We recently had the pleasure of working with Eddie, the owner and trainer at Critical Thinking Dog Training Services, and we couldn't be more impressed with the experience. Our sheepadoodle puppy was 3 months old at the time we worked with Eddie. Eddie's expertise and dedication are evident from the moment you meet him. He has a unique ability to connect with both dogs and their owners, making the training process enjoyable and effective for everyone involved. He met with our whole family (kids and grandparents too) for the intro meeting and provided us with a 101 session. We decided to do the 2 week board and train to help our dog with confidence building, potty training, and general training.
Eddie's training methods are rooted in positive reinforcement and critical thinking, which not only help in teaching dogs new commands but also in fostering a deeper understanding and stronger bond between pets and their owners. Our dog responded incredibly well to his techniques, showing significant improvements in behavior and obedience after just two weeks of Eddie’s board and train program.
What sets Eddie apart is his positivity, patience and personalized approach. He takes the time to understand each dog's personality and tailors his training methods to suit their specific needs. He also provides clear instructions and practical advice for maintaining progress at home, ensuring long-term success. Speaking of long term, Eddie is definitely invested in our dog’s future because he makes himself available long after the training program is complete. We still call Eddie when we have questions, or if we need to go out of town and need a safe and reliable boarding place for our dog. Our dog is now 5 months old and is very well adjusted and quick when it comes to learning tricks thanks to Eddie!
Overall, Eddie's professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for animals make Critical Thinking Dog Training Services a top choice for any dog owner looking to enhance their pet's behavior and relationship. I highly recommend Eddie to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate dog trainer.
