Success Stories

"As the owners of the largest pet care company in Los Angeles, we have known John professionally for several years.  When we decided to begin offering dog training services, given his experience and reputation, it made sense for us to contact him to help us not only set up that aspect of our business but to train our trainers in his method and process of training.  We have been very happy with that decision and have had nothing but positive feedback from our clients.
John remains involved with our business and our trainers as Director of Training for our company, and we look forward to continuing our relationship with him."

“I was lucky enough to be one of the first dog trainers selected to train under him for his company, Pawsitive Solutions.  From day one he totally blew me away with his knowledge, his techniques and his personable nature…you walk away from him knowing you were just hanging with the best of them. 

John flew down and helped me with one of my own clients that involved a very aggressive dog (literally trained to guard and attack) that I had never been able to touch on my own.  By the end of the lesson, my client was crying out of joy and I was actually able to stand right next to the dog petting his head.  It was amazing. 

Bottom line…HE IS THE BEST DOG TRAINER EVER…and my own clients can vouch for that.”

“After only a few weeks on your training program, Shayna has been transformed. Not only does she obey every command we give her, she is awesome on the leash, she can walk by other dogs now without a glance, and she has completely stopped chasing the cat. She can lie down next to another dog and relax in the afternoon sun while we chat with friends. It's really unbelievable.”
Wendy L., Oakland, CA



“Last night, I held my dog in one arm, and my cat in the other arm, and it was just fine. I couldn't believe it--a miracle!”
Lacy and Josh, Oakland, CA



“Three days before we had an appointment to put our dog, Sweetie down for aggression we met you for a consultation after our vet referred you to us. After you met Sweetie, you assured us that she was not hopeless, in fact she simply needed your obedience program. The next day we cancelled our appointment at the vet's office and we are glad we did. Although there is still work to be done, Sweetie's behavior and our confidence has improved 110%! You trusted Sweetie when everyone else had given up on her, including us! You continue to support us when we doubt our ability. Thank you!”
Shirley C., Rohnert Park, CA.



“Duke & Bella both were a handful to control. Bella is deaf and had aggression issues and Duke is just plain hyper. John addressed all of our concerns and was always available through phone or email to help us between sessions. We get tons of compliments from friends, family and even strangers while we are on walks impressed with their behavior.”
Joey and Karen C., Dublin, CA



“John is by far one of the most knowledgeable and talented trainers I have had the pleasure to witness. I am fortunate enough to have been trained by John on my journey to becoming a professional dog trainer. I continue to utilize John's guidance and knowledge every day.”

“The main reason I prefer John's "Expert Canine Behavior Training and Consulting" services are; Clients are happy with the results, well trained canines are better family members and have a better relationship with their owners, and it is easier for me to have a really great professional relationship with my clients without the constraints of a badly behaved patient. I have never had a client complain about John's professional services and I have always known him to be honest and fair.”

“I feel John has an exceptional gift in working with dogs, especially those that have significant behavioral issues. He does a tremendous job in teaching both the dogs and their owners and is an intricate part of improving the relationships of these dogs with their families. The response from my clients has been very positive. Because behavior problems can be just as severe as medical problems, I feel his skills are invaluable.”
Kim Henry, DVM
