| - I can't be happier with the outcome thus far.
My background: I work & volunteer in the pet industry. My pets are my babies (yes, I am one of those). My dog is a 1.5 yr old pit mix that was rescued from being left to die in the desert as a puppy (6months old apx when they found her).
My dog's nickname was black mamba & Eris (goddess of chaos) because she was a wild child. I knew I needed to be a good owner & wanted to have a dog I can take everywhere so therefore, I sought out training. I did a lot of research when it came to finding the perfect trainer for my dog. After searching through many trainers I found Troy. I know he isn't the cheapest but his experience and his outlook peaked my interest. I even read the reviews on here before booking our evaluation.
Nicole on here mentioned his conversations. He is very straight to the point but, sometimes you have to be. This isn't enough to drive me away so long as you are good at what you do. I wasn't sure what to think going into our evaluation but, he quickly put me to ease. He was very thorough, explained everything and taught me more about dogs, training and etc than any class or workshop I have taken for my profession. I was so so so impressed.
After the first class, I could tell there was a change in my dog, even my parents saw a drastic change in her. What he said made sense. On the second class, I admitted I wasn't working with her as much as I prob should do to family matters and asked about doing boarding training. He stopped and talked to me about it all. He was extremely caring! He talked to me about the boarding but, really thought she would do well and it would help me with the private classes. I didn't disagree. By the third class she had it down! So we went to his group class which he was so impressive with how he had all the dogs in check and to see how well my dog was doing.
I feel as though he taught me so so much, my dog and I's bond is now closer than before. She is no longer as nervous as she was before. She is listening so much better. She still has some work to do but, she has a solid foundation thanks to Troy.
Words of advice: Book fast! His schedule fills up so quick. Don't take his emails serious - he may come off hard because he is straight to the point; but he is extremely caring and nice. Understand he isn't going to be PetSmart prices, but you are paying for results, quality and his experience. To me it was worth every penny and he stands behind his work vs. other places where you keep paying for more sessions and then it adds up to the same amount or more anyways.
