His energy level has been less of an issue with Bethany's help, she has a great way with dogs but also communicates clearly with owners and explains why and how the obedience commands are supposed to work, she has also interpreted his show ring behaviors and explained what the objectives are to me to achieve a more trusting and less difficult relationship. I admit he's been a challenge. She's both direct and sensitive, not at all a drill sergeant type of trainer, and she is certainly aware of the nature of different breeds and individual dogs. I highly recommend her classes and one-on-one sessions. She has a wealth of experience with all kinds of specialty training beyond basic obedience.

The folks there know who he is and my dog clearly isn't afraid to go there - which is good. The dogs get to be dogs at a nice facility and they are well taken care of. Additionally, the food the dogs are provided is high quality (I use the same food at home). You can't beat $25/night. I will continue to bring my dog to Orchard Kennels. I'm not sure who does the grooming there, but they do a good job at that as well. My dog comes home clean and well brushed.

I asked the staff how they did and I received shrugs of 'I guess okay' - like they didn't know my dogs. No thank you, nothing. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to Orchard Kennels.

Our dog Olive completed a board and train with Michael in his home. This has made such huge difference in the issues she was having.

Both dogs are beautiful, incredibly healthy, and have been amazing additions to our family. And I really can't say enough good things about Famn Damily. I've been there twice now. With my family. In both cases we drove 240 miles to get there, just because we realized what a special place it is, and because we knew we didn't want to get our puppies from any place else. You set foot on the farm, and you see dogs that are truly living their best lives. They have so much space to run and play, they are so well cared for, and so loved, and so clearly happy!! And healthy. And the facilities that have been constructed for the dogs, that clearly took a great deal of time, money and effort to build, are very impressive. Melodie Hammond runs the farm. And she's amazing. I know that my future dogs will be golden retrievers, simply because I know I only want to get puppies from Melodie, from Famn Damily, and Golden retrievers are what she breeds. The last thing I said to Melodie when I left the farm yesterday was, "see you in another two years"

We've been working with Nate for the past several weeks in private sessions. Other trainers I've worked with in the past would focus on compliance and correcting behaviors. Nate is more focused on the dog's stress level. Once she is relaxed, she chooses the more desirable behaviors. When she's chill, she does not jump or mouth as much. She even leaves slack on the leash. We're still in training, but I see her comfort and confidence increasing every session. Nate is so in tune with her and how she feels, it's amazing to watch. I appreciate all of his YouTube videos, especially if I'm trying to teach someone else how to work with her, or if I forget what he says during a session. They are great tools for practice. I also really like that we meet up at different places to build the dog's comfort. We started at my house, then went to the dog daycare she just started attending, then we met at the dog park, then a park near the pet store (and walked the busy, strip mall parking lot). His approach is practical and is so healthy for the dog (and me) long term. Thanks, Nate, for helping me build such a great relationship with my new pup!

Nate is a fantastic dog trainer. He has worked with three dogs that I have had in my care. One was…read morea Newfoundland and another was a very small toy poodle, who was so nervous that he would nip at people. I've watched him with other families and their dogs, and he has a lot of patience with dogs and a soft demeanor, but knows how to make them listen to his commands. He has kept me updated with pictures and videos and response very promptly to whenever I reach out. It has put me at ease, knowing and watching the dogs progress in their training. He has them playing with other dogs and I relieved me, knowing that they were in good hands and having good playful training with him and the other dogs. I am part of a rescue company and he's the only one that they go to as well because of his extensive training. The facility is large with many different rooms for the dogs. I highly recommend him for anyone that wants to have obedience training for their dog and for any other concerning issues. He's very knowledgeable when it comes to handling and just knowing what they need. Of course part of training is not just for the dog, but for the owner and how the techniques must be used. With anything it takes two.
