Andy is the best! Our dog did the 3 week training and she is so well behaved and listens to our commands thanks to Andy - highly reccommend Andy! read more

Andy does an amazing job! I gave him a rambunctious 6 month old puppy, and he made him have manners and listen to ques and commands. I am very particular about who trains my dogs, and as a dog groomer who has been grooming some of the dogs he's trained, I got to see the quality of training he offered which made it easy to ask him to board and train my newest pup while I was recovering from shoulder surgery; win-win! read more

Wet Nose Training - Zeke, 7 months old - Pet Training Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

This was our first experience with a dog trainer. Our dog, Zula Mae, returned to us a happy pup! She is still a scaredy cat, but now knows to trust me that I'll keep her safe. Andy taught us both that I'm the Alpha and that is exactly what we both needed. Thanks! read more

I am very thankful for Andy. We still have - thanks to Andy! - a full bred American Cocker Spaniel. He was the first dog that I ever had that bit someone (us) and he was only just over a year. We were at the point where we did not know what to do with him, he would not listen to the word "no" and if we tried to force our will he became very stubborn and aggressive. Not our type of dog. Although, Sam was so sweet and cuddly when he was content. In desperation we found Andy, and with his help and training, Sam was returned to us, a new dog! Sam had learned to respect commands and we were taught how to motivate and lead Sam. We are also thankful that we have a place that we can board Sam. He loves Andy. read more

Andy has done a great job with our Holly. She is a nervous dog and always will be, but Andy has trained US as well as Holly on how to overcome some of her fears. She is listening much better and I feel with the addition classes he offers at home Holly and her family (us) will continue to grow and learn. Andy has been very patient with us and non judgmental. He has a great way of teach you so you don't feel attacked (so to speak) on what you "thought" you knew about your fur baby. He is currently working with our other baby Rocco! We can't wait to get Rocco back and we look forward to our continued training with Andy! read more

Wet Nose Training - Holly on "place" - Pet Training Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Well, not sure where to start on this review for Andy, but here it is. Our 9-month old Lab (Ms Scout as Andy called her) spent 3-weeks with him. We are extremely happy with the work and of course results of Andy's training of Scout. I did most of the training for the first 8-months or so. We were able to get Scout to a pretty good point, but still with some challenges. What Andy did was get Scout (and us) to the next level, which I had several challenges. We waited about 1-week after we got Scout back and resumed our normal routine and activities, but only much, much better to see how Scout progressed and retained the training. Of course, a lot also depends on us continuing the training sessions with her while in our normal home environment. We are pleased with the end results, but still moving and learning based on Andy's recommendations. I must say, I am not surprised as that is how I met Andy, while he was out in public with a dog he was training. We took Scout to his place for an evaluation and pretty much sealed the deal after talking in-depth and specific things for Scout. We are looking forward to the home visit follow-ups with Andy to add new things and continue improving what he has already accomplished. We would highly recommend Andy (and his 3-week board/training program) to anyone who wishes to train or advance their own training of their dog. read more

