Jerry came to our house for 4 hour long training sessions with both of our dogs. We have a German Shepherd mix named Katie, and a Cocker Spaniel named Chloe. Katie was always pretty well behaved, but timid around men, and barks a lot. Chloe was and is very hyper. We were having a lot of problems with her “bolting”, soiling couches and beds, getting into trash cans, etc. Both dogs are very loving and attached to us, but for our sanity and theirs, we were hoping to eliminate some bad behaviors.
After 4 weeks of training over the winter season, the dogs are doing much better. We have established ourselves as much needed pack leaders. We have learned the proper way to use two different kinds of training collars. Now we are able to walk both dogs at a busy ball field with other people and dogs around, without a leash. If we are using the training collars inside, we are able to control some of the negative behaviors like barking and getting into things. Chloe has stopped running from us and has not soiled and furniture from the first day of training. Both dogs stay very close to us at all times. With Jerry’s advice we were also able to try some new techniques to get Chloe through car rides without getting car sick. We know we can call Jerry with any questions/issues that might arise.
I would have to say that I am very satisfied with the training and skills that Jerry has provided us with. Of course, our dogs will never be show dogs, or perfect in the training area, but we got what we wanted out of the training and more. I would definitely recommend Jerry to anyone who is in need of animal training!
