Thank you, James and Mary, you guys are awesome. I've talked to quite a few dog trainers. In the last 6 months and I choose to go with James and Mary, they took my German shepherd made her into a complete different dog. They are awesome. There is no one better than these guys to train your dog. Trust me. They have the love for people and their animals and they do a awesome, God, they are definitely dog whispers. I love them both because they gave me a peace of mind. And I was able to keep my German Shepherd. They always have my heart because they kept my family and they enjoy doing what they do. Trust me they are top notch

James is and excellent trainer would highly recommend him. His wife who works with him is excellent too. The nicest people an honest you would ever want to meet. He is the Dog Whisper of CIN and local areas. Makes his appointments and is always on time. You got a dog he is your pick.

James and Mary have made such a huge difference with our two dogs. After just one visit, our Bassett Hound puppy was more confident, a better listener and learned 8 new commands. I couldn’t be happier with the progress they have made, with both dogs! Thank you James!

Where to begin! One of best trainers we have had the pleasure working with. If you are having doubts, please let us reassure you it’s the best decision you’ll make for your pup. They take the time to give YOU and your pup the tools you as a pet parent need. Their style of training is calm, fun and special. Great with behavioral and aggression issues. They took our 3 pups from uncontrollably toddlers to a Masters degree. We can’t thank James and Mary enough for all they have done.

James and Mary are absolutely brilliant dog trainers. Their communication skills with dogs (and people) are unmatched.
They bring a sense of calm and confidence to every session and somehow transfer these attributes to dogs. It really is pure magic.
They have guided and coached our rescue, Marvin, in ways that my husband and I did not think possible. Their genuine knowledge and experience are second to none - boosted by approachability, kindness, and friendliness.
Marv adores them, and we all look forward to the next lesson!

We loved working with James and his partner Mary. We have 5 and 1.5 year old Newfoundlands who are large and stubborn and just after a few sessions they were listening and knew a whole list of commands. James made learning fun and helped our family align on the correct words and rewards to use. They are also really affordable and flexible with scheduling. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking!

James and Mary are amazing trainers! Not only are they excellent at training, and economical but they make you feel like they really care about your dog and family! I did board and train while out of town, so worth the money!

James has worked with my two mini schnauzer’s for several weeks now . He is truly a Dog Whisperer. Finley and Annie really listen to him and have learned everything we have worked on with him.
They were very reactive and were terrible to take on walks if another dog approached and now they will comfortably walk on a loose leash, by my side and walk on by other dogs without barking , jumping and lunging at them. It is truly a miracle.
They will wait, come and stay on command. They will ring a bell to go outside and Finley will also ring a bell to come back inside.
I highly recommend James the Dog Trainer to everyone. His prices are very reasonable and the results are worth it !!! Give him a call !!!

James did an outstanding job with the training of our Cavalier King Charles Harry. He was thorough, thoughtful and answered all of our questions. It was amazing how quickly Harry picked up on his commands. I would highly recommend his services.

Had the pleasure of meeting James the other day. I could immediately tell that he is passionate about what he does and it was clear that he loves his dogs and all dogs..I have already recommended him to a few people for training.

So thankful for James! We went into this just wanting to train our new puppy, and he allowed us both dogs we have in on the sessions! Willow is a natural, but scout has really transformed in just two sessions! Scout used to choke himself and throw up when going on walks, he is getting so much better at being on my hip and letting me take lead!
Support your small business’s, have more personable interactions and you get well trained pups at the end!
Thank you so much James and Mary!

This picture is from our 3rd session with James and his partner Mary. For this visit they brought along one of their dogs to help with the training of our German Pinscher who is now 14 weeks old. This was our puppy’s first time with another dog off leash. I am amazed at how well our puppy is doing since starting with James at 12 weeks old. This is our 4th puppy and although we have done basic training with our prior pups I am amazed at the difference we see this time around. James and Mary’s expertise has taught us a lot with the way we do our commands and with how we do leash walking with our dog. Great investment! Highly recommend!
