Stronghaus Dog Training Center

Too long didn’t read= Chris is amazing, I would have paid him double. I have a 180lb 2 yr old English Mastiff who is my best friend. He goes everywhere I go. Spends all day every day with me. After spending several thousand dollars on a kitten, I was really thinking we would have to re home him after a week. My mastiff definitely has a prey drive and his curiosity in the cat was going to end with a dead kitten. It was also quickly straining our lives. Kitten locked in one room, me sleeping separately from my wife to avoid the scratching and crying at the door all night, and just an overall poor quality of life for everyone involved. I knew I had to address this quickly. My grandmother has had 2 German shepherds amazingly trained by Chris at Stronghaus. So I gave him a call. My dog was tr

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chris was recommended to me by my brother-in-law and family friends who had worked with him—and now I completely understand why. Lucy is an eight-month-old golden retriever rescue who spent the first seven months of her life mostly in a crate. I brought her home the same week I had to put my 15-year-old dog down, and if I’m being completely honest, she was sweet, chaotic, and running my life. What really stood out was Chris’s dedication and availability. I called Chris on a Sunday night almost out of desperation, and I dropped Lucy off the next day for obedience training and boarding. We picked her up the day before Christmas—and she came back a whole new dog. And I also have to add the time spent with Chris after picking her up was more than helpful. He set the grou

This may be a long review, please bare with me…..My wife and I met Chris in about ‘08/‘09 at a pet expo, I was immediately impressed with the demonstration he was doing with his own dog. That day I got his info and programmed it into my phone for use one day when we got a dog we thought was worth the investment of hiring Chris for training. We typically rescued, I wanted to wait until we were blessed with a puppy and had a clean slate to start with, rather than rescues with many issues. Well, fast forward 15 +- years, we had the chance and I was happy to scroll to his name in my contact list! That was ten days ago, we picked up Paesana this morning, she is LITERALLY a different dog, she walks on my left side with a slack leash, sits immediately when I stop walking and starts again when I d

Chris, the guiding force behind Stronghaus, is nothing short of a canine maestro. His profound understanding of canine behavior, coupled with an innate ability to connect with dogs on a deep level, is truly remarkable. What sets Chris apart is his holistic approach to training. He doesn't just focus on obedience; he builds a strong foundation of trust, respect, and communication between dog and owner. His patience and empathy are evident in every interaction, creating a positive and rewarding training experience for both parties. Beyond his technical expertise, Chris is a passionate advocate for dogs. His dedication to their well-being is inspiring, and it's clear that he genuinely cares about every animal he works with. He goes above and beyond to address individual needs and challenges

Chris worked with my cane corso and answered all questions I had. Chris is a breeze to work with and is very informative. I felt secure keeping my best friend with him for 10 days and wouldn’t hesitate to refer him to anyone. My dog is a different dog, in the best way!
