Dogs R Us Obedience Training - Dunnellon, Florida

Paul, had our 1 yr old Golden Retriever for 5 weeks of training about a year ago and she has been doing great this past year. After her training, she was a Bark Ranger for 3 months at the Grand Canyon while we were campground hosts and happily welcomed every camper she met. She travels in our RV nicely and has been welcomed in hotels and friends homes. Walking her on a leash is great and knowing that when off leash she will come when called is fantastic. She gets lots of compliments on her behavior when we are out.

Paul is a miracle worker....Paul first trained both my sisters dogs, in an hour and a half the difference in those dogs were amazing. My dog was a lot tougher and I knew that she needed more extensive training. Paul picked up Astrid and took her for a month long training. When Astrid returned the difference was unbelievable. Astrid went from a disobedient dog that I loved but definitely disliked at times to the most loving sweet girl that my whole family enjoys being around. There is nothing we can do..from feeding her to putting on her leash for a walk where Astrid does not want to give kisses. My entire family is thankful to Paul.

We adopted a 12 yo Cairn terrier mix that had been at a shelter for a year. He had been placed twice and returned because he became aggressive toward his adoptive daddies (like Cujo aggressive). Resource protection over adoptive mommy we think. We gave Toto a chance. Rather than returning him when he exhibited the same behavior with us, we contacted Paul for help. Initially he gave us instructions on how to deal with Toto's behavior. Then he trained us in the use of an eCollar. This seemed to do the trick. Toto has not bitten my husband in months. 🙂 He is a great dog and thanks to Paul we have been able to keep him.

I have a 5 year old Hound/lab mix who had severe dog aggression issues, couldn’t properly walk on a leash, and thought she was in charge of the house (and us). Paul agreed to take her for 3 weeks, and man is he a miracle worker. She came back a whole new dog. Not only did he get the issues above controlled, he did basic obedience training, nail clipping training, crate training, and got her on a better diet in such a short amount of time! I wouldn’t take her to anybody else. Paul truly cares about the animals he works with, and helps them have the best quality of life. Thank you Paul for all of your help!

Dogs R Us is amazing! Paul and Dawn run a first class operation. Our rambunctious cocker spaniel was in need of better manners (jumping up, barking, etc). We sent George to “college” at Dogs R Us for several weeks and he did great! The best part is that Paul came to our home and taught US how to be leaders of our pack and to work with him to continue his new good behaviors. We were so impressed that we sent our little Maltese too! We highly recommend Dog R Us.

We have had three training sessions at our home with Paul. Our 7month old Cockapoo is full of puppy energy. She is much calmer now and we are making great progress towards a well behaved dog. Paul is professional and extremely knowledgeable. The way our dog responds to Paul is amazing to watch. We (the humans and our dog) are learning a lot!!

Paul is an incredible trainer. We sent our two-year-old standard poodle to him because of severe leash reactivity issues. Let me tell you, our Wallace came back a different pup!

Paul is so knowledgeable and caring. I believed that walking Wallace had become a lost cause because of how bad his reactivity was while on leash, especially with other dogs.

After four weeks with Paul, Wallace came home a new dog. He has manners in the house and is doing amazing on his walks. Wallace got a compliment today from a bicyclist about what a well-behaved dog he was. (Before Paul's training, he was reactive towards bikes and would lunge.)

I know it can be scary to send your furry friend away for training, but I am so thankful that I did. If you are looking for a trainer, look no further! Send your pup to Paul, I am so thankful that we did!!

Paul truly has a magic wand! I have 2 10 year old schnauzers that were extremely disobedient and out of control, making it embarrassing and difficult to take them anywhere. In 5 weeks time he has turned them into very obedient, easy to handle dogs! I really can’t believe the results, it’s truly remarkable. Paul gives you specific instructions when he returns the dogs so it’s easy for you to maintain control. He makes himself available to you at any time, day or night, to answer questions so you feel comfortable with what you’re doing. Taking my dogs to Dogs R Us is really the best decision I’ve ever made. I’m enjoying my dogs so much now and am not afraid to take them anywhere with me because I know I can control their behavior. I wouldn’t have believed it possible with very unruly 10 year old dogs. Don’t hesitate to take your dogs there—you’ll be grateful you did! I’m loving my life with my dogs now—thank you so much Paul for making my boys, and myself, very happy!
