Dominik is amazing! We reached out to Dominik to work on our 4 year old dog Forest’s leash pulling. Forest struggled walking on leash, would pull and lunge, and was hard to manage on walks. We did three sessions and it has completely changed Forest’s behavior. We saw the change immediately within the first session. Dominik gave us the tools, technique, and confidence to transform how Forest walks. Now walks are enjoyable and Forest is waking like a pro! We highly recommend Dominik to anyone looking for a dog trainer.

I also didn't love this idea that you have to be constantly outsmarting and distracting your dog to get them to behave.I'm so lucky that she is a wonderful dog who is brilliant with all people, animals and kids and she has a sweet demeanor, but living with her was becoming...read full review
