Word of Mouth Dog Training

​I cannot recommend Word of Mouth enough! I enrolled my four-year-old dog in their 16-day Doggy Boot Camp, and the results are above expectations.\n\n​My dog now knows all the basic commands and is better socialized and less reactive on the leash. The owners and staff are the perfect blend of professional and patient, always being loving, but firm. They are punctual and genuinely care.\n\n​Whether you need serious training or just safe dog boarding, your precious cargo will be in the best hands at their excellent one-acre facility. Thank you, Word of Mouth, for the wonderful transformation!

Highly recommend WOM dog training! I was at a loss with my pup. My dog had behavior and aggression issues that I was unsure how to handle. She wouldn’t listen to me at times and was an out of control pup.\n\nI was worried Jose wouldn’t take Remi in due to her aggression issues but he helped alleviate my concerns during consultation and now 3 months since her training, she is the best pup there is! Her personality is still there and she now listens to me and other people. I can take her on hikes and pass other dogs without her going crazy. There’s still the occasional minor mishaps but when it happens, she listens right away and will go and lay in her kennel or on a mat to calm down for a bit. I am very appreciative of Jose and his team for helping Remi.

Brought my dog in for behavior work and the results speak for themselves. Big difference in calmness, focus, and obedience. You can tell there’s real structure behind the training.\nJose keeps it straightforward and gets to work.\nIf you want real improvement and not just talk, this is the place. Recommended.

I have to say Jose is one of the greatest dog trainers I’ve ever met. I was having a lot of trouble with my eight month old puppy named Buzz . We had our first one hour meeting with Jose yesterday, the dog is now able to stay in his kennel for the most part without barking, which was a big problem for me. He also knows how to heal after the one hour session. Also, he can sit and stay and stay. My mind was actually blown. For anybody looking for a trainer in the golden area or surrounding areas I highly recommend. Jose and word-of-mouth dog training. I looked so forward to having a good dog now. Thank you again Jose.

My only regret about Word of Mouth dog training is not engaging them sooner. We enrolled our dog in Jose's 14 day program to deal with some specific behaviors that were causing us stress, and not only were these addressed, but every single thing I put on my wish list has noticeably improved! Our dog was good to start with, but he had a lot of anxiety that revealed itself in some strange behaviors. Jose's program gave our dog confidence in a way that his anxiety has virtually disappeared. He is now a perfect gentleman and I can't wait to take him on all of the adventures and trips that were so difficult and stressful before. It has been several weeks since our dog came back home, and the results have stuck. I can not recommend Jose more highly!
