Nova Pack Dog Training LLC

We did a three week board and train for our two dogs (90 lb Lab mix, age 4 and 65 lb pittie mix, age 1) and could not be happier with the results. I am a 5 ft 4" lady in my 50s who is in decent shape but was getting pulled down the street on every walk by 155 pounds of dog! I've had several back surgeries and it was becoming painful and near impossible to keep my dogs reigned in during walks -- it was constant pulling and being yanked in different directions to sniff or pee on things and it was painful and exhausting. Not only was it tough on my back being half-dragged down the street during our walks, but I also was hurting my hands by having their leads wrapped so tightly around my palms while I tried to maintain some semblance of control. The final straw: when I reached out to Nova Pa

Steve definitely has the talent to understand dogs' behavior! He is very knowledgeable to introduce proper collar, leash, or even e collar at different stages. I wish I knew him when my German Shepperd was a puppy! Steve trained me and my dog patiently; I am very satisfied with the result!

Much appreciated with Stephen from NoVa Pack Dog Training. He is the top dog trainer with extended knowledge in dog training as well as human training 😉 if you are looking for help with your dog he is your go to trainer.

Our 15 month English Bulldog, Dozer was very excitable, knocking us over on walks and had way to much energy when meeting other dogs. We worked with Stephen through in person training at our house, which taught me and my husband the best way to train our dog and then we did the day training program where Dozer got tons of reinforcement and learned new skills at his trainers home twice a week. We have a much calmer pup now. We actually enjoying walking him now, we are able to go to coffee shops and him lay at our feet and hang out and he is doing so much better when we hang out with his doggy friends. We are so happy we went with Nova Pack dog training. I couldn’t recommend Stephen enough. We learned so much through this experience and will keep coming back!

We wouldn't have a dog if it wasn't for Stephen. We rescued a puppy and we were not prepared for her special needs. We were about to make the difficult decision and return her to the shelter, but we reached out to Stephen first. We were skeptical about board and train programs because us HUMANS need just as much training as the dogs do, and Stephen was the only business I could find that even considered doing a hybrid program. After the meet and greet we knew right away he was a perfect fit. He is always available to answer my questions and truly wants you and your dog to succeed. Our girl isn't perfect after the program - but she was never supposed to be. We all now have the foundations and tools to be able to work together and continue to learn as she grows into adulthood. We almost had