A couple months back, my partner in crime and I submitted a question through Yelp to dog trainers in the area for our flat-coated retriever. The first response came in almost immediately from Wet Nose. It was from the owner, Andy, who came across very friendly and straight to the point with quotes for their options. He also opened the message up to any other questions we may have had after his initial response and said if we were still interested we could set up a time to meet with him to gauge us on whether or not we were looking for anything else or if we had concerns and to also meet with our fur baby. My PIC and I had a few discussions afterwards and decided to meet with Andy for the assessment. Tbh, our schedules are almost always out of whack so we had to schedule and reschedule a couple of different times but Andy was so understanding and always giving us options on his availability. When we finally met, we brought our baby in and he went over the options again along with what the expectations and goals were for each of them. We never felt pressured to make a decision on the spot or opt for something out of our price range or anything of that nature. He absolutely asked us to comfortable with whatever decision we decided - even if that meant not going forward with him after that meeting. As I had also mentioned, Andy assessed her and observed the dynamics of her behavior (as well as ours) and even gave us some tips and pointers to take home with us before we left from our meeting. I'll tell you what: we felt so comfortable with everything that my PIC and I decided on the full monty (not THAT full monty but the 3-week boarding and training session - get your mind outta the gutter ;) We communicated via texts and phone calls at least a couple of more times and finally set a date for drop off. I don't think she knew what was coming bc she almost had that look Rose from The Titanic had when Jack went into the abyss of the Atlantic. "Come back! Come back!" Payment for the plan wasn't expected until later but we insisted on getting ahead of the curve and went with about half up front. Andy's primary focus at drop off was making sure she had her food and maybe any other toy or blanket that was hers so she could have us near while she was away. He said he'd send pics on updates and that she would be staying at his personal home throughout the duration of her training. A few days went by and we got a couple of pics and updates and after a few more days, Andy went ahead and sent us a video of her progress! I was in tears and couldn't believe how much she had learned in such a short time frame. Amazed is an understatement for sure! Finally, week 3 came and Andy again, was flexible with her pick up as well. When we got there she had just had a bath and was getting dried so in the meanwhile, Andy went over a few things with us but closed the loop on it once our fur baby was done drying. On an additional note: we had also re-homed another puppy (a golden retriever) and were unsure on how to properly introduce both girls. Andy was open to answering more of our questions about our new pup and encouraged us to bring her on pickup day! Wow! I think we spent about another hour and a half on pickup day going over what our flat-coated learned, what we should continue with (he even trained US so we could stay consistent!) and all the other details we needed to feel and be fully prepared. He even said he was willing to meet with us at his place, our place, or a mutual area to reinforce anything we needed or go over more items for training. About an hour or two after we left, Andy sent us a follow-up email full of additional info with attachments for our flat-coat in addition to how we can address any puppy issues or concerns we may have had for our golden retriever. He didn't have to think about our younger pup but he did! Fantastic! Right now with COVID, they're unable to hold puppy classes but he did give us alternatives that he had available as well. In talking about it with my PIC we're probably just going to opt for a 3-week boarding and training session for her since our first experience was absolutely great! Oh and he's been asking to meet with us the past week or so for our first follow-up session. Again, crazy availability but super freaking flexible! read more

Without a doubt this trainer is perfection! My Frenchie was a royal pain and Andy performed miracles with him. He is now more than manageable on the leash and staying put. Plus he even came back with a leaner, healthier figure. About to schedule my follow up class that comes with the in-boarding training package (which is a total bonus!) read more

Wet Nose Training - General Douglas MacArthur "Mack" - Pet Training Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I wanted to let some time pass before I wrote this long review so that we could see how our puppy Lucy did at home in the "real world" and how our included follow up trainings would go. I'm here to tell you that my husband and I couldn't be happier with the wonderful experience and results we have had at Wet Nose Training. We paid for the 3-week training and I'm really glad we did. Yes, it an investment to properly and thoroughly train your dog but when you think of having a well-behaved dog for the next 16-18 years, it is a sound investment. Also, this is one of those times you get what you pay for. Let me tell you, I did not see how I was going to be without my baby for 3 weeks. I kept reminding myself that we were doing this for her good so that one day she could be an off-leash dog on hikes and playing disc golf. A well-behaved dog has so many more opportunities: she can go to restaurants that allow dogs, she's welcome at other people's homes, I can trust her near children, the elderly, and other dogs. It is my saddest regret that my old dog was never trained and was poorly socialized. It has limited his life so much. Lucy got to go to Rudy's the day we picked her up! Andy is very transparent in letting you check out the environment. There is an inside work area (as well as an inside kennel room), but plenty of stimulating outdoor area for your dog to learn and practice, all surrounded by sturdy iron fencing. Once I saw the environment Lucy would be in I knew she would be safe. They only work together dogs that will be safe to work together so that your dog can develop his/her personality and confidence. I've attached pictures of our Lucy playing with a cute little friend she made there. She also went into her first heat while there and Andy and Amanda handled it perfectly professionally. We were always kept in the loop with what Lucy was working on. What made us first interview Wet Nose Training was that Andy kept getting singled out in such rave reviews at his last place of employment. I searched him out and saw that he had started his own training company. Then, when we interviewed him (we interviewed 4 other potential trainers), we found that his METHOD was the one we were looking for. As I understand it, they teach basic manners with positive reinforcement, teach leash training using a flat collar (cross between a regular collar and a prong) so that Lucy could learn what he wanted. There were also very high quality treats to reinforce good behavior. Then they add in an ecollar. That was the part I was most afraid of. On a scale of 0-99 we only needed a 12 to get her attention. She had ample opportunity to learn what was expected of her first without the ecollar before it was ever used, and it was never used without notice to her. To me, this is the most constructive way to train. It's layers of learning, like learning your alphabet before you start reading a book ;) Andy knows dogs. And Andy LOVES dogs. He truly understands their nature and gave us so much insight into Lucy, like how to watch her thought process unfold and what her "tell" is before she makes a bad choice of action. We just had a follow up the other day to iron out some of our questions so we could more accurately reinforce what Andy had taught her, and he'll be coming to our neighborhood soon so we can fine tune some of her behaviors in her natural habitat. The fact that she pauses before going through a doorway until told she can, sits when she sees another dog rather than charging them, can be put in "place" when we need her to stay still to answer the door, and leaves her cranky old brother dog alone has been such a relief. I highly recommend Wet Nose Training. read more

