Refined Canines:

When i adopted Buddy (Dachshund mix) three years ago, I almost gave him back. He had very bad fear and leash aggression. He had already bit someone and tended to nip when people came into the house. Darin took him for a week of intense training. Buddy came back a different dog. He now knows all his commands and listens to them. Although he still has fears, he doesn't react like he did because his focus is on me. I highly recommend Darin for anyone having issues with their dog. I'm so glad I had Darin to train Buddy because its made my life easier and Buddy's too.

I have a new Westie puppy, Shamus, who needed to be trained in sitting, staying, coming and to drop things that were in his mouth. Darin worked with Shamus in these areas and also gave me great tips so I could continue to train him every day. We started with the clicker method with treats, and Shamus is doing very well with his training. We also worked on "heal" when walking, and Shamus responds well to this instruction also. Thanks to Darin and his great training, I believe Shamus will continue on a path for following commands in the future.
