I cannot emphasize how life-changing having JP as a trainer was to both me and my first dog. He has a fantastic awareness of canine behaviorism and is always professional and patient.I rescued a shepherd mix a little over a year ago and genuinely struggled with managing her intense anxiety + low-stress threshold, leading me to shy away from tons of social environments. I poured over resources online for dogs with similar reactivity problems and tried my best at acclimatizing her on my own. There were so many issues I felt at a loss as to where to even start.At this point, contacting JP felt like a shot in the dark for me, but after our initial consultation, I appreciated how great of a listener JP was and how he provided his perspective. We worked through multiple sessions and gradually tackled scenarios that were always designed for the long run instead of temporary solutions. There are days when I feel exhausted from reinforcing her routines, but being able to see my dog's clear improvement and her being more comfortable in her own skin honestly makes the effort all the worth.

The most important service I can provide is educating the owner on how they can use dog psychology to have a better relationship with their dog. You as the owner must be involved in your dog’s training in order to be successful long term. What would be the point of your dog behaving perfectly with me and not with you?
Here are some common problems I’m often called to help with…
Pulling on walks
Leash reactivity
Bolting Out The Door
Recall
Excitability
What I do is in home coaching. I believe that leadership begins inside the home, in the dog’s environment. If you can lead your dog inside the home without distractions, then you can transfer that leadership outside, where you will be competing with Mother Nature.
The most rewarding part of my job as a dog training coach is seeing the growth in the human. With the right communication, and patience from the human, it’s fairly easy to change a dog’s behavior. However I believe in order for us to change our dog’s behavior, we must first be willing to make changes within ourselves. This is why I refer to myself as more of a “coach” than a traditional “dog trainer”.See more
