MattyG’s Dog Training

I would highly recommend Matt’s services. We came to Matt in need of training our 6 year old granddaughter‘s, 7 month old Standard Poodle puppy Solona. When Solona first arrived at Matt’s she was in need of basic puppy training. We wanted Solona to learn to respect ours and our adult dog’s personal space. Also to learn to sit, lay down, wait, heal, not jump on us and stay in her place. We also asked Matt to crate train her. We could not be more happy with Solona’s results. Solona is such a pleasure to be around. My 6 year old granddaughter can walk her with Solona staying by her side. Solona doesn’t react to other dogs when we are out and about. Solona plays fetch off leash at the park with her ball. She will sit, lay down and wait on command. She loves her crate and stays on her

I sent my dog to Matt for a 3-week board and train to work on obedience, leash manners, recall, and socialization with other dogs. While I was initially a bit nervous, it turned out to be an incredible experience. Matt kept me updated regularly with photos, videos, and progress reports. The included weekly one-on-one training sessions with Matt and my dog were especially helpful, allowing me to stay involved and learn alongside my pup. My dog made amazing progress in a positive, structured environment, and I plan to continue with follow-up lessons. I can’t recommend MattyG’s Dog Training highly enough—I’ve already referred a friend! -Michelle, Jon & Tilly

I recently boarded my staffy for obedience & off leash training and i can’t express how worth it the training has been! After 3 weeks she knows all of her commands without any trouble and now i’m able to take her on vacations without any worries!! Mat was amazing to work with, great communication and easy lessons!

Recently acquired a pup this January, and safe to say she is a lot to handle… well WAS. Our 9 month pit pup needed some obedience training bad, and as a local business owner, I couldn’t find the time myself to give her that attention. I came across Matt due to mutuals, and we did the 4 week boarding training. Safe to say, within 1 week he had our pup looking like a soldier! He did follow up training sessions every week and showed us how to work with her and explained how we can be better trainers for her as well. We are now 4-6 weeks post training and she’s holding up well! Safe to say I recommend Matt highly!

Matt was recommended to me when we first rescued my pittie, Maia, who was struggling with reactivity when people entered our home. He stepped in quickly, and she’s now doing fabulously. He did so well with her that I asked him to work with my Olde English Bulldog, Tucker. Tucker was undersocialized as a puppy, and by the time he came to live with me, he was so reactive to the outside world that walks were impossible. Cars, bikes, anything that moved would set him off. Tucker went through Matt’s four-week board-and-train program, and the results were incredible. We still have some work to do, and we already have follow-up sessions scheduled to help him feel even more confident outside. In all my years of rescuing, I’ve never had better-behaved dogs.
