    We hired Scott to train our puppy. After reading his reviews we thought he would be great with our…read morepup. We decided to go with the 10-day board and train. We made him a wish list like he asked of everything he would work on while he has the dog. After the 10 days, he brought our pup back and she was super excited to be back home. Scott assured us this is normal and that he would schedule a follow up visit with us and the dog to go over everything he worked on while our dog was with him. We schedule for the following Saturday. Saturday morning came and I got a text from Scott that he had to cancel our appointment. He offered to come on Sunday. Sunday came and Scott once again didn't show up and I didn't get a text until about an hour and half after our scheduled appointment that he couldn't come. At this point we realized that Scott had no intention of coming back and we just wasted $1500. His lack of professionalism and failure to show up, along with the absence of results, left us feeling disappointed and taken advantage of.

    I left our dog Francis with Scott for 8 days when we were out of state. Francis loved staying with…read moreScott and his little pup Boogie. We set up an orientation in Belmar and at that time, Francis and Boogie the pup (Scott's dog) hit it off. After we left Francis with Scott, he put me at ease by sending me his videos and pictures everyday. As a pet parent, naturally I am a bit anxious leaving Francis behind, but the regular photo and video updates from Scott I was able to enjoy my trip worry free. I definitely recommend Scott. Scott is unique in that he only boards one dog at a time, which allows the dog to get a lot more attention than in other boarding settings; as such, his rates tend to be slightly higher at around $65/night (give or take). Francis was definitely a bit sad the day we brought him home due to all the fun he had with his buddy Boogie. NOTE: must text him and sometimes remind for updates, but he does come through as he maintains a busy schedule as a dog trainer.

    We were very excited to hire Matt to help us train our GSP. Our main concerns before hiring him, as…read morewe told him, we enduring our dog does not become reactive, aggressive, and does not attack children as we have two young kids and children coming in and out often for events. Our first visit Matt told us his dog attacked his child on three different occasions. This didn't sit well with us AT ALL, but we decided to try a second session because we paid $580 and obviously wanted to get what we paid for. The second session I mentioned how our dog was very nippy and I'd like advice how to stop that. During this time he informed me his child just had a birthday party and his wife knew not to do it, but she let their dog out of the crate and he attacked a child. Matt seemed more concerned about his image as he said that it was embarrassing because everybody knew what he did for a living. This didn't sit well with me AT ALL and after discussing with my husband, we agreed that having a dog trainer who owns a reactive dog that attacks children can't possibly give us the tools we require to ensure our dog doesn't become like that. If he's unable to control his own dog then how can his advice and training rollover to his clients dogs? We hired Matt on false pretenses. Had he been upfront and honest with us that he had an out of control dog, then we would have never hired him. He refunded 1/3 of our payment due to him being uncomfortable working with us due to our concerns, which is laughable as we shared valid concerns. We 100% deserve the full refund since he was dishonest when we hired him, because no he could not give us the tools required to ensure our dog wasn't aggressive towards people or children since his dog is reactive dog. I'm truly disgusted by his business and for what he charges for 3 sessions considering he can't even train his own dog. So hire if you want, but be aware Matt has a dog in his home who attacks children so if that's the kind of dog trainer you want then go for it. I personally would rather hire a trainer who can control his own animals though.

    If I could give zero stars I absolutely would. I had dropped my 11 mo Labrador off on Wednesday…read moreSept 22 and called Sept 24 to see how he was adjusting. I was told he's doing great and coming out of his shell as he was nervous when I dropped him off. I didn't hear from anyone until Tuesday October 5th (the day before pickup) when I received a voicemail from Mallory that she needed to speak with me. When I returned her call I was informed that my dog had a rash on his neck and wanted to tell me before picking him up the next day and it shouldn't be a "cause for concern." She stated that the day after he was dropped off, staff noticed a tiny itchy, dry spot on his neck that progressively got worse. She continued to repeat that they didn't want this to be a cause for concern and naturally concerned, I asked to be sent a picture of the rash. This was no rash at all. The picture I was sent showed my dog next to a trainer with a raw, oozing wound where his jaw meets the base of his neck. It looked very infected and he definitely needed medical treatment so I immediately went to the facility to pick him up. When I arrived, I did not find my dog in the same condition as shown in the picture I received just an hour earlier. His wound was dry and completely scabbed over. The staff stated the wound looked much better than before (because it was healing). I immediately took him to the vet for a thorough exam and our vet diagnosed a skin infection of the hair follicles caused by injury to the skin. He also estimated that the original picture I was sent earlier that day was taken at least a few days prior. The vet also estimated that this injury occurred at least a full week prior to the training staff notifying me. Not only did my dog have an infected injury on his neck, he also had an infected wound on his testicles, had lost a significant amount of weight, as well as developing upper respiratory infection. Prior to sending him to the facility he was a big overweight with a very thick coat. The dog I picked up had lost at least 10 lbs and his spine and hip bones can be felt to the touch. The picture I was sent from staff showed a very obvious infection and the staff neglected to care for my dog or notify me that he needed medical treatment and attempted to treat this wound themselves with only A&D ointment. When asked about the 24 hour veterinarian on call mentioned on the training facility website, the staff stated they do not have a veterinarian on call. A bit misleading. After examining the neck wound we noticed small bumps around the sides of the wound that seem consistent with a pronged collar. We don't know how these injuries occurred but it's very clear our dog was NOT properly cared for and the staff neglected to provide our dog with basic medical treatment or at the very least inform us that our dog needed to see a vet. I will NEVER recommend the Dan Gentile Training to anyone.

    I used this training center a few years ago before yelp was available and I would not recommend…read moreusing this place! I'm writing now because we now have a new puppy and I was looking for training places and this place came up and brought up bad memories so I felt I needed to write our experience. We dropped our dog off and went on a trip so she could go through the program. Coming back to pick the dog up we couldn't wait to see our dog thinking she would be so excited to see us but to our surprise our dog was subdued and looked defeated. No tail wagging or anything. Before the trainer showed us what they did, she commented that if WE didn't follow directions we had to put $25 in this jar. We laughed it off as though she was kidding but to be honest I don't think she was. They walked us through what they did and the "progress" and mind you they had a spike collar on the dog so when you pull it digs right into their neck. The trainer was showing us and she pulled so hard my dog let out a painful yelp! It looked like torture to be honest. We immediately said we are done here and left ASAP! My dog eventually recovered and we found a dog trainer that used positive enforcements and she became her happy self again

He went to his truck to get his phone and the step broke as he was getting in. That's why he was "tinkering" with his vehicle. How about opening the door and talking to him instead of watching from inside for 20 minutes. Mike and Amy just left my home where they helped turn my 100 lb American Bulldog's negative and seemingly aggressive behavior completely around. While we know we must continue to work with him, we now know what we need to do to help him become a better K-9 citizen. They will not only show you what to do, they will explain why you need to do it. They will also explain why your dog is behaving the way he/she is. Understanding why your dog is behaving badly is just as important as knowing how to correct it. This not only includes handling your dog with basic obedience but having more awareness in social situations and an understanding of your dog's body language which will help you to proactively correct your dog before a closed mouth becomes a bite. Anyway, they were great. Call them. You won't regret it.

Next month someone will be staying again while my husband and I are away for a few days and it will make the trip that much more enjoyable knowing they will be well cared for. Susan and her staff are wonderful, caring people who are completely professional and reliable and I would highly recommend them . They always leave a note about what went on while we were gone, and I had pictures and texts sent when we were away overnight assuring me all was well. We are so lucky to have found them!
