The difference is like night and day.

Our Miniature Australian Shepherd, Jack, is high-energy and high-strung. At 11 months we were ready to throw in the towel. After an ineffective “puppy class” of “positive reinforcement” (shovel treats in his mouth for everything), we contacted Greg. 

At our initial session, Greg fitted Jack with a prong collar and ran him through a few basic moves. Within 10 minutes, Jack was sitting on command, mostly heeling, and grinning ear-to-ear. We knew we had found the right trainer, and time has proved us right.

Now halfway into our second set of classes, Jack is doing great with an e-collar and we are enjoying a much calmer - and more fun - dog. It’s hard work (hint - the dog is only half of it) but worth it - and Jack LOVES doing the work. 

Greg has helped us unleash the great dog we already had but didn’t know what to do with. Jack and his owners are really getting “in the flow” thanks to Greg!

"I would highly recommend In the Flow K9 training with Greg.  I had an extremely anxious and shy dog, she was also reactive on leash to other dogs and people because of her fears. Greg's step by step training helped me and my dog gain the confidence we needed.  During the 6 sessions of Basic Obedience, I learned how to handle the leash and communicate with my dog.  She learned how to walk by my side on leash; how to greet other dogs; … big gains for her.  I learned how to help her with her anxiety with people, both at home and in the outside world. She is a much happier dog since having In the Flow K9 training.  Greg is easy to communicate with, and has a great understanding of dogs and their behavior.  He knows what the dog and handler need to be successful.  Take the training! It's worth it".

Hey Greg! Just wanted to check in with you and say thanks. It’s been a while since I’ve had a training session with you but I still remember all you taught me and try to build on the “pillars” of the basics & socialization each day. Tatertot was a hot mess of reactivity and I just wanted to let you know that we’ve progressed together so far, to the point where we’re taking busy bus rides through Seattle downtown and able to keep focus and calm even where there’s other dogs on the bus. Tonight a woman asked me if Tatertot was a service dog “working” because of how well behaved
she was during our commute! Never thought we’d be here! Thank you so much for your wisdom :)

I’ll never forget that obedience = freedom.

Just had lunch with Holly, looked outside, Huck came around the corner of the garden chasing a full grown deer. They were in an all out dead run. It took me a minute to get out there. They were all the way across a big yard, almost 40 yards from me, about five car lengths apart. I yelled " Huck Come" then "No, Come" and he didn't even hesitate, just peeled off in a long arc and came to me full tilt and skidded to a sit, fully attentive. I was shocked. Never in my wildest dreams did I think he would stop chasing that deer and come to me. He definitely had a good chance of closing the gap. I am so grateful for this kind of training, that he came, yes, but how he looked at me when he came away from something that is certainly his heart's desire. He was, eyes shining, happy to come to me. He was excited to hear about the next thing we were going to do together. He was with me 100% and we were together in something big. My heart is still pounding so hard. After all the hours you spent patiently helping us find a flow with each other, all the "everyday is a training day" homework time I spent going over and over basic things, the fails, the moments of success, it was all leading to this! I don't think there is anything I could say that would more strongly recommend your method where animals and people are concerned. You can quote me on this!
