Walker Retriever Complex

Last Friday, my wife and I were thrilled to welcome our 18-month-old lab, Birdie, home from “school” with Chad at Walker Retriever Complex. Importantly, Chad caters to all breeds and offers both basic obedience and gun dog training curriculum. This is important because EVERYTHING starts with obedience. Birdie has been a good dog since she was a small puppy but the change in her level of attention and obedience is amazing. No pulling on the leash, she pays attention to us instead of every random object in her path and is just a different dog when she is “clocked in”. I used that term purposefully, because it was important to us that Birdie NOT lose her joy and enthusiasm for being a dog, and be able to “clock in” when it is time to work. Perhaps most importantly, Chad not only trained Bi

We are repeat customers of Chad and the Walker Retriever Complex. Chad recently concluded obedience training for our third dog, Sadie. Sadie is a very energetic and athletic lab & German shepherd mix puppy. During her time with Chad she was transformed from unmanageable to amazing. She execute the here, sit, and heel commands like a professional and even learned to go potty and be quiet on command. Simply amazing. We lived in Little Rock when we sent our first dog for training with Chad. Since then we have moved to Arizona and have sent our next two dogs cross country to get the same incredible training experience at the WRC. There is no training like his offered in our part of the country. His price is reasonable and his results are impressive. If you want to comfortably walk yo

We can’t say enough good things about Chad Walker at Walker Retriever Complex! He did a phenomenal job with our Bichon-Poodle, Sophie, transforming her obedience. But the real game-changer was how Chad trained us. He gave us the tools and confidence to maintain Sophie’s training at home, ensuring long-term success. If you want a trainer who sets the whole family up to win, Chad is the one!

We recently had our almost one year old doodle mix trained by Chad at Walker Retriever Complex, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Before training, we struggled to do the things we wanted with her. We had a hard time getting her to behaving when doing things like going on walks or meeting new people. After working with Chad, Lucy has become a well-behaved, confident dog, and the transition home has been exciting and fun as we continue working with her. Chad has also been very helpful with the transition home. He’s always available to answer our questions. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional trainer who really cares.

Our dog has been transformed! She went from a hyper ball of uncontrolled energy to a well behaved member of our family. We cannot thank Chad enough at Walker Retrievers for all of the work that went into training our dog. His exceptional expertise, coupled with genuine care, has transformed our Bernadoodle into a well-behaved and adaptable companion. Thanks to Chad's training, our dog has seamlessly transitioned at home, and we can confidently take her anywhere, knowing we have the skills to keep her well-behaved in various environments. Chad's commitment to both training and the overall well-being of our furry friend sets him apart in the field. Give Chad a call. So glad we did!
