I saw such an improvement with my girls listening and obeying! Mitchell and Michael are great and very personable. I love getting Update videos. My pit mix was only 6 months old when doing her training so she was still pretty young and pretty stubborn/strong willed but keeping her accountable for her actions helped so much! The way they were able to teach me was also incredibly helpful.
Mitchell did an amazing job with our Luca! We feel like we now have a very strong foundation to help us all continue to make progress and be successful ! We could tell he took great care of all the dogs he is working with. We really appreciated the update videos and saw our dog progress over the three weeks. Thank you!
Roxy is a handful, but she did come back different than when we first handed her off. She’s still young so it’s an ongoing lesson for all of us. The dog training has helped us tremendously in better controlling her.
I rarely do reviews but I’ll leave my honest feedback for anyone interested in Xcaliber. We met the owner, Mitchell, 7 months back not long after we got our German Shepherd puppy. Although we got her from a well established breeder that we’d gotten a dog from a decade ago, this pup had a completely different personality. I am certainly no dog trainer, but I am also not a complete stranger to training either. From the moment we got our young pup we could tell she had issues beyond regular puppy biting. I don’t think it was a flaw necessarily, she just had a habit of using her mouth to communicate beyond what is appropriate. She also had a habit of running from us as if everything was a game and was fixated on our cats as prey. No matter what correction method we used, she looked at us and laughed inside (or so it appeared). As our girl approached 9 months, the habits were becoming perminant traits. When we first learned about Xcaliber, we had the owner come out for a few lessons. Ultimately we decided to go with a 3-week board and train program and she is now a different dog. We were very apprehensive about sending her away for a few weeks and her not bonding with our family when she returned, but Mitchell assured us that would not be the case (he was right). One thing that was paramount for us was that she be trained in an ethical way and we were happy to see Mitchell’s standards aligned with ours. Mitchell would send us update videos that eased our mind knowing she was getting daily and sometimes hourly training. Fast forward 3 weeks and our pup is now home! On a scale of 1-10, 1 being the poorest performance, her obedience went from a 3 to an 8. Her biting went from a 1 to a 9. And she no longer runs from us as if everything is a game. Being 100% honest, she still loves to stalk the cats but at least now she is manageable with them. I didn’t expect Mitchell to reverse 150 years of German Shepherd DNA and think the dog would have a tea party with the cats after a 3 week training. What I needed from him was a manageable, obedient, family dog that quickly realized her problem behaviors were no longer acceptable and that is exactly what he gave us. We told ourselves we could train her but I don’t know that we could have acheived this level without Mitchell. Did we want to pay for her to be trained, no. Was it worth the money to have Mitchell train her, absolutely.Take this info as you will, all I can say is I’d rather pay a little now than a lot later. I leave you with these final images….one photo is what our pup did to our couch when left alone for 10 minutes at 10 months old, the next photo is her when she returned from Xcaliber training. You be the judge and best of luck.
Xcaliber trained my 11month shihtzu and she has come back a new pup! Before she would be too excited and run out the front door and loved to jump on people. After training with them she understands boundaries and knows how to stay in her place area on command. They would also send updates on her training process. Mitchell is awesome!😊
