We had a wonderful training session with Grant! He took the time to walk us through the fundamentals of touch, crate, and place training, helping us better understand how to create a more structured, calm, and balanced environment for our dog. Our goal is to help our dog build confidence, reduce his anxiety, and…
Grant is a great Trainer wonderful tips. I look forward to my next training visit with him!
Before hiring Grant at The Noble Dogs, walking my dog was a constant struggle. She would refuse to walk home, and I would often get stuck at the park or wherever we went because she would lock up on the leash and refuse to move. After just one session with Grant, I can now walk my dog home without her freezing up…
I had a wonderful experience! He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and generous with his time, offering practical tips and thoughtful guidance as I navigate life with my energetic and sometimes unruly Goldendoodle. I really appreciated his patience, insight, and genuine willingness to help me figure out the…
Grant is super knowledgeable and in even just a short time, my husband and I learned soooo much. He’s able to explain things in digestible and understandable ways. He’s inquisitive and asks for more details so he can really understand the full picture before giving any specific direction or plan, which I thought was…
Positive experience! Had a great conversation with Grant. A++
We first worked with Grant with a foster dog who had significant behavioral issues, couldn’t walk on a leash, and had never been inside a house. He worked wonders with her, so when we got our puppy, Grant was the first person we called. Our goal was to prepare our puppy for service dog work, including traveling on…
I had a coaching session with Grant today and really appreciated how helpful and knowledgeable he was! We talked through some of the challenges I’ve been having with my dog, including reactivity and off-leash training, and he gave me clear, practical advice on what I can start working on right away. I came away with…
We’ve had such a great experience working with Grant! He has helped not only our puppy, but also us, learn the skills and tools we need to set everyone up for success. With two young kids at home, getting the right training in place early was really important to us, and Grant has made the whole process feel so much…
I can’t recommend Grant highly enough! When I first started working with him, my dog struggled with a lot of reactivity/anxiety, alert barking, and pulling on the leash. I had worked with other trainers in the past and, despite my efforts, I had never been able to make lasting progress with these behaviors. Working…
Grant has helped us immensely with getting comfortable taking our 4 year old ultra-high-energy dog off-leash and taking her out with us in public. We weren't sure it would be possible given her curiosity and reactivity and were extremely nervous about it. Grant worked with us, was very adaptable to any hesitations…
I just got off my first call with Grant, and I just wanted to say how kind, professional, and informative he was. He took the time to understand the issues and make a clear and customized plan forward. I’m really hopeful that as a team we are going to help my anxious yorki 💗 we have our work cut out for us!
Grant has been amazing so far. Within one phone call and lesson I've seen dramatic improvement with my puppy. Looking forward to more!
Grant is incredibly patient and focused on safety. He helped crate train our 3 month old rottweiler puppy and helped us learn to better focus her energy and attention. Hire with confidence!
Grant is awesome, he trained my son and his husbands (Larry and Steve) dog Lucky. Lucky has never behaved better. I’m able to dog sit for them now with no issues. He is the sweet dog he was always meant to be. Thank you Grant!
Easy to work with, very knowledgeable, and pricing is very fair for the level of service.
I hired Grant right away after I completed his online form and hit sent! He called back within five minutes. We scheduled a time for him to meet my family and our Doberman puppy, Dasha within a few days. Grant is the best! He first said we needed to wait for Dasha to be six months. But he gave us several…
Grant is an excellent trainer. My dog and I have a far better relationship after getting help from Noble Dogs. If you care about your pet, you’ll take the time to learn Grant’s principles and train with them every day. This was an extremely positive experience, and my dog also loved seeing Grant whenever they…
We had a great experience working with Grant at Noble Dogs! He helped us learn how to properly train our puppy, Roxy, and gave us the tools we needed to work on her basic walking manners and leash skills. Grant was patient, knowledgeable, and really took the time to explain not only what we should be doing, but…
Grant has helped me with my dog's reactivity which she has had for years. Getting down the basics and actually correcting the behavior, not just implementing more training. My dog has improved tremendously in only 2 months from barking and lunging to walking in heel calmly near another dog. Highly recommend Grant for people with dog reactivity!
