Ben worked with my reactive dog Ollie for several months and gave our family the knowledge and confidence to understand our dog better. Ollie is not perfect but I'm not coming home from walks in tears anymore.
I’ve been working with Ben at Polite Pets for almost a year now with my Shepherd husky mix, Radar. He absolutely adores Ben and his pup, Cooper and loves his play sessions with them. One of my main goals was to get Radar to walk without his muzzle. He was very much into pulling at my clothes on walks, his leash and jumping was a big problem. With Ben’s help and guidance with his training, I’m so happy we were able to achieve the goal! I can’t express how thankful I am because this was a big important goal for me. Ben really prepares you to train your pup by showing you ways to train, providing training materials and answering any questions or concerns. He is very accommodating with hours and rescheduling. I highly recommend Polite Pets to anyone looking for guidance with their pups.
We've hired Ben for a few different sessions and he was really great with our active Shepherd/Husky, Arnold! Ben is patient, knowledgeable and clear in his directions. He definitely cares about the animals he works with and wants you to be as prepared as possible to carry out the training on your own. We initially thought Arnold was *only* motivated by food, but Ben showed us that Arnold actually has a very high play drive - which can be used as a reward for good behaviour.
We called Ben from Polite Pets for some personalized dog training when we adopted our Gemma from Darcy Arc shelter. He came highly recommended. Ben was very professional and understanding as well as patient with both Gemma and with us with all of our questions. He was very adaptable to changing situations with our schedule and the weather for outdoor training. Follow up emails with enrichment activities and training always provided. Ben uses reward based training and is patient with Gemma and let’s her progress at her own pace. We appreciate that as it allowed Gemma to build confidence. We also recently started reactive rover classes with Ben and took Gemma to his stay and play sessions I would highly recommend Ben at polite pets for your training needs.
We only have had great experiences with Polite Pets for a couple of years now. My dog and cat both love Ben. He is really professional and we love his approach to training using positive reinforcement. You know he really cares about your furbabies. 5/5 recommend Polite Pets 😊