I just got home with my dog after training and being with Andy 3 weeks. At pick up I spent well over an hour with Andy so he could train me. My dog has anxiety and needs me to be a better leader in the house. I know my dog is going to test me, but Andy reassured me that it takes time. Andy will be coming to the house to follow up and work with me and my family, which is great. I am super impressed with how my dog responded to Andy at my training today prior to taking my dog home. I am giving 5 stars based on my experience during the 3 weeks of training and today training me. Andy is a really nice person and has a calm demeanor. read more

Andy is great to work with, very knowledgeable and always very responsive! He took in our almost 1 year old Fila Brasilerio (AKA Brazilian Mastiff) baby, Lilith Rose, and she came home a changed puppy. Filas are an inherently aggressive and protective breed - which I love. However, I have two step children who come to visit us 1-2 times a year and needed to ensure that they wouldn't be eaten alive on site! Andy made that happen! She still lives true to the Fila temperament, but she listens to our commands and allows us to choose who she can or can't trust (unless you're an intruder:). Highly recommend Wet Nose Training! read more

Our Bexar spent three weeks with Andy. While it felt like an eternity for us, I came to understand the importance of giving Andy the time he needs to form a relationship with his 'students'. Andy also takes the time needed to train the owner upon pick up so that all of his hard work can really make a difference. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andy for your pup. He loves what he does and it has really made a difference with how Bexar responds and listens to us! read more

Wow I left Teddy with Andy for three weeks his progress is amazing. I can't say enough about Andy's training my dog is completely different and calm. He follows directions and is a delight. If you are having problems with you dog call him he is the best out there. read more

I HIGHLY recommend working with Andy. His methods are fun, intelligent, motivating and always positive, setting your pup up for success. Andy loves what he does and this translates in a very kind and positive but also consequent training atmosphere. He helped me understand my dog better. You'll get a lot of tail wagging and big smiles. He's been helping me with my 10m old lab since February and it's been an amazing improvement. I used to get compliments for my handsome dog, now it's compliments for how well trained he is. I have so much fun now spending time with my dog and his training. I tried 2 other trainers before.. not so good, pup had nervous diarrhea and showed signs of fear when I got him back from boarding. read more

Wet Nose Training - Perfect "down stay" in doggy Disneyland - Pet Training Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

This review has been years in the making. We originally took our 1 year old coonhound, Nash in 2018 for the board and train program. Andy kept us informed throughout the training and Nash came back happy and we'll behaved. I was worried he be too much of a robot coming back but he kept his goofy attitude while also minding his manners. Not only could we not be happier with Nash's training but we found a boarding faculty for life. I never feel guilty or worried leaving Nash, knowing he's getting a vaca too visiting and playing with his friends. Andy and his staff are always professional and you can tell they love what the do. I always feel comfortable knowing our pup is in amazing hands. read more

Andy is an intuitive, brilliant trainer. We had seen the results of his work with a friends dog. Now we have had the chance to work with Andy and it was so great to see him bring our the best in Ernie. So educational for us too. Highly recommend!!!! read more

Andy has done such a good job not only training our baby Luke a precocious black lab mix and us that two years later he is so good we no longer have to use his training collar and he has stopped running off. He is happy and so well adjusted that it is harmonious in our house now. Andy truly is a dog whisperer. I can't thank him enough for his wonderful training of our boy. Also knowing we can always board him in a safe and loving environment. read more

