Without exaggeration, hiring Nick was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. As a first time dog owner (of an energetic German Shepherd puppy), I was having a lot of trouble in many elements of my day to day life with my dog. As he grew larger, it became more and more of a problem. I had trouble walking him, I could never let him out of my sight when indoors, and his outbursts of energy became uncontrollable. After going through the two week training with Nick, it’s like having a different dog. I am now able to work on my computer while he sits quietly next to me, I am able to walk him without being dragged around or having him bark at every dog or squirrel that comes by, and I am able to make him wait on his bed, even when the doorbell rings and his emotions are hightened. More importantly though, Cooper is a much happier dog in general. He enjoys his training and our relationship has gotten infinitely better now that he understands what I’m asking of him. Instead of his outbursts of energy being negative and destructive, they are now channeled into playtime and/or training. As for Nick, he is a kind, punctual, and thorough person. He is always happy to answer any questions or concerns, he takes the time to explain how and why certain things are done the way they are, and he is loving towards my dog. He is a true professional. The most obvious indicator to me that Nick is great at what he does, besides how happy and obedient Cooper is during his training, is how much Cooper loves him. I never imagined I would see this much improvement in just a couple of weeks. If I ever have another dog, I will most definitely be calling Nick again, and I don’t hesitate to strongly recommend him to anyone I know that has a dog (of any age).

Bringing our German Shepherd to Nick’s 3-week board-and-train was the best decision we could have made for our dog and our relationship with him. Before training, it had gotten to a point where it was extremely difficult (almost impossible) to walk him; he constantly lunged and barked at cars, squirrels, birds, bikes... and basically everything that moved. After training, we noticed a huge different immediately - our GSD listened to us, focused on us, and all of a sudden we were able to do so much more with him! Another change we hadn’t anticipated, is that upon returning home with us he was suddenly able to relax and chill indoors, and we didn’t have to watch him like a hawk as we always had before. Walking with him is easy and enjoyable now, and our relationship has become so much better and stronger! We continue to do more advanced training with Nick, and our GSD continues to excel. We get so many compliments on how well behaved our dog is now from friends and strangers, and he just keeps getting better!

Our long hair GSD, Gustav, spend 3 weeks at Nick's bootcamp. He was agressive towards other dogs and had other behavioural issues to correct. It was a tough decision to send him but it was worth every penny. It has now been a couple of months since he has come back and he is happy, well behaved and is calm and controlled around other dogs. We do need to continue the training and never let him slip back into his bad habits, but we now have the tools and understanding to do it and so does Gustav!! I highly recommend Nick as a professional, conscientious, straight forward and responsible dog trainer.

I can only say good things about my experience. Nick is very Professionel and really knows what he is doing. He’s very patient, gives great advice and always takes the extra time with the owner and the dog. I have a very big German shepherd and i now feel more than ever in control.My dog also feel very much more confident.There is no better felling then walking your dog no leash( I still don’t do it very much just as precaution ). No more of pulling on the leash, that’s also a very very good thing!! I recommend Nick’s training at 110% Merci!!!!!

Hi Nick!! I thought I'd write and tell you how well Aza is doing 🙂 It's been almost a year since you've trained her. She will be 2 years old in October. She is doing so good!!! Her confidence is great. She walks without pulling my arm off. On our walks, we see cats, squirrels and dogs tied up to balcony railings that run towards us ... Aza sees it all, but ignores it. Just keeps walking. Sometimes, she'll make a scooby doo sound, but she listens to my 'leave it' command 100% of the time. She is able to hold her 'place' as well. She doesn't show that fear/aggressive thing she used to do. Of course she will tell me when someone's at the door (she's my doorbell) but she doesn't act like a psycho dog. She's alert, but as soon as I tell her to leave it, she leaves it. I can now sign for a parcel, she sits beside me and doesn't move. She is now much more cuddly than she used to be. She lets me hug and kiss her. Last year, she would growl at me if she felt trapped. She's a super good big sister with little Ruby, always has her back. She's also a good teacher. Aza has become a calm dog, I feel she trusts me and my decisions now, more than ever. Recall is SUPER AWESOME .... When we go to the dog park, I don't have to run after her and catch her when it's time to go home. I just call her and in a split second, she's beside me, no fuss. Because I got her at almost 8 months, it took awhile for both of us to get to know each other. She is now my shadow, always by my side. I will never pee alone. Ever. Again. LOLLL Nick, I am beyond grateful for the work you did with her. I wanted her to have the best possible trainer/training .... and that's what she got with you!! Oh and BTW, I only put her training collar on in very rare occasions.... But I never have to press the button. She knows 😉 Thank you on behalf of Aza, I know for a fact she is happier being so confident ... and a bit cheeky at times, but in a good way 🙂 Wishing you a wonderful week!!! Lulu
