Aggressive While I feel that Jason has the knowledge to train dogs, I did not feel that he was the right fit for us. He missed an appointment or two, he would say that he would be in contact to set up the next training session and I would have to reach out sometimes multiple times before I would get a response. With the dog training itself, we have a highly anxious dog and I felt that the use of the shock collar was a bit aggressive. My dog is terrified of his kennel. I feel that with Jason's training, this fear only grew. I... read more

Poor Animal Care/ Operating without a license The owner and trainer plead guilty to neglect of dogs that were in his care. Furthermore, he isn't licensed to board animals. I would never leave my dog in his care. I have attached the news story below.https://www.facebook.com/WICSABC20/posts/10153511010749283

The Dog Training Center I got my sweet little Labradoodle on March 16, 2015. I only had her a month and realized their were problems with her that I couldn't handle even after buying 3 dog training books and taking her to a puppy training class for 6 weeks. After looking in the local telephone book for dog trainers and checking their websites I couldn't find the trainer I needed for my Bailey. Finally, one night in desperation I got on the computer looking for dog trainers and happened upon The Dog Training Center, which I h... read more

Jason and The Dog Training Center Our pit bull terrier, Laney, developed a few unruly behaviors and a fellow coworker recommended Jason. He trained her dog with amazing results. Jason is a true professional. He came to our house, observed Laney in her environment and answered our many questions. We discussed the training options and decided that the most effective plan was for Laney to spend the week with Jason. Upon returning home, Jason allowed plenty of time to instruct us on how to reinforce what Laney had learned and to... read more

Who knew it could be this easy? I struggled to teach my Golden some manners. He'd jump on people, constantly pull on his leash & just wouldn't obey commands. I read all kinds of dog training books, internet articles & got advice from friends. None of it worked. Then I stumbled across The Dog Training Center's website. Jason came to the rescue. He met with us & explained why my dog was acting like this. My dog spent a week at Jason's house for some personal training. When Jason brought him back home, I had a different dog. He... read more

Troublesome husky I don't take time to write any review but I owe this to Jason. He really knows his dogs we adopted a year and a half old husky already set in some of ways I did not think he was fixable within two minutes he already stopped one of Wazowski's problems jumping up on people when you do not want them too. I knew them we were told about the right guy he visited with us and Wazowski for 45 min and set up a training schedule. Wazowski has turned into a great dog thanks a lot jason

Training We got a lab/heeler mix puppy which we heard many bad things about. Jason really helped us train him to mind commands. Jason was very flexible with my schedule as we have 3 young children and I work midnight shift so day time hours weren't an option for me. We were trained with the skills to train him to do many things! Highly recommended!
