I went to trainers before him which were horrible experiences, was told to put down my older pitbull and that she was too old to train, that people wouldn't train her because she's a pitbull, and all Mike's recommendations & teaching helped us turn things around for her. She's now much happier and safer as am I. If you are worried about using a prong collar just test it out on yourself first it doesn't hurt, same with a shock collar, I mean that one stings but it's nothing unbearable which made me feel better about using them on my ladies. Gave great recommendations for the collars to buy. Easy to use.

Pete and his team at Kindred Souls offer a highly structured, no-nonsense dog training curriculum,…read morewith a heavy emphasis on owner accountability. I just completed the seven week basic obedience course with my 8 month-old hound mix, and could not be more pleased with the results. Pete is clear and direct in his feedback, which I really appreciate. Each week's homework is laid out, and Pete constantly reiterates that he is a phone call away if you encounter any speed bumps or need clarification between classes. I was also grateful for the flexibility of being able to drop into class on an alternate evening if I hit a scheduling snag. My pup and I are about to move on to the eight week therapy dog course, and I am confident that we have the foundation necessary to be successful. All-in-all I highly recommend Kindred Souls Canine Center.

From the first class the instructor was on a power trip. Instead of instruction, only received criticism; the food we fed was wrong, but he did not recommend a new food. He hated the collar and tossed it. Put on another one said he would charge us. ( he didn't). The dog has died the child is grown. My only regret was ever going to this dog trainer who was on a power trip. ( he was recommended by a person whose opinion I respect)

We live in Manhattan and drive over an hour each way to get here, but it is worth it! The facilities are spacious, clean and beautiful and the staff are professional, caring and helpful.

Our dog was happy to see us when we picked him up, but definitely comfortable and happy with his trainer too! We're looking forward to coming back for more training sessions and boarding Ollie here when we're overseas. Would recommend Greanleaf without hesitation!

After trying the first trainer on recommendation and finding her to be a disaster, I looked online and found Keith. He had a number of good reviews so I thought I'd give it a chance and try him. When he came in he seemed very passive not at all what I expected. After explaining his philosophy on the way he trains dogs. He started to recondition Milo & Dukie without pain or treats. He also explained how dogs look at people. Dukie's big problem was that he jumped on people when they entered the house, he is 145lbs and would knock people over. Milo had a real attitude problem he nipped. Within 2 hours he had changed the dogs attitudes, it was an amazing transformation. You can now walk into my house without being jumped on or nipped. Its still a work in progress but what an amazing difference. He has made our lives a lot easier. Thanks Keith. Great Value.

The trainer who came to my house with a bag full of noisy metal balls and I was instructed to throw it or shake it to make noise when the dog failed a command. This had the complete opposite effect on our dog, and she cowered and became even less able to follow direction. It may be good for some dogs/breeds, but we had much more success using positive methods than asserting dominance.

Know up front ALL COSTS. Read reviews here and as many other places as you can before leaving a deposit, it seems some people get lucky, others do not. I suggest searching as much as you can so you know what you are dealing with. Dogs may be top notch as others have posted but our experience was not a positive one in any way shape or form. We found the owner to be very unprofessional and unhinged. Lots of profanity and talking down about others. She even tried contacting my son with special needs via social media - not cool at all.
