My dog had real challenges before training: leash reactivity, being a little too aggressive toward others, and major recall issues. Since working with Juan, the improvement has been incredible. The one-on-one sessions are focused and effective, and the group sessions have been amazing for helping my dog socialize in a safe, controlled environment.
My Australian Cattle Shepherd, Dingo, is smart but hardheaded. After he lunged at a small dog and its owner was hurt trying to stop him, we sought formal training so it could never happen again. He's now a completely different dog, extremely well behaved, and preparing to be a service dog flyer. Juan and Sarah also helped us change our own behavior to train him better.
We adopted a 5 year old rescue, Alfie, who was incredibly sweet at home but reactive on the leash and nervous around new people. After 4 weeks of board and train, he came home with a new confidence. He's way less reactive, and we can even take him into stores, where he seems excited to be there.
Charlotte, our 8 year old Chi-Terrier rescue, would go into a barking frenzy at the doorbell and lunge at other dogs. When she started biting our house guests' ankles, we knew we needed help. Over 3 sessions at home, her behavior radically improved, and Juan trained us as much as the dog.
We enrolled our Belgian Malinois puppy, Vander, in Board and Train at 10 months old, and Juan and Sarah made the whole process seamless. After just three weeks, he came home with tremendous growth in manners, focus, and behavior. Their Sunday training sessions have built a community of dog owners that feels like family.
When we got Frankie, we couldn't get him to listen to us. After Board and Train he came back such a good boy. Now he can walk nicely, sit and stay, and recall. Juan trained me to keep it up, and we attend weekly trainings that keep us both well trained.
I own a Belgian Malinois and asked for specific skills like recall and outing on command. Juan was honest and upfront that it would take time. After just two weeks, my dog's behavior and control improved exponentially. He was flexible with my schedule and clearly cares about training handlers, not just dogs.
I reached out to Juan to train my Scotty so she'd be ready to come home. He then spent a few days with me teaching me how to reinforce her training. It was a great experience, and Juan still reaches out, even a year later, to see how Scotty is doing.
