Dog Trainer Testimonials

Recommendations, praise and testimonials for dog trainer, Doug Brady.

“It took Doug about 5 minutes to figure out all of my dog’s behavior issues were related to his confusion as to who was the “pack leader”. Once this was  remedied, via simple and consistent exercises, there was an amazing “trickle-down” effect. Shep’s anxiety, nipping, barking and other annoyances became a thing of the past. I couldn’t recommend Mr. Brady’s services any more enthusiastically. - Dave Pye, owner of Boston Terriers Pixie & Shepherd | Portland, Ont.
