★★★★★
“In two weeks my energetic little pitbull went from not listening to anything to obeying commands quickly. The little training session at pick-up was especially helpful to ensure we’re doing the right things to reinforce the training. It was tough letting our girl go for two weeks but it was well worth it.”

★★★★★
“I have had many dogs trained by the Dan Gentile Dog Training Center and all were extremely positive. Before I was recommended to Dan Gentile, I had a trainer tell me my dog could not be trained. Dan proved him wrong.”

– Johanna Schoen, Verified Google Review