We couldn't be happier with Andy and the Wet Nose Dog Training program! We selected Andy because of the wonderful referrals we got from friends who have used him, and after meeting him saw how good he is with dogs and how much loves and understands them. We also appreciated his personable and communicative manner, and knew his 3 week board and train program was perfect for our dog. While many other training programs are 2 weeks, Andy does three because he wants to use the initial time to bond, connect and build trust with the dogs before jumping into full on training. We also liked that he only works with a few dogs at a time and gives them his undivided attention. Andy kept in touch with us the entire time our puppy was with him, sent us pictures of them swimming at the lake or going to stores like Home Depot or eating out at restaurants to practice manners. Three weeks later when we went for our "back home" training session we couldn't believe the difference! Our puppy was calm, attentive, listening and most of all very happy. We could tell how much she liked and trusted Andy. Now that we've had her home for a while, we see the huge difference with us. Walking with her is a joy, she listens very well, her recall is great, no more jumping on visitors or mouthing them - she truly is the perfect dog while retaining her happy, goofy, loving personality. Wet Nose Dog Training has made our good dog great and we highly recommend Andy! read more

Andy is a great trainer. He helped so much with my Pittbull who had dog agressive issues. He is well behaved and now ignores other dogs. My dog new behavior is really great and really shocked my family and I. Andy always responded quickly to my msg and kept me updated on Micky. I highly recommend this place. I never once doubted Andy and I felt safe leaving my dog with him. read more

I would give him 100 stars if I could. Andy gave us back a completely different dog. He is worth every single dollar! Book him as soon as you can. Our dog is a golden doodle and very active, a puppy, and she has young children that live with her so she is very stimulated. When we got her back she was very calm and her obedient behaviors were a complete 180 from when we left her. I will never use anyone else. read more

Andy is by far the best trainer I have ever been exposed to. In the past I have tried more well known trainers, spent lots of money and was treated as a "number" and as a result our relationship with our dog suffered. With a new puppy and the desire to get it right we did a lot of research and found Andy. We introduced our French Bull Dog Rocky to Andy at Wet Nose at a very young age and could not be more happy with the results. First off Rocky was extremely responsive to Andy and my belief is that it is because Andy loves what he does, loves Rocky and is extremely knowledgable in his craft. Andy is personable and treats Rocky like his own. He is extremely positive and his methods develop results and have forged a life long relationship with Rocky and us. Andy and Wet Nose were one of the best decisions we have ever made. I am confident in recommending him to anyone. read more

Andy took on my baby for a 2 week board and train. He's a pit bull and loves to act like a small dog and jump just about any other dog in sight. He's great at home with me and Dad but whines when we have guests and could drag me down the block choking himself out. I wanted to take him on walks that are more enjoyable for the two of us. Since he's been home we have gone on our first walk together and he was amazing. I could not believe the heel my baby performed all the way to the mailbox and back. I used to love hiking in CA and would love to start bringing him again with his newfound obedience. I'm looking forward to the follow up one on one sessions. Andy was great and I would do it all over again for the tools I have now. read more

Andy helped me and my 10 month old golden retriever. He is now 13 months old and very well behaved due to the training tools Andy taught us. I personally learned a lot from Andy, how to command my puppies attention, how to get him to come on command, how to walk him without pulling, how to sit when a stranger walks up to us and how to sit in his bed when we are eating (he refers to it as place). When we have guests over, they are very impressed with our puppies manners. Even upon completion of your training Andy is very accessible if you have any questions. I highly recommend Wet Nose Training, owner Andy. read more

My one year old dog, Maggie, just finished her 3.5 week training at Wet Nose Training and I could not be happier with the results. My father swears Andy is a magician but I think he is just a master dog trainer who loves all the dogs he works with and it shows. Maggie now has the fundamentals of training down so well I can continue to work with her and Andy during our follow ups and she will only improve. She is much happier as she now understands the expectations and I am happier not getting after her all the time. If you are thinking of sending your precious pup anywhere for training, I cannot recommend Wet Nose Training enough. read more

Andy helped us with our rescue Doberman. She was in desperate need of training and gaining self confidence. Andy is a miracle worker and a true dog whisperer. Tiara is home and such a happier more confident trained dog. I recommend Andy to anyone looking for a trainer, you will not be disappointed. read more

Andy was a life saver to my sweet pup Remy! I rescued Remy when she was 6 months old and she was petrified of men and anyone in uniform. She had been physically abused by her male owner for the first 6 months of her life. Taking her out in public was not an option because she would constantly cower and shake when a man came near us. After spending 2 weeks with Andy she not only came back a more obedient dog but one of the most loving, sweet, and gentle dogs there are. To this day(Almost 3 years later) I receive multiple compliments on how well trained she is in public, with distractions and children. She has not only made a move across country(traveling like a champ in a car for 22 hours straight) but also LOVES going to the parks, shopping centers, hanging out with all of our friends/ family and especially my fiance, who I think she loves more than me. Thanks to Andy I believe Remy is able to enjoy life to its absolute fullest! You will make no mistake by entrusting Andy with your favorite 4 legged friend! read more

