We first heard of The DogPa by word of mouth! We called 3 trainers and Nicholas was the first trainer to contact us! I was impressed by his quick response as I thought it as great customer service. We booked several beginner training sessions with Nicholas for our 8 month old Pug, Ellie. Our goal was to have Ellie be well trained and behaved so she could go to a lot of places with us. We needed her to have good social manners and not jumping on people. We were grateful how easy Nicholas made the training for us and Ellie. He helped us understand that a dog needs simple one word commands, structure and routine and some fun play time added in throughout the day! Nicholas not only trained our Pug, but he taught us a lot about dogs and their behavior. Today Ellie goes with us in stores and she is a sweetie pie and sits like she is asked to and most everyone wants to come up and see her to pet her. She’s calm, and very friendly. She’s turned into a happy girl and we know it’s from the training she received from Nicholas! We plan to have occasional dog training refresher classes in the future with Nicholas! I highly recommend The DogPa to anyone! Our dog is happier for the training she received!
