Dog Gone It K9 LLC Testimonials

My husband and I adopted a dog from the humane society and quickly realized we were in over our heads with her. I reach out to Tom and we learned how to best communicate with our dog.
Thank you Tom for helping us learn how to best communicate with our dog. If you are in need of help and support with training your dog Tom is the person to talk to. Thank again, we have a whole new dog.

Tom is a very attentive trainer, and calls both the good and bad with the dog and person. He is very dedicated and fair. Always on time & most importantly dog centric / dog comes first –
Human is second- as it should be when training a pupI have had golden retrievers, labs, wired haired pointer & mixed German Shepard ++, all have their own traits.

Tom is fabulous & I feel blessed to have him assist me w my new pup. 🐶

I had a extremely hyperactive golden retriever and training was hard for me (first bigger dog) so I reached out for help and after I sent him in with Tom to train he came back a complete different dog, he minds his manners and doesn’t jump on people anymore!!! Thank you!!!!

Tom Is amazing, at first his method did not make sense because it was pieces, but soon into our time working together it all came together.

Tom is as straight forward as they come will call good and bad on both of us as owners and the dogs. Our German Shepard has calmed down a lot, thanks to The Help of Dog Gone It K9 LLC.

I am absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Tom from Dog Gone It K9! My golden retriever, bless her heart, was a bundle of endless energy with an attention span that lasted about half a second. Walks were a chaotic tug-of-war, and getting her to focus on anything was a monumental task. I honestly wondered if we’d ever achieve any semblance of calm.

Then came Tom. From our very first session, his patience, expertise, and genuine understanding of dog behavior shone through. He didn’t just train my dog; he taught me how to communicate effectively with her, building a foundation of trust and respect.

The transformation has been nothing short of miraculous. My once super hyper golden retriever now walks calmly by my side, no more pulling or sudden lunges. She reliably sits and stays with a release command, comes when called with enthusiasm, and has learned a plethora of new commands that I never thought possible. It’s like I have a brand new dog – a happy, well-behaved companion who is a joy to be around.

Tom’s approach is truly exceptional, and his dedication to both the dogs and their owners is evident in every interaction. If you have a dog with boundless energy or any behavioral challenges, I cannot recommend Tom and Dog Gone It K9 highly enough. He truly works wonders!

He said me !

I was at wits end and had tried everything to stop my 14 week old puppy from biting me. I watched videos and everything! NOTHING worked it just got where my arms were like hamburger.

I called him and he told me just what to do and it is working great!
