My husband reached out to Paul when our new golden puppy was becoming a tyrant. Paul started…read moretraining literally as soon as he walked on our porch and our puppy excitedly piddled all over Paul's boot (which he handled with great humor). He handles the dog with authority, but great kindness. He doesn't use a treat reward system, it's al based on verbal commands and encouragement. Odin responded right from the start. When he showed the stubborn side we mentioned, Paul gave us several easy techniques we were all comfortable using. After our first session, he called mid week to see how things were going and to offer a few new techniques. It only took two sessions to get us back on track. He's worth every penny!

I used Dog Guard in 2006 for my home in Westtown. Although I moved away last year in 2017 and my…read moreprecious Emma passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in 2015 I still highly recommend Chris and Dog Guard. When Emma was less than a year old she was running to and from the neighbor's house where I was chasing after her constantly. The final straw was the day that she came in contact with her future boyfriend Tully boy. I did not know that Tully boy was harmless at the time but it scared me enough that I ran all the way home and went right for the Yellow Pages. LITERALLY. True story. It was then that I had an opportunity to talk to Chris and about a week later he installed the invisible fence by Dog Guard around my 2-acre property. He also installed the monitor in the flower beds and in one room inside (where I fed the cats). The training only needed to be done once because the second time Emma wanted no part of it... She took one look at Chris and ran in the other direction.... Which means she got it from GetGo LOL not that I'm laughing really because it's sad to see your dog get zapped for the first time. But she never got zapped again. Once those yellow flags are up the dog wants no part of trying to go through them. Emma would always stay 5 to 10 feet away. Needless to say she never went through it except one time when I was on my bicycle and drove past the end of the driveway down the street. At that time though she didn't have the collar on. In her defense she was just probably a nervous wreck not wondering where I was going so she took the risk. She never wore the collar after about the first 6 months. She didn't need to. Most dogs don't. The first thing I will be doing is calling Chris to install another invisible fence after I get my next home and before I get my next dog. Note: over the years of having my dog fence I needed revisions from time to time because when I was cutting the hedges I sometimes accidentally cut the wires and Chris would have to come back. So really, he kind of became a family friend and a trustworthy source.

Great to deal with. I had an invisible fence installed by Chris and it's worked without problem…read more They are very professional, reasonable and pleasant to work with. Some time after the fence was put in someone accidentally damaged it, Chris was quick to respond and fix the fence for me. I definitely recommend working with them!

Kellie is the absolute best. I worked with a few other trainers before someone referred me to her…read moreand she's by far my favorite! She not only brings her breadth of training knowledge to the table, but she takes the time to get to know you and your dog. She actually listens when you say something is or isn't working and then comes up with new ideas based on your individual pup instead of just giving general advice. She's helped me work with my pup on resource guarding, fear aggression, leash reactivity, and more. I've made more progress with my dog in the year+ working with Kellie than I did in the first two years I had her.

If you want a dog walker that doesn't care about your dog, won't educate herself on your needs as a…read moredog owner, and just cares about the hourly rate, then you should look at Kellie and then look for someone that is the diametric opposite of her. Kellie doesn't just love dogs for the sake of their being "dogs". She is the glorified epitome of a veterinarian in the form of a dog walker. Truthfully, I say that without exaggerating. As someone that has accompanied her on her dog walks (so that I will have reference when I am a dog owner) I was impressed with her knowledge of the animal, the breed, and the preferences of the owners in accordance. Some people only care about their job as a paycheck. Kellie cares about her job because she cares about dogs. And she'll care about your dog just as much as she cares about her own. Is there anything more you should ever want in a dog walker? No.
