Client Reviews and Testimonials

We had a very good first day of training. Ruth is a wonderful person and Sophie liked her right away. I feel we got a lot accomplished in 3 hours. Shirley can now hold Sophie on her lap without being bitten. Both Shirley and Sophie are more relaxed with each other. Very pleased. Permalink

We had used Nicole service 3 yrs ago when we got our rottie Kali and now have used her again for our new addition Rakim a rescue pitbull/border terrier mix. Her knowledge and care were phenomenal. She understood our concerns and the different approach for both our dogs. She was very patient and also had literature for use to work from. Would use her again. And definitely recommend her to anyone. Permalink

Learned much about why Izzy behaves as she does. Same dog, much improved behavior. Permalink

Very thorough, informative. Trainer [Harv] is VERY patient with owners! Thank you Permalink

We would absolutely recommend this training. We have a dog that was rescued and you gave us the tools to make this a happy successful home. Permalink

We just moved to Connecticut and Richard was incredible to work with. He showed us how to deal with issues that arise with having 4 dogs, especially since one is still new to our family. My husband and I have just as much work to do as the dogs, and I’m sure with Richard’s guidance, we will all get there. Permalink

Jeff is a fantastic dog trainer. He is knowledgeable, amiable, patient, and has an easy laid back demeanor that inspires confidence. I have a 150lbs Great Dane that Jeff has been instructing me how to train since shortly after I brought Little OB(the dog's name) home. With Jeff's steady guidance we have made great strides towards having a controllable giant dog. No matter the obstacles that my dog would present, Jeff had the answer-all I had to do was ask. When my little doggy had surgery, Jeff would text or call weekly while OB was recovering from his neuter/gastropexy-it was always a welcome conversation. Many friends and family sought to discourage me from enlisting the help of a professional dog trainer-I am extremely thankful that I did not listen to them. The money spent towards training has been a fantastic investment towards having a better relationship with my dog/my best friend. I will forever be grateful to Jeff, and feel as though I am in debt to him for all the help/training tips for my giant goofy dog that has not always been the best at following instructions. We are very fortunate to have had your help. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Permalink

Very professional and addressed all our concerns. Gave us a lot of clear ways to address problems we have been having. Hopefully we can 1/2 as good a job (Ha Ha) as Marc! Permalink

Willie responded well to John and then to me. John was helpful giving me guidance to ensure I was consistent. Permalink

Dan is awesome! He has an amazing intuition about how dogs think, and how to relate to them. In only a couple of hours, he was able to transform our husky from a nervous, anxious, and overbearing dog into a calm, responsive and submissive one. It's so nice to finally be able to love on my dog without being nipped at. Thank you, Dan! Dan's follow up after the initial training session is also invaluable. He responds to phone calls and emails immediately, and offers helpful insights and suggestions as often as you require them. He runs his business like a true professional, and he truly cares about his clients and their pets. Our family highly recommends Dan Gusmerotti, dog trainer extraordinaire! Permalink
