★★★★★
Alex has been a life saver. He took our dog Biscuit, who was aggressive to other dogs, and totally calmed her down. She can be around other dogs now and she's playing again!Tracy D.
★★★★★
We did a 2-week stay and train, and Alexander did a wonderful job with my 6 year old dog breaking years-old habits. I got videos showing the progress and why he was doing each thing.Melody N.
★★★★★
Alex trained my Cavapoo puppy (and me) and did an amazing job. He breaks things down into steps we could both do at home. By the end of our 10 lessons we were on our way to off-leash training.Eileen M.