Andy is great! He is very knowledgeable, caring and professional. Although he offers private lessons for the dogs he was able to see all 5 of my dogs and give me great help and advise. He's there to prevent any unnecessary behavior from the dogs and helps correct them taking the safest precautions. I felt 100% safe with my dogs in his hands. He offers great rates and I will definitely come back to andy for continued help. read more

Andy is absolutely the San Antonio Dog Whisperer!! I'm a single woman, active duty military with both rescue black lab and German Shepherd mix. And they were terrible!! My lab made "Marley" look like a saint and my Shepard had aggression issues. I left my two babies on Andy's care for 2 weeks and he gave me back angels!!! My pups are perfectly behaved and have exponentially increased my quality of life!! This man is a miracle worker!! I recommend Andy to all of my friends and you should too!! Absolutely a 5/5!!!! read more

Better than the Dog Whisperer! Andy Madison is an amazing dog trainer! He came to my home to help our family with some aggression issues that one of our Labs was having. He was able to work with Beau and show our family how to handle him. After seeing these results we had him keep our 10 week old lab puppy, Duke, for a two week board and train session. Duke is very high energy but very well behaved and manageable thanks to Andy! Andy provides very thorough follow up after the board and train to insure the owner is comfortable with the training techniques. I can't say enough positive things! read more

Andy took our insane little rescue schnauzer,Max, and turned him into a dog we could live with! We rescued our guy and he became super territorial of me and tried to chase/bite my husband every morning. As you can imagine this was becoming an issue. Andy, is an absolute miracle worker and we can not recommend him enough. We were very worried about leaving him for 2-3 weeks but he kept in frequent contact and Max was quite attached to him so he was quite content in his care! read more

Andy was recommended to us by a friend, and I am so grateful! He is a wealth of knowledge, patient and kind. He took the time to really get to know us and our puppy first, then gave us practical tips and demonstrations that work like magic! He even followed up with an email full of tips and specific tools of the trade that work well. His center is clean and open, with lots of room for training and interaction with your dog. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andy and Wet Nose Training to anyone. Try them, your dog will love you for it! read more

WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! We took a rambunctious golden retriever puppy to Andy, and hoped for the best. Our goal was basically for him to walk with us on a leash without pulling us down the street, listen to commands, and not jump on everyone. We got our first video update after one week and could not believe the progress Andy had made. It was amazing! Hard to believe it was the same dog we dropped off. In just 3 weeks of training, our dog is so different. He understands commands and follows them. (sit, let's go, stay, place). He understands and responds to, "No" which makes life so much easier. He walks with us off-leash and stays right by our side. Before the training, we were putting up gates, and putting him in crates constantly. Now, all we have to do is say, "No" and he is good. Andy was so helpful and informative. He gave us great ideas and helped us create positive boundaries. It made all the difference. I was very impressed with the positive reinforcement that we saw. It seems that Andy loved our dog and was so great with him. He used corrections appropriately but mainly focused on positive reinforcement. I could tell his interaction with our dog was amazing. I believe that is why he got so much done so quickly. The best part is, we now get compliments on our dog wherever we go. People say, "Your dog is so well behaved!" This is ALL due to Andy and his training. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Wet Nose Training. We are so glad we did this because now our dog is wonderful to be around. read more

I have a 4 year old rescue dog that had issues with anxiety and would mark everything in sight. He's a sweet boy; he just needed some fine-tuning. My dog worked with Andy for 3 weeks. He came home a completely different dog. He's much more confident and obedient. Working with Andy was a great experience! I highly recommend him. read more

