The DogPa K9 Training

We first heard of The DogPa by word of mouth! We called 3 trainers and Nicholas was the first trainer to contact us! I was impressed by his quick response as I thought it as great customer service. We booked several beginner training sessions with Nicholas for our 8 month old Pug, Ellie. Our goal was to have Ellie be well trained and behaved so she could go to a lot of places with us. We needed her to have good social manners and not jumping on people. We were grateful how easy Nicholas made the training for us and Ellie. He helped us understand that a dog needs simple one word commands, structure and routine and some fun play time added in throughout the day! Nicholas not only trained our Pug, but he taught us a lot about dogs and their behavior. Today Ellie goes with us in stores and sh

Nick at DogPa K9 Training is fantastic! We took our English Cream Retriever puppy and he was fantastic with her! He is very patient and you can sure tell he loves his job! We left there with all the directions needed to continue our work at home. He is always available for any questions you may have. Highly recommend him for all your puppy/dog training needs! Ruby says he has the best treats in Omaha! 🐶❤️

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Nicholas Bell and DogPa K9. From the very first session, it was clear that he not only understands dogs but also knows how to teach their humans effectively. We worked together at his training space, my work and home, and I was very happy with the progress my dog and I made. Not only did my dog respond so well to his methods, but I also gained valuable knowledge and confidence as an owner. Nicholas has a calm but commanding presence that made the entire process enjoyable and valuable. He’s patient, professional, and clearly passionate about what he does. Beyond that, he’s just a genuinely nice person, that I now consider a friend. If you’re looking for a dog trainer who truly cares and can deliver amazing results, I highly recommend

My experience with The DogPa was truly life changing. When I first made that initial call to Nicholas I was worried that I was too late in getting help with 5-year-old pit mix, Lambeau. Lambeau has a bite history and was so anxious/fearful it made day to day things such as walks or having visitors over stressful and unenjoyable. He’s been through some other trainings in the past, but I would constantly find myself stuck and unsure of how to move forward. Lambeau recently went through the 2-week Pawcademy and it was more than worth the investment. I love the relationship-based approach Nicholas uses and I’ve learned so much about how my cues, my mood, when/how I was showing affection contributed to his anxiety and fear. I received daily updates/videos that allowed me to watch his training

Nicolas at DogPa K9 Training is the best there is when it comes to working with dogs who have been tramatized, or are rescue animals. He did a fabulous job with our rescue chocolate lab Cato! While we missed her for 2-weeks, he provides us with daily video updates and photos! These are some of the photos he took. We rescued her at the end of Dec and in Feb she was training with Nicolas. Our dog was skittish, didn't understand comands, didn't walk on a lease well and didn't like car rides. Today she is a different animal! She is still a bit anxious, but so much better! He really is training us on how to be better dog owners. His patience and compassion are never ending and I trusted him wholeheartly with our Cato girl! Thank you Nicholas for all you did for our family! P.S. I would recommen
