The boarding experience was awesome as we felt like our dogs were taken care of and well cared for the entire time that we were away. We felt like they had enough stimulation as well, which is always something to worry about. We felt this way because we got constant pictures, videos, and updates on how they were doing. I have also used Ryland specifically with my anxious bulldog for training. My bulldog is deaf and also a rescue so there were many challenges when it came to training him. Ryland showed me different ways to mark his positive behavioral patterns and switch up the negative patterns in an effective way. He was super patient, gracious, and never made me feel like I was the bad owner or my dog was a bad dog. I feel super secure working with Ryland and will continue to use him for future services around my dog.

Notched to an OTCH helped us train our newest addition to the family Cane, an American Bully. We…read morestarted puppy classes when he was 12 weeks old to get him socialized with people and other dogs at a young age. Puppy class was a great experience for him as well as for myself. I got to see how their little brains absorb so much info with positive reinforcement. Every time I visit I pick up tidbits of advice on how to help train my dog the proper way. I am truly impressed on how far Cane has come from that 12 week old puppy. He's becoming very obedient and has learned so many commands & tricks. Jorge is a big & joyful personality that's what makes him awesome in this profession. Cane immediately responds & listens to him. Let's be real, the training is truly for me it is teaching me how to be a better dog owner and how to train the proper way. Since starting to work with Jorge, Cane and I have formed a close bond, he is always focused on me and listens very, well he has his moments but who doesn't. I was taught by Jorge that training continues at home, you cant expect to just take a couple of classes and have your dog completely trained it doesn't work like that you must do the homework & patience is KEY!. Despite the stereo-type of Bully Breeds we were always welcomed by the trainers at Notched to an OTCH with open arms. Even when other trainers were quick to shy away from us or didn't feel comfortable around Cane or having him around their dogs Jorge always stood up for Cane. He let them know that he was just like any other dog and had them interact with him to show them he was not the aggressive dog the media portrays these dogs to be. I am a strong believer that owners create the outcome of their dog. That is why training is so important dogs need leadership and structure. I am 100% comfortable with having Cane around anyone young or old or any animal as I know he is being a respectable proper member of society. Obviously I could go on and on about how great Jorge is but being a dog lover I couldn't be happier with my experience at Notched to an OTCH it says a lot when I drive 40 minutes in traffic just to get my dog trained they're definitely doing something right! I recommend Jorge to everyone I meet when they ask how I get Cane to be so well behaved. Jorge will definitely be my trainers for life!

It also helps that he has become best friends with one of her recent foster fails I love that they only take small (or very calm larger dogs), allow them to cuddle in bed and most importantly only use positive reinforcement. I always trust that he is being treated as if he was one of their own. Could not recommend Lynda or her services enough. We feel so lucky to have found her!

Hi Bari, I appreciate your response, but several important…read morefacts need clarification: When we initially contacted you nearly two months ago our puppy was only 9 weeks old. We had specific training goals, and we wanted to start immediately to establish a strong foundation. She is now 17 weeks old and after our email to you on February 2nd we have attempted to contact you four separate times (via email, Yelp, NextDoor, and US mail) with no response until now. As I've explained, we've already established a relationship with another trainer and are happy with our progress. While I appreciated the introductory phone call explaining your philosophy and the emailed articles, these were preliminary to the actual training session we paid for. The $190 payment was specifically for the virtual training session with our 9-week-old puppy that never occurred. Had this been a misunderstanding, there have been multiple opportunities to clarify, including on February 3rd. When we set our appointment it was to accommodate your schedule, as you were not available till even later in the evening the day before. We had explained that we were flexible, but that scheduling a training session for our puppy late in the evening was not setting her up for success. If anything but a late evening training session was going to be problematic for your schedule this could have been communicated during the introductory call, rather than taking our payment and then not responding to our emails. At this point, we simply need you to process the $190 reimbursement without further delay. The payment was for a service that was not delivered, and we have made multiple respectful requests, including a certified letter with a March 21st deadline which has now passed without resolution. While we are preparing to proceed with the legal remedies outlined in that communication, we would still prefer to resolve this matter directly and promptly with a full refund of the $190 payment for the virtual training which was never delivered.
