I am so pleased with the training Grant provided for my Zelda. She is a very large (80 lb) 18 month old girl who had become reactive to other dogs and to unfamiliar situations. It was to the point that I didn't feel secure walking her in the neighborhood. Grant understands dogs. He takes his time to figure out what will work for your specific dog. Zelda returned to me as a totally different dog. No more pulling on the leash, stays in her spot until I give her permission to move from it. She's much calmer and she and I are BOTH happy. She loves Grant and his dad, so I know she was disciplined appropriately but not mistreated in any way. I consider the money I spent as an investment into my and Zelda's future. I am so grateful for this training! Thank you!

We brought our sweet Nala to Grant in desperate need of help with leash training and reactivity. Thankfully, he had room in his schedule and welcomed us with professionalism and care. In just two weeks, Nala transformed from pulling us in every direction to walking calmly by our side, constantly checking in to stay on course. The results exceeded our expectations, especially in such a short time. Thanks to Grant’s expertise, we can finally enjoy our walks. His training is not only effective but also easy to maintain at home. We highly recommend Grant for his generosity, skill, and dedication to both dogs and their owners!

Brought my dog to Grant after being at a loss for what I could do for her. She would go crazy anytime she was on a leash and no training we did at home stuck with her. Two weeks with Grant and she is a brand new dog! She is receptive to correction, listens the first time she’s given a command for the most part, and walks beautifully on a leash. We are so thankful for his help, and his willingness to maintain training with refresher sessions after the boarding session is complete. If you’re worried about leaving your dog for a few weeks, trust me it’ll be worth it. Grant sends regular update videos and we could tell our dog was very comfortable around him.

Great experience, great results! We adopted a stray that was found in Savannah after the hurricanes last year. She was super sweet but had not been trained at all. She chewed on her leash when we tried to walk her, she stole anything paper and ripped it to shreds and chewed on everything. . .shoes, bottles, blankets and even the couch! A friend suggested I contact Grant for help. He called me back pretty quickly, listened to our concerns, and immediately said he could help! We took Waffles to meet him and she was very comfortable with him. They way he interacted with her put us at ease about leaving her for a board and train session. While she was there, Grant sent pictures and videos showing us what they were working on and the progress she was making. When we picked her up, he gave us some training on how to work with her, to ensure she stayed in practice with all of her newly learned commands. Since she has been back home, she has done so much better at listening, walking politely (without chewing the leash!) and playing with her toys instead of our shoes! Not only did Grant care for our doggo while she was in training, but he has also texted to check up on her even after we brought her home, to make sure everything was going well! We definitely recommend Grant, and the training was well worth the investment!

**Don’t Take Your Dog for Granted—Trust Grant!** I finally decided it was time to find a dog trainer for my Goldendoodle, Lucy. She was full of energy—constantly jumping on people, pulling me down the road on a leash, and never seeming to relax, let alone nap! I reached out to Grant, asking if he could board and train her for two weeks. I knew it wasn’t a lot of time, but I didn’t want to be away from her for too long. When I picked her up yesterday, the transformation was incredible. She walked calmly on a leash with no pulling, stayed on her elevated bed when instructed, and followed commands beautifully. Grant gave me clear instructions on how to continue her training at home, and despite the limited time, he successfully tackled the three biggest concerns I had—jumping, pulling, and restlessness. Lucy jumped twice when we got home, but after I gave the command, she stopped and hasn’t done it since! Today, she even stayed on her mat, relaxed, and slept—something I had never seen her do before. Grant emphasized the importance of continuing her training, and I can already see how his methods are making a difference. I highly recommend Grant to anyone looking for an effective and caring dog trainer. If I had left Lucy with him longer, I’m sure she would’ve made even more progress! I highly recommend.
