Comment: I brought my 10 month old Rottweiler to Paul at K9 City and left her there for a 10 day training. Prior to the training, she was jumping all over us at home, nipping (not aggressively), tearing up our outdoor cushions, and jumping on our windows and screens. I did not feel safe outside with her by myself. She was 95 pounds of puppy and did not realize her strength. I took her to K9 City where Paul worked with her and when we picked her up the changes were unbelievable. I feel her training experience was MAGICAL and we came home with a new dog!!! Paul taught us how to reinforce the training so she behaved the way we wanted. We had two follow up appointments with the entire family and our other dogs. It was so helpful!! I highly recommend Paul at K9 City and would DEFINITELY use him again. Thank you Paul!

Comment: Connected with Paul for my two Labrador puppies. I was really overwhelmed with them before Paul. He has helped so much and I now enjoy taking them out on adventures. They are a joy now Thanks to Paul’s help!

Comment: Paul was amazing. He helped us understand our dogs motivations and how to communicate with them. They are already so much better just a week after using Pauls advice. Could not have asked for a better training session. He took his time and trained us as much as our dog. If you love your dog and want to help them reach their potential. This is the place.

Comment: Second time in 20 years we’ve called on Paul to assist with some aggressive behavior in our new rescue dog.Honestly, there is no one out there like Paul (cept maybe Caesar Milan) that understands dog behavior and how to train any dog to be the best and most reliable companion one could ask for.We spent one private 1/2 day session with Paul and have practiced what he taught us daily for the past two weeks. We have seen a very positive change in our relationship with her and in her confidence growing. Can’t recommend Paul enough! You will be pleased too, for sure!

Comment: A serious lifesaver. My corgi never got out of the terrible puppy phase and would act on urges. He bolted from me one day and at wits end, I called Paul. Hes given me sooo much confidence in handling him and my dog is so much calmer and submissive. I always tell my dog, want to go see Paul? And hes so stoked to see him. I recommend anyone with any dog, any personality, any background to go to K9 city.

Comment: We have worked with Paul with 3 generations of rescues over the last 20 years and have recommend countless people to him. He has an authentic method of training that empowers an owner to become the best trainer for a dog that they can be by establishing a clear hierarchy and then working from there. Paul has helped us turn rescues with behavioral issues into loving parts of our family. I cannot recommend his training enough.

Comment: So glad we took our pup to Paul. About 15-20 years ago he worked with two of my parents dogs growing up via home visits/lessons (a Mini Dachshund and a St Bernard). So when I realized my 10 month old St Bernard mix was acting aggressive towards people after nipping at a neighbor, my parents referred me to Paul. First, we took our pup (Oliver) in for a consultation. The consultation was a little over an hour and he stayed until after 7pm to meet with us. Paul has a very direct style and was honest with us about what he saw in Oliver. While hes seen much, much, much worse, he said human aggression could be in his DNA and unfixable, but he was willing to spend time with him and had some exercises he wanted to try. I was pretty defeated after the consultation because I was hoping he would say this is fixable. But this was our reality and I wasnt going to give up on our dog just yet. We ended up scheduling him for a day lesson with just Paul at k9 city, with a private lesson involving us afterwards. When we showed up at the end of the day for the private lesson, Oliver was acting different than Ive ever seen. Paul told us about the day and said without us around, he was actually a really good dog. (Like I said, Paul is direct with his approach, so for a split second it hurt our feelings but woke us up at the same time). Turns out we dog parents were part of his problem... We were not direct/commanding enough with Oliver (babied him too much), therefore he felt the need to protect himself. He had taken obedience classes for sit/stay/lay down etc but I had never seen him so focused on leash as he was when Paul had him. Paul told us that he was even able to use some of the neighbors around K9 City throughout the day to practice around strangers (they are apparently used to him coming around with dogs who have issues). Oliver was suddenly a working dog and we were coached how to keep him attentive to us, and how as dog parents we could show him we are pack leaders. We left with some exercises that we implemented the next few weeks before booking our second private lesson to learn come - so he will come to us no matter the distraction even off leash (dogs, people, food, animals, if he has something he shouldnt etc). Olivers progress has been amazing - but no matter what Paul can do/teach he was adamant that its up to the dog owner to follow through with the exercises. We have been diligent every day in practicing at least one of the exercises, and are still cautious with Oliver around new people, but have absolutely seen a change for the better in our dog. I definitely recommend at least a consultation if you have a dog with aggression or an issue. I re-homed a dog due a number of years ago due to dog-aggression with another one of my dogs and even though he has an amazing home and family now I am so sad that I didnt know about/take him to Paul.

Comment: We did the package for 10 days boarding and training.  We were skeptical at first, but it was truly worth every single penny!  We brought our dog in for training because of his anxiety and fear of abandonment.  I was giving him LOTS and LOTS of different drugs to try to get him to calm down.  After the training I dont have to give him any more anxiety drugs. He is still the loving sweet dog that I knew he was, but WOW 10000% better behaved.  Paul seriously worked a miracle on our dog and I could not be any happier. Paul includes training for us, the owners, so we can handle our dog the same way he trained him at K-9 city.  If anyone needs a dog trainer due to extreme behavioral issues, this truly is the place to go.

Comment: Paul is amazing at explaining dog behavior. He is well informed and able to communicate exactly how to make your dog behave. He is balanced between commanding dogs to get them to do exactly what he wants, when he wants and giving praise. Couldnt be more impressed.

Comment: I do not give the owner trainer any good reviews. I was very frustrated how to express this to him and he seemed to just not deal with the issue and correct it his way was to go straight to a shock collar. To me that is a lazy way of training. It takes time to get progress as you consistently work with your dog that I know any owner would know this. But when I had one-on-one classes with this guy it was a joke therefore I did not continue my classes with him I was not happy and I felt it was a waste of time

Comment: Went today for first time very impressed with the owners commitment to dog training and boarding. My dog came home well behaved and tired. Everything you would want from a dog daycare. All of the animals there were extremely well cared for and well-behaved would definitely go back.
