Steve Goerner2025-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is a review about Training That Lasts and Tyler. I have a native American Indian dog that before the structured walks was pretty much unmanageable I'm 65 years old and since his walks with this dog each time he comes back after 45 minutes later I see such an improvement in my dog not so much his attitude he's just a little bit more user friendly and we've done a couple of the sessions and it's just remarkable on how much he actually has mellowed out on his walks where I can handle him so much easier I'm going to keep doing them and the attitude of Tyler is just unbelievable how much he loves what he's doing. He's become my dog trainer and a good friend too. I highly recommend Training That Lasts, if there's was a sixth star we'd be putting it down! Thank you Strange Reality (Alicia Walker)2025-01-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nice, informative, patient. Wonderful dog trainer Nancy Kalouch2025-01-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so fortunate to have sent my rambunctious puppy to board and train with Tyler. After two weeks of handling my new puppy, I realized that he was super hyper, rebellious, and a tough player! I couldn’t manage to pet him without him mouthing or nipping me hard. I couldn’t take him for a walk without him collapsing on the ground or going crazy, excitedly jumping on anything that moved. and I took a couple of private training lessons, sent him to day school, and even tried to change my behavior after watching endless episodes of The Dog Whisperer. At one point, I was so desperate and exhausted that I seriously considered returning my puppy to the breeder. When I first got my puppy, I was referred to Tyler for board and training, but I decided to bypass it. Finally, I reached out to Tyler for advice. He was a compassionate listener who talked me out of giving up on my Marlo and gave me hope that board and training could change my perspective. After a few weeks away, Tyler returned Marlo to me, showcasing his new civilized, obedient, and well-behaved manners! Tyler provided clear instructions to help me maintain this behavior and generously included freebies and surprise tools to support me. It has been almost a week since the “new” Marlo came home, and I cannot thank Tyler enough for the positive changes he has instilled in my puppy’s behavior! I highly recommend Tyler for boarding and training. His professionalism, expertise, and empathetic demeanor make a huge difference! Xavier Martinez2024-12-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was great, helped a lot and gave us plenty of solid information. Will definitely keep moving forward with sessions and I highly recommend him to work with any type of dog. Bri Lar2024-12-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had the pleasure of having Tyler come to our house to help us with our rescue dog and we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. Tyler spent two hours working with our family and during that time, he was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. Our rescue dog came from a not so good home and exhibited some dominant and aggressive behaviors towards our older male Chihuahua, which we found challenging to manage. Tyler‘s experience in dealing with such issues was evident from the start. He took the time to understand our specific situation and tailored our approach to fit our needs perfectly. Tyler‘s ability to explain complex concepts in an understandable way was incredibly helpful. He provided us with practical, actionable advice, and demonstrated techniques that we could easily implement. His calm and patient demeanor made both of us and our dog feel it ease during the session. Thanks to Tyler, we now feel better working with our dogs and address their behavioral issues effectively. I would highly recommend Tyler to anyone needing help with their dog. We are also excited to start the group training When it gets warmer out. If you’re struggling with similar issues or assembly, want to enhancer dog ownership skills Tyler is the person to call. His knowledge, professionalism and genuine passion for helping both dogs and their owners make him stand out in this field. Thank you again Tyler for all your help and for giving us the confidence To be the best dog owners, we can be. Gabriela Davila morell2024-11-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just had our initial visit with Tyler and it was very insightful. He did such a great job with our puppy and provided us with many tools to help her succeed. We can’t wait to continue training and learning with Training That Last!! Adrienne Stout2024-11-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Enjoyed a group class with Training that last. Tyler was able to keep engaged with the group as a whole. Also, while working with individual dogs and their handlers. Highly recommend Angela tracy2024-11-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Today we joined our first group training, and we are so impressed with the amount of progress made in a hour and a half! Our new, young pup came in like a monster (strong dog reactivity, grabbing the leash with her mouth, trying to jump and squirm out of the lead, and then she did slip the lead) Tyler grabbed the leash, and instantly she was doing exactly what was expected of her. It was amazing to see a true dog whisperer at work. By the middle of the class, she was handling herself so much calmer, following instruction better, and sitting and laying within a few feet of the other dogs she walked in the class barking and lunging at. His knowledge, guidance, and technique is incredibly effective with all variety of breeds. Not a single doubt that with applying what you learn in his sessions, will be training that lasts! We look forward to our next experience with Tyler! Kesha Ainsworth2024-11-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family found Tyler through recommendations by other happy clients, and we feel so fortunate that we did! We have two adult dogs at home and adopted our newest rescue for our 11 year-old son. With three dogs and busy lives, we knew we needed help! Tyler met us so in our home so that he could observe us all in our natural environment and understand our relationships with each of the dogs. Within minutes, he witnessed our love-filled chaos and guided us on how to approach our dogs so that they actually WANTED TO LISTEN! We learned invaluable information about how to stay connected with our pups and maintain those relationships with trust and security. We have recommended him to all of our dog parent friends and family members. Amanda Roe2024-11-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler spent over two hours with our family on an initial visit and was very patient listening to all our concerns. He explained the approach we should take very clearly to maintain connection with our dog and gave plenty of examples on how to correct behavior in the moment. We will definitely be working with him in the future.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
