We are BEYOND grateful for Adam and Good Dog OC. Before our little pup Simba started working with him, he was incredibly reactive, barking at any dog that walked close to him. Within a week, Adam had completely transformed his behavior and we immediately saw a more confident and happy pup. We also couldn't believe how fast he learned all the basic commands under Adam's guidance, and Adam's commitment to not only Simba's training, but to ours as well was remarkable. He made sure to do as many follow up sessions as we needed so we felt confident with all the commands too, so we can't thank him enough for transforming our boy into a pup who can now live the good dog life!...read full review

I cannot thank Adam enough for the changes in behavior I’m already seeing. I’ve dropped a good amount of $$$$ on prior trainers who “specialized in mini Aussies”- who “swore they could get past her anxiety.” Tried day schooling.

Car rides give us both a headache, and even trying to walk her to and from the car is a chore (so imagine daily walks). After 2 months of working with Adam, we decided to take a trip up to Big Bear. This was the easiest time (1) getting her in and out of the car, (2) car ride...read full review
