Drew helped us better understand our reactive dog Skala, and we're now able to manage her with the techniques he taught us! He's able to tailor his approach to your situation, and we found the training material and in-person sessions incredibly helpful.

I recently adopted Lilly, a one-year-old Goldendoodle who had been rehomed previously. When she was returned to her breeder, she went back to living in a multiple-dog household, so the full extent of her issues either wasn't known or wasn't apparent. Within a week of bringing her home, it became clear that she had separation anxiety. I couldn't leave her alone.I started with crate training, feeding her meals in the crate and gradually increasing the time she spent there. She never really settled, though, and continued to whine and bark. I eventually worked up to an hour, believing I was helping her learn to cope. Then one day, after only 20 minutes in the crate, I stepped outside to adjust the sprinklers, and she completely panicked. I realized I needed help.Although I've had seven dogs over the years—five of them rescues or rehomed dogs—I'd never dealt with separation anxiety before. My veterinarian recommended Drew of Canine Solutions Dog Training and Dog Gone Good.While separation anxiety isn't Drew's specialty, the four private lessons we had in our home gave Lilly and me exactly the foundation we needed. He taught us practical skills like "Place," using spatial pressure so Lilly didn't feel the need to follow me everywhere, settling quietly on leash, loose-leash walking, and gradually practicing departures. Just as importantly, he helped me understand how to build Lilly's confidence without overwhelming her.The training was thoughtfully paced, with each lesson building naturally on the last. Drew was patient, encouraging, and always quick to respond to questions between sessions. By the end of our four lessons, both Lilly and I had the confidence to continue our separation anxiety desensitization training on our own.Positive training is one of the best investments you can make in your relationship with your dog. I highly recommend Drew to anyone looking for knowledgeable, compassionate guidance.

I cannot recommend Drew and his training enough! I sought out drew for dog reactivity that left me feeling isolated and anxious. The training strengthened our bond and gave me the tools I needed to handle difficult situations with confidence. One of my favorite things about our training is Drew brought his perfect dogs to teach socialization in a controlled and safe manner which was so incredible for me and my pup. After the program, I have my happy, goofy dog back that knows his boundaries and is learning to socialize again and make dog friends! I have a new dog thanks to Drew.

Highly recommend Drew and CanineSolutions for dog training. I have a very reactive young dog and Drew created a custom program to help me better control my dog on walks and hikes. He took the time to understand my priorities and taught me straight forward, actionable tactics to control my dog, especially around the triggers of other dogs, bikes and scooters.

We adopted a high energy, anxious black lab rescue who was reactive to other dogs on leash. We tried a few trainers but didn’t achieve much success until we worked with Drew at Canine Solutions! Drew worked with us to incorporate proper e-collar and prong training. He addressed our concerns, provided step by step instructions, and feedback to move our learning forward. He even looked at our dog’s nutrition and made some great suggestions. After three months of training, we have a calmer, well adjusted dog who is able to enjoy life! We highly recommend Canine Solutions!

Easy to follow training techniques that work. Love that there's lots of time in between each lesson to practice. Love the portal to be able to watch the videos and read training info.

Drew made the biggest difference in my dogs life. I went from constantly struggling with my dog and her reactivity to peaceful walks with and around other dogs and people.