I canNOT say enough about Andy and Wet Nose Training. I have a 2 year old shepherd/lab mix rescue and a 6 month old lab puppy. Our dogs are our children! We knew we wanted them to be trained but we were not going to leave them with just anyone. As soon as we called and then went out and met Andy, we knew we had found the best trainer around. The facilities are spotless and very welcoming. Andy is the best trainer we have ever, ever met. He is kind, patient, loving and VERY knowledgable. He was patient with me as I texted him ALL the time to check in on our boys. He would always respond with pictures/videos and updates. In every pictures, our dogs were so happy and relaxed. I was especially worried about or rescue as he was horribly abused before we found him and he was terrified of men. Andy was able to show our rescue that not all men are mean and for the first time, ever, our rescue trusted a man and even grew to love him. It was nothing short of a miracle. After two weeks of board and train, we picked our dogs up and truly could not believe what they had learned. They were DIFFERENT DOGS. They were happy, confident, and well-behaved. Andy knows that the most important part is continuing the training once we get home so spent two hours going over the training commands with me. He wanted to make sure I was comfortable carrying on their training/teaching at home. He is always available to answer questions. I think one of the most unique and fabulous things that Wet Nose offers is follow up sessions that are included in the general price of the board and train. Andy will come to our home or park or PetCo and work with us for three one-hour sessions- per dog!- to make sure we are all on the same page. This gave me a huge amount of confidence leaving. I know that even if I mess up, Andy will be coming to check in to get us back on track. He will also board our dogs anytime in the future and do some refreshing training. I have never, EVER boarded my dogs before this month and would normally never consider leaving them anywhere other than home but with Andy and the Wet Nose Training staff, I would jump at the chance because I know my dogs would be happy, relaxed and also reminded of their manners. Thank you Andy and the entire Wet Nose staff for taking such excellent care of our babies and for giving us the greatest gift ever! read more

Andy is a dog whisperer!!!!! I am in such disbelief! My 2 year old husky wasn't the worst, but also wasn't the best trained. She was an average typical good dog. Potty trained and basic commands. However, Andy came and changed the game! He is so amazing with her. Not just training part but how nice and positive he is with her. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to get their dog properly trained. Worth every penny! read more

Extremely impressed with Andy! If you are looking for results, go no further. We just couldn't get past the "basic commands" and with Andy's training we got exactly what we were hoping for in our female GS mix. She is responsive, attentive and listens!! She not longer chases the cats and behaves much better with other dogs. With continued reinforcement, I truly believe we will have the best companion dog. You will have to look hard to find the value and quality of training that Andy offers. We did opt for the 3 weeks and I really think it made the difference in our shelter rescue dog. If you are worried about leaving "your baby" with someone else, rest assured. We were very pleased to see that Andy takes his clients home with him after a very short evaluation time. He was extremely good at sending us texts with pictures regarding our dog's progress. Finally, at the pickup date, Andy spent an hour making sure we were ready to leave with the correct training procedures. Money well spent, I highly recommend Andy with Wet Nose Training! read more

Our 7 month Mini-Goldendoodle was having issues with jumping and not listening when called. Andy met with us for almost an hour one evening to talk about her issues and some advice (not even pushing us to spend money on training). We decided that having her board with Andy for two weeks would make a huge difference and it truly has. She is so much better now, and we continue to work with her to make sure she continues her education after the original training. My wife and I would definitely recommend Andy to any person looking for advice or help on training their dog. read more

Thank you so much for returning peace and sanity to my household! I was at my wits end with my dog's behaviors and was completely out of ideas. Andy is a dog genius! Kallie did the 2 week board and train program and came home a new dog! We are all so grateful for your help!! read more

Andy Madison recently had our 11 month old female puppy for a one week board and train. He came to our home to meet us and her. He observed her to evaluate what she had learned in her two puppy training classes that we had completed. He took the time to find out about our family's routines and expectations. Andy later came back to our home to pick her up for the board and train. He reviewed his plan for her for the week and what his expectations and goals for her training would be. We felt very comfortable with him taking her with him. Throughout the week he kept in touch with us to update us on her progress. When he brought her home he reviewed all that he had done with her. She had fun showing us everything that she had learned. She slept in her crate in Andy's bedroom. She had a great time playing with his pack of four dogs. Our puppy came home the same sweet and lovable puppy she always has been but with a calmer demeanor. Andy strongly believes in training with positive reinforcement. He had our puppy's full attention at all times. You could tell she adored him. He schedules a follow up session to check in to see if everything is going smoothly after the dog returns home and if you need any help. We've already scheduled another week of board and train for our puppy with Andy. I feel VERY confident in highly recommending Andy Madison as a very competent and qualified dog trainer. When he left our home our puppy stood at the window and whimpered as he drove away. You and your dog will be fortunate to have Andy to train you and your dog to be an obedient and well behaved member of your family. read more
