The Secret to finding a Great Dog Trainer




Unless the trainer comes highly recommend by someone you trust, you should go to several evaluations, I know if I was shopping for a dog trainer I wouldn’t want to feel pressured in any way, so I try and convey that to my clients, there is no obligation when you come for an evaluation at Forest Dog Training, I encourage prospective clients to check out other trainers before they make a decision.
As in any other profession there are dog trainers that are more ethical than others, hopefully you will get a good feeling about a particular trainer when you hire a dog trainer to train your dog, and maybe do your homework on what the claims of that particular trainer are.
Good luck in finding a great ethical Dog trainer, whether you decide to hire Forest Dog Training services or not.

Dog Training Recommendation From a Recent Client
In the Chicago Il area
February 4, 2011
Dear Pat,
I just wanted to take a few moments to thank you for helping us to train our loved but somewhat troubled adopted dog Lacey. Your dog training methods were effective immediately it is amazing that in 5 short weeks she quickly became a much less aggressive and well mannered dog. Over the Holidays we missed a few days but all in all we have been very diligent in going through all the commands and she has progressed very well.
As you remember it was nearly impossible if not dangerous to drive with her in the car, thanks to your methods there is no longer any barking biting or lunging, when she slips out of line smaller correction now work, I can’t believe I was at all concerned about using any kind of a negative to train my dog, that coupled with all the positive that you teach with the correct timing in applying these methods have worked a miracle in a very short time.
The training tools you recommended for us, stopped the pulling for both our dogs, I have even been able to walk them together around the neighborhood. Lacy no longer lunges at passing people, cars rabbits, or leaves.
Through your professionalism and knowledge you have given us all piece, because the thought of bringing her back to the shelter never crossed my mind, but I thought our years with her were going to be difficult. I now believe our relationship is much closer since you have taught us to communicate with our dog.
Thank you, Thank you, and Thank you. I would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone that needed dog training.
I have included pictures of Lacy and some of Izzy, I know you love them as much as I do.
With love and gratitude,
Debbie Camarano,
Chicago IL area
