Porter loves coming to Dave’s!

Dear Dave and Kristy,

We cannot give you both enough praise!  When we adopted our dog we never had anticipated that we would struggle with his behavior.  We remember the first time we met you, you both had come to our home for an “emergency” dog training visit before the class started.  He was completely out of control and we were ready to give him back to the rescue group.  At that point, we never thought our dog would become a good family pet and companion.  The obedience classes taught us so much!  Not only did we learn the many things we were doing wrong, but the relationship and bond we have with our dog has grown exponentially.  Everything you teach makes total sense and the techniques are very easy to use.  We like being able to reward our dog with praise, not food!  Now he has a blast at the advanced classes and loves the agility exercises.  The grooming is awesome too!  He comes home looking and smelling great!  The daycare is a great resource too.  It gives Porter a chance to play with other dogs and get out extra energy.  We feel confident leaving him there, knowing that he will be in a clean and safe environment.  Porter loves coming to Dave’s Doggie Den and spending time with everyone!  Thank you so much for everything you have done for us!
