She was a rehome situation and had been trained to use a liter box in her crate. Meghan from Training Wheels helped me train Lemon to go outside and to LOVE her crate as a safe place and not soil it. Additionally, she helped me train Lemon to be totally focused on me, even with distractions. She sits when asked, she looks to me for approval and consent, and comes when called, no matter what. She is the goodest girl now - not that she wasn't before - she is just so much better now. All of this training was done with a lot of knowledge and a lot of love from Training Wheels. I also use Training Wheels for boarding Lemon. She gets so much positive attention and interaction. I was a bit hesitant at first because there are a lot of big dogs, but the times that I have boarded her, there have been dogs her size to play with and the bigger dogs play in a different area. For sleeping, she gets her own area (with door) with plenty of space for her bed and toys and then an area for going potty, should she need to in the night (Italian Greyhounds have hamster bladders, haha). The building where she sleeps and takes naps is temperature controlled and she is surrounded by other dogs in their areas, so is never alone. There are multiple outside play areas - and they designate which areas are for which size dog, and the dogs are always supervised. Training Wheels staff are always with the dogs and interacting with the dogs. They send pics of my happy dog playing outside and running and having just the best time. I feel that my tiny dog Lemon is very safe and happy there. I can't recommend Training Wheels enough for both training and boarding. Lemon is SO well taken care of and loved.

We cannot thank the team at Training Wheels enough! Oscar, our mini dachshund, has struggled with…read morereactivity around dogs and people. Training Wheels has slowly introduced him to being comfortable and having fun in a small group of dogs. Their skilled trainers have been amazing at showing him all of the positive praise while he is learning. Yesterday I was able to take Oscar (with little sis Olive in tow!) to the dog park for the first time and he had a blast. Training Wheels gave both Oscar and I the confidence to try without fear knowing we had the tools to make it fun and how to realize if it was not. Yay for Oscar and yay for the team at Training Wheels!

Our experience with Bruce at Dog Behaviors Denver has been absolutely phenomenal. We have a…read moreShepherd/Cattle Dog mix (high energy, high intelligence), and before meeting Bruce, we had tried multiple trainers, most of whom were only okay. Initially, we knew some basic commands, but the biggest struggle we could not overcome was our dog's obedience or reactivity concerns. Before Bruce, our dog did not do well with other dogs and people on walks, and guests couldn't come to our home due to fear of being accidentally hurt by him. Our lowest point was when our boy bit a lady at a local Farmer's Market, where we were attempting to do some training with him, and he became startled. We utilized as much of the training we had worked on with other trainers, but it wasn't enough. That's when we called Bruce. Here's our experience: at the initial meeting, we were very impressed with Bruce's resume and we could tell by his skill-set that he would be able to turn our boy around. Bruce had over 15 years experience working with dogs who were relinquished due to aggression or behaviors at a local humane society, turning them into confident, obedient and adoptable dogs. Not to mention, he also trained in Germany for 3+ years overseas with a military-style training for police dogs. Bruce uses a combination of high-drive reinforcement and timely corrections One thing to keep in mind though, you get out what you put in. If you aren't willing to do the work, Bruce might not be the right guy for you. We were pretty motivated and found a lot of success with Bruce. Within the first few sessions, we saw noticeable changes in our dog's behavior; he was gaining confidence through the consistency and training Bruce taught us about. Bruce's ability to fine-tune all the mixed signals we were giving AND giving us detailed explanations of why they were important to correct, completely changed everything for us. He even explains the science behind some of the techniques, which we appreciated. Our closest family and friends knew all the struggles we had experienced with our boy before Bruce. They have been so impressed with how much progress our dog has made. We would absolutely recommend Bruce to anyone needing dog training. You will be able to tell the passion and love for what he does the first time you meet him!

Bruce's guidance and tools gave us the confidence to support our pups and develop their improved behavior. He also helped us understand the underlying rationale on the tools we learned. Both of our guys have been so much better, well behaved and more at ease. We were even able to take our Grey to a fun dog run and he was one of the most well mannered dogs! We honestly can't believe the dramatic change in our dogs. Thank you Bruce!

I found Corey through a friend, and have now been a client and customer for almost 4 years. He was…read moreinstrumental in helping provide the right foundation and training cues for a Belgian Malinois puppy I was probably not ready for, and has also helped shape and continue training for two older dogs as well. What many people want is a fast solution - I can guarantee you not a single dog with perfect manners and impeccable training was sent to puppy school for a week or a month and came back perfect. It takes work, and time, and a true understanding of the drive and personality within each dog. Corey understands this implicitly. He is the right resource to help you properly develop and shape good behavior, and to help you get the most out of your relationship with your pup.

And if someone is holding a small dog in their arms - he'd jump up (he got hops) and try to bite the other dog. Serious behavioral issues. I called a few pet stores to inquire about training about a year ago - luckily, In The Lead was recommended. They've worked with my dog for almost a year & im very impressed with the progress we've made! We can now go on walks and he doesn't completely freak out when he sees other dogs. We can even walk past other dogs (still at a distance) without incident. Also, ITL does daycare/boarding so my little guy gets socialized weekly in a supervised environment! I've even had a few last minute plans ITL was able to accommodate on short notice. Highly recommended for anyone with an aggressive or anxious pup. All in all good people you can trust your furry loved ones with!

Kevin's attention to detail really impressed me; particularly in the way of his forms to get started (e.g., what John Coffey liked, where are the cleaning supplies, etc). After each walk a report card is always completed telling me about the walk, temperament of the pup, etc. Kevin and his team caught concerning symptoms of John Coffey's declining health; the daily report card triggering a vet visit. The vet visit resulted in a cancer diagnosis. Rather quickly the tumor took John's life but I really appreciate the flexibility and understanding they had when walks needed to be canceled for vet visits. After two short months with Dawg Dad, John Coffey passed away from aggressive cancer. I'm so grateful to know he got that extra love and attention those last couple of months. Just a month later, when I got a puppy, Kevin was willing to transfer the unused walks to the new highly energetic puppy, Marley Bob. I consider myself somewhat of a helicopter pet mom as she is my first puppy. Kevin and his team have been very receptive to feedback. The report cards show the new dog walker really likes dogs, particularly Marley Bob's breed, Rottweiler. Nice pairing Kevin! All and all, very pleased. 5 stars for Communication. 5 stars for Pet Care. 5 stars for Putting the Client First.
