I'M JOHN
I've dedicated the majority of my adult life to the art of dog training, blending being a good dog steward, studying cnaines and developing my craft into a unique approach that's as effective as it is enjoyable. Certified, licensed, and insured, I've got the credentials to back up my passion and ensure your furry friend is in good hands.
I'm not your typical super serious trainer. I firmly believe that training should be fun—for both dogs and their humans!
Whether we're working on basic life skills, advanced behaviors giving the dog the ability to be off leash, or ironing out behavioral quirks, I tailor each session to fit your pup's individual needs and personality. Because let's face it, no two dogs are alike, and that's what makes this journey so exciting!
So if you're ready to move beyond the age old "obedience solves everything" approach and inject some fun into your dog's training regimen while strengthening your bond along the way, I'm your guy.

MY STORY
A decade ago I left my position at a fortune 500 company and fulfilled a life long dream of working with dogs.
Growing up I was pretty obsessed with animals and had an unregistered zoo in my room complete with fish, lizards, snakes, birds, and more... but dogs were the one that really intrigued me.
Whether I was taking my dog hiking in the woods or to the beach, I was always on an adventure. Dogs continued when I met my wife and all through my kids growing up.
You could say I'm a little obsessed with dogs and being the best trainer I can be... I have studied, practiced, coached other trainers and presented at multiple conferences.
I have also volunteered, led committees, served on boards and won awards.
My goal is to use all of the knowledge and experience I have gained to help humans and dogs.
