Canine Karma Dog Training

A Transformative Experience with Canine Karma Training - I would give them a 1000 stars if I could!!! I cannot speak highly enough about David and Isabela at Canine Karma Training. From our first interaction, it was abundantly clear that they bring an extraordinary combination of expertise, genuine care, and unwavering dedication to every dog they work with. Their science-backed training program is remarkably simple to follow, yet produces extraordinary results. My two cattle dog siblings, Hari and Madhav, arrived for their 45 day training program at six months old as typical energetic disobedient puppies. I couldn’t take them on walks on the road as they would try to eat every single thing on the ground. It was incredibly difficult to manage two high energy pups just in the garage, driv

I don’t even know where to begin. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Grace Hopper is my second Mini Schnauzer. I had a schnauzer before who was already trained, so I thought I understood the breed and what to expect. I was not prepared for how different this experience would feel. Grace is incredibly smart and full of personality — but she was also intense, impulsive, and constantly overstimulated. I love her deeply, but I have to be honest: at one point, it was affecting my nervous system. I felt overwhelmed and unsure whether she would ever settle into the kind of calm, focused companion I hoped for. That changed with David and Isabela at Canine Karma Training. From the very first interaction, I felt seen and supported — not judged. They bring such a rare combin

My experience with David and Canine Karma Dog Training goes back about a decade ago. I have an Australian Cattle Dog mix who I worked with every day to try to meet his needs, but I had no idea how to properly handle his aggression and territorial behaviors. By the time we finally sat down with David for training, Jake was about 7 years old, and our biggest goal was simply to be able to have other dogs in the house without worrying that Jake would try to rip them to pieces. After meeting with David and talking through my relationship with my Jake, I’ll admit that some of what I learned was a tough pill to swallow. But we put in the work, and the results were incredible. Jake stopped being reactive on walks. He could look out the front door and watch another dog walk by without barking. Ou

Canine Karma made a HUGE difference for Asto. Before training, he was very inconsistent at listening, and was constantly in our space looking for attention. Barking at other dogs became problem, and eventually turned into potential aggression. After working with Dave and Isabella’s team, he came home noticeably more confident, calmer, and actually responsive. He holds his place, listens, and isn’t annoying or pushy the way he used to be. The change is obvious to everyone in the family! They really say he’s a new dog. Dave and Isabella are professional, well-researched, and clearly know what they’re doing. They are honest and direct, which I appreciated. Their approach made sense and it worked. The guidance they gave us was practical and easy to maintain at home, and Asto’s behavior has s

David was a wonderful trainer for our 3yr old Shepsky. I really appreciated learning the theory behind the training before applying it. It was a very effective way for us to understand our dog's behavior. We were able to quickly address her non-existent recall to now almost total recall as well as on leash and off leash manners. I would highly recommend Canine Karma.
