome person. We are so glad to know her and her services have improved our lives and our relationship with our little rascals so much! We highly recommend her to the yelp community with bells and whistles! We were left with a beautiful blend of instant gratification and long-term results! She is worth every penny and more. You'll be so glad she was your trainer.

Denise is an amazing dog trainer, just about as good as it gets. When we got our dog Chewy he was…read morescared of almost everything, didn't know where to go to the bathroom, and didn't want to walk outside on his leash. With Denise's advice he was able to grow up to be a great pup who loves taking walks outside and doing his tricks! Denise is always there for her clients, I would write her emails at all hours of the day and night and she would always respond as quickly as she could. We recently left Chewy with Denise for one night when we went on a short trip and got tons of pictures and texts updating us on how he was doing. I recommend Denise to everyone I know who has a dog or is thinking of getting one. She rocks!

Whether you need a trainer for sport, personal protection, obedience or behavioral issues, Dave is the right choice!

I adopted a rescue puppy who had some behavior issues, due to what we think happened to him early in his life. It got to the point where the puppy nipped a dog walker and they refused to walk him anymore. With our mounting concern, we reached out to Pack Leaders and enrolled him in their Training and Psychology Camp. It was a game-changer for us. Not only did Steve and team correct his behavior, they took the time to teach us why it was happening, how we should handle any outbreaks, and trained us to reinforce the great training they provided. Thank you Steve and Team - I don't know what we would have done without you!

We could not recommend PLD more!…read more My husband and I rescued our American Bulldog/Boxer mix, Clancy, in January 2021. Clancy is a very excitable and strong 65lb pup who was not great in the car, and would not be able to sit with us on a plane. So when it came time for us to have to go away for a weekend, around 8 months after we got him, we knew we had to board him. We went to some commercial boarding facilities (Camp Bow Wow was one) and were HORRIFIED at the experience. We watched for 5 minutes on the pup cameras and had them pull Clancy out of there immediately - 20 dogs per 1 staff member, running around, no structure, no care, no individualized support in what looked like an airplane hanger of crates. Thankfully, my husband had been following Steve's IG for a while, as he also is passionate about dog training and behavior (his mom a veterinary nurse and they have had bull terriers, boxers, and bulldogs over their lives). We reached out and they offered boarding options, so we immediately jumped to go to the initial training/evaluation session with Steve. We were NOT disappointed. First off, it gave us a wake up call on how lenient we've been with Clancy in regards to training/discipline following the passing of our our previous pup - and that dogs actually crave that guidance and structure. Steve advised us that Clancy was a classic "excitement case" and his excitement actually quickly turned to anxiety and needed to be addressed. From that session, we immediately implemented the techniques and approach advised by Steve and started to see a major difference and were on the right path. We never had to board a dog before so naturally we were apprehensive about leaving him. When it came time to drop him off at The Maddie Ranch, my husband and I came to the same conclusion - he literally could not be in better hands, if anything were to happen or he got sick, he is in the best place possible - with people who are there for one reason only: the benefit of the dogs. During their stay the pups get daily pack walks, private training sessions, and some play time. You get constant updates with photos and videos. You can also message the folks via the app they use and they reply within less than 20 minutes, they'll give you updates on how their progress is, for Clancy, how he's been doing with his excitement, his demeanor, and so on. They also give explanations into their training methods while he's there which helps us upon returning - and we always notice a difference in his behavior! It is hard to be calm and not excite him upon picking him up though, but we're working on it. We've now boarded Clancy at The Maddie Ranch 3 times, for different intervals, and we plan to again in January. Board & Train is the best option for our dog and I imagine it would be for all dogs. They get care, love, and most important structure which they so crave. Could not recommend PLD more, all of the staff have been awesome - you will leave knowing your dog could not be in a safer, and not to mention beautiful place. Thank you to Steve, Dana, Christian, Cassandra, Jay and everyone else! Also a huge thank you to Devon who has been so accommodating and lovely when scheduling/planning all of Clancy's boarding sessions!
