Justin took the time to explain what was driving the behavior and the emotions behind it, which helped us understand our dog so much better. I'm not exaggerating--within about 20 minutes, we saw a huge improvement! We went on a great walk, and Justin gave us tons of practical advice and tools to keep making progress. We left feeling so happy, relieved, and much more confident. We couldn't recommend him enough!

She's always been a little anxious and vocal, but as she's gotten older, both issues have worsened. I've tried just about every other approach, but Justin's guidance and unique perspective on training are truly transformative. He doesn't just give you techniques to follow--he teaches you how to connect with your dog and ease the underlying issue in a way they can understand. The lifelong resource you gain through this service, combined with the trust and confidence he builds throughout the process, makes this feel like so much more than a training program. It has genuinely been life-changing for us both.

My friends nicknamed her Cujo, it was that bad. I couldn't invite people to the house. Summer of 2025 I have a dog that loves meeting new dogs and people and runs around OB dog beach off leash. She's not reactive, she has great recall, she makes friends, I can have people over, she listens to commands, and she's so easy to walk. I took her into the vet this week and they removed the 'bite risk' warning from her file, they said it's like a completely different dog. She's not anxious or fearful. She's confident, playful, and so happy. All of this was because of training with John. He is patient, gentle, and kind. I can't put into words how grateful I am that we found him. I recommend him to every dog owner I know.

He has shown us what cues to look for and how to get the best out of our dogs while using firm and loving methods. Essentially, he teaches us how to motivate our dogs to want to do the exercises. He has wonderful follow up, as well, and doesn't push anything but rather encourages. It has been a wonderful experience and we will work with Fernando again after we've had time to practice what we learned. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in effective, long lasting training practices and strengthening your understanding of your fur babies. Thank you, Fernando!!

We've been working with Fernando to train our rescue dog, Cowboy, and I can't recommend him enough!…read more From the very first session, Fernando has been incredibly communicative, patient, and professional. He took the time to really understand Cowboy's personality and our specific goals. We're currently focusing on preventing "door dashing," improving basic obedience, and walking nicely on a leash -- and we're already seeing major progress! One of the things I appreciate most is Fernando's flexibility with in-home scheduling. It's made the training process so much more manageable for our family. He explains everything clearly and always gives us practical tools and homework that are easy to follow between sessions. Cowboy is responding so well to Fernando's calm, consistent approach, and we feel much more confident as dog owners thanks to his guidance. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, helpful, and reliable dog trainer, Fernando is your person!

Finally feel like my dog's leader, thank you, Jessica!…read more My pup (German shepherd, 90 lbs, 1.5 yrs old) and I love our experience with Jessica! When we started, he was reactive to dogs and a nightmare on walks. Now? I'd trust anyone to walk him without getting dragged down the street. His obedience has improved dramatically, too. Even more surprising to me is that our communication is so much clearer. Now, I feel like my dog's leader, not just his handler. If you have a large, reactive dog and want a real partnership, not just commands, go see Jessica. We've got group sessions coming up, and I am so excited to watch my boy make friends and be fully and properly socialized.

I honestly don't know how to fully express my gratitude to David and his team at Performance K9…read more My dog, Pooka, is a German Shepherd who is almost nine years old. He has always been high-strung and reactive, and he was aggressive toward both strangers and other dogs. Every daily walk was spent in fear and constant tension, and I had almost given up hope that he could ever change. By chance, I was talking with ChatGPT about my dog, and it recommended Performance K9 Training and Boarding School as something worth trying. To my surprise, Pooka passed David's interview and was accepted into the program. After just three weeks of training, Pooka is a completely different dog -- a calm, obedient good boy. I no longer have to be on edge every time I take him out. To make sure the change was real, I stood with him outside a busy grocery store. With people coming and going all around him, Pooka showed no fear or agitation, and he did nothing to embarrass me. He was as calm as if he were at home. I could hardly believe it. David truly lives up to his reputation as a world-championship-winning trainer -- he understands dogs and genuinely loves them. I'm also very grateful to Sabrina, Julia, and Christina, who are warm, responsive, and attentive, and who make clients feel welcome and at ease. Once again, thank you to David and the entire Performance K9 team. I highly recommend them to anyone reading this review. If your dog has problems like Pooka's, go to Performance K9 -- it is worth every penny. Hui and Lucy
