Regional K-9

I am not saying that Pat is a miracle worker... but he is. We took our excited, chewing and rambunctious 4 month old Goldendoodle to Pat for the 3-1, 2 nights and 3 days training. After our two hour training lesson with Pat we could immediately see a difference in our puppy. Pat provided us with tools and tricks to help keep him in check, walk better and listen to us better. We have applied all that he has taught us at home and could not be happier with the results we see everyday. Pat is very knowledgeable and answers any questions or concerns you have with a smile. We appreciate his help with our puppy more than he knows! He is the BEST dog training in Rochester, without a doubt. I suggest him to all of my friends and family.

I can say that Regional K-9 has absolutely turned my dog's life around. I adopted her from The Verona st humane society and she was a completely unknown dog. She was a pitbull with nearly every behavioral problem that a dog could have except for aggression towards humans thankfully. With Pat's balanced holistic training approach, and with a slight change in how you look at your dog's behavior, it's a life changing experience. She was a stray before she came to me and it appeared like she never had any sort of rules in her entire life and every day was exhausting. My dog was extremely reactive and aggressive towards other dogs and within about 2 days, Pat had her coexisting peacefully with his own dog with guidance and supervision. With consistency, rules, and routines, Ellie's many behavio

Pat at Regional K9 is not only an amazing trainer but also someone who truly cares for your pet. We saw so much progress in such a short amount of time. After dropping off a nippy/jumpy 16-week old puppy, we came home with a calm, focused, and well-behaved puppy. Throughout the whole processes Pat was professional and provided continued support both during and after the training through pictures, videos, and texts. Thanks to this continued support and guided materials we were given, we have been able to keep up her training and she has grown into a very well behaved 8-month-old! I highly recommend Pat!

Pat at Regional K-9 was awesome! He is very knowledgeable. We sent our 1 year old chocolate lab to him who loved to jump on everyone he met, pull you on walks and basically run the household. We are first time dog owners and didn’t have any experience. Pat sat us down, gave us a plan and took our puppy for 10 days to retrain. During those 10 days Pat sent us videos and gave daily communication. After the 10 days we had the tools to keep going and Pat has still been there to answer any questions and support us. I highly recommend Regional K-9.

As I am writing this I just returned from a walk with my 3.5 year old Chocolate Lab who for past 3.4 years of her life was almost intolerable walking on a leash. She would pull us basically down the road and was so overly social when it came to meeting/seeing other people and dogs, encountering either one was always a challenge. After enduring enough of this, we decided to seek out professional help and found Pat at Regional K9 after some online searching. His methodologies seemed sound and he offers a free consultation, which in my opinion is a huge positive as we could meet with him, hear what his training consisted of and then decide for ourselves if we wanted to continue with the training or not. After meeting with Pat, I had no doubt in my mind this would work and we opted for the 3
