Affordable Compassionate Dog Training llc

Three months to the day I adopted Sadie Bug from a local shelter. She had been neglected, abandoned, and just had a litter of puppies. She was only a puppy herself but when I got her home I realized she suffered from separation anxiety, was not housebroken, darted out the front door and generally lacked in obedience. I came across Avi’s business card and saw he specialized in shelter pups. One of the best calls I could have made. He came to the house and instantly won Sadie’s affection. As advertised he is affordable, compassionate, calm and incredibly knowledgeable. He taught me how to teach her what she needs to get along with the cats, sleep through the night, to be housebroken and generally listen and comply with my directions. After five sessions Sadie is a different dog and I will co

I started looking for a trainer because we have been wanting to add a new member to our pack of two. We have two sweet boys but they have been reactive to other dogs and people and we wanted to make sure we do things right to create a calm and peaceful environment for everyone in the household. What makes Avi different is that he sees dogs as individuals and he recognizes their history and personalities. Unlike most trainers, where they do constant obedience training and slap on a cookie cutter approach, Avi takes the time to understand each dog and does the work that builds their confidence and trust from within. After just our first session with Avi, we gained so much more understanding about our boys and their behaviors. The tools Avi taught us stem from a humane approach that build lo

We are so grateful to Avi for the incredible work he did with our rescue dog, Simba. When we first brought Simba home, he had a lot of anxiety and extra energy he could not control, which is common with rescue pups. Avi approached him with patience, compassion, and a deep understanding of canine behavior that immediately put us at ease. What truly set Avi apart was how he involved our son, Alexander, in the training sessions. Teaching a child how to properly communicate with and guide a dog is no small task, but Avi made it engaging, educational, and fun. Watching Alexander gain confidence while building a bond with Simba was priceless. Another thing we deeply appreciated was Avi’s professionalism and follow-through. After each session, he sent a detailed breakdown of what we worked on,

When I first reached out to Avi, I was desperate. I had just adopted a dog that has never had boundaries and is already a little older. My dog’s behavior is challenging, but in the month I have been meeting with Avi, (twice a week) has made such a difference. Shadow has improved so much and he is already a very different dog, than when I first called. I’m so thankful Avi returned my call and that I have had the opportunity to work with him to improve my dog’s behavior. I absolutely recommend him to help train your puppy and mature dogs. He communicates really well, provides after session feedback and homework :) Shadow and I thank you very much for all the work you do for us!

Avi is hands down the best dog trainer out there. He truly understands my dogs behaviors and needs. I've seen tremendous improvement in my dog Copper and he continues to just get better with the guidance I get from Avi. I cannot begin to thank him enough for his help and continued support throughout Copper's training. I highly recommend Avi to anyone who needs a kind patient experienced and all around amazing dog trainer. Thank you avi from both me and Copper!!
