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… Read full review

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.

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… Read full review

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… Read full review

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… Read full review

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… Read full review

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!

I am the owner of the dog shown in the video that is currently circulating online and resulting in negative reviews of Grant’s business. Our little rescue puppy was afraid of nearly everything—paper blowing in the wind, balls, and especially her leash. Before working with Grant, she would completely freeze and… Read full review

Grant has been extremely helpful with training my 5 month old puppy. My puppy was really struggling with severe separation anxiety and was not trusting of other dogs or other people.

Best of all is Grant's… Read full review

I contacted Grant to help with a few things for my dog and he helped me with so much!

Grant from The Noble Dogs has made my dog training experience absolutely excellent! I began training to address reactivity towards other dogs in my 2 year old lab mix.

Milo went in to Grant's training a very nervous pup! Grant identified that Milo lacked confidence which caused him to focus so much on survival mode that he could barely listen to commands. Grant worked on his confidence, and taught me commands that Milo is receptive to, on and off leash. Milo listens really well… Read full review

Grant is very knowledgeable about dogs of all temperaments, well-versed in why the methods he teaches are effective, and very patient with dogs as well as their owners.

Now, after finishing our final session, Howl was very engaged, maintained eye contact… Read full review

I’m very thankful that my neighbor recommended Grant. I wanted to learn how to use the e-collar and could not have figured it out myself. I appreciated how Grant combined individual coaching, with a month of practice, videos and text, next session, and also great reinforcement of what I was learning by joining a… Read full review

The Noble Dogs was great. I have a 4 month old puppy. Now we know how to walk her and control her in a walk. Grant helps us to have the right commands and showed us the right way to train my puppy. He gives great advice. I highly recommend him!!

I spoke with Grant on the phone and he seemed very knowledgeable, friendly, understanding, and experienced with dogs of all breeds. I'm already seeing a difference in my dog's behavior and temperament. I would definitely send your beloved canine to him six days a week and twice on Sunday.

I originally started training with Grant at Nobel Dogs when my dog was just a puppy, focusing mostly on leash walking and off-leash work. Thanks to his training, my dog is now completely off-leash trained—we regularly walk around with zero issues. I actually wrote a previous review that goes more in depth on that… Read full review

After 3 months working with Grant, I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. I had a lot of trauma from my previous dog, a pitbull.

great interaction with grant had a lot of valuable information on the concerns we had for our dog.

Thanks for the great info on ruby

We have a 1 1/2 year old Golden Retriever. Already a very beta dog, she jumped up when we came home and pulled while walking. Grant taught us ‘bed’ or ‘place’, which has been instrumental with jumping. He also introduced the prong and e-collar. I was adamantly opposed to both, but he tested both on me and my… Read full review

Grant/The Noble Dogs was great. Our rescue was scared of strangers and became aggressive whenever anyone came over or came close to me or my partner. More important than training my dog Lucky, he trained us. Now we know how to walk him and control him when people come over, he actually stays calm. Thank you Grant

We started with Grant when Tomson was only a few months old. He was having some issues with guarding and impulse control. Grant gave us meaningful exercises to do which brought us through puppyhood to his teen months. Now that he's a little more mature we are working towards obtaining off-leash freedom. I… Read full review

Great results from two private lessons with Grant. Our dog would pull on walks and was sometimes reactive and would bark in our home at neighbors.

Definitely recommend Grant’s training services, before we started training, my dog was the best bad boy ever. I found myself embarrassed to bring him in public or around my friends. He had the best intentions with bad decisions. No impulse control, 0 leash walking skills, too stubborn to listen, too smart for my own… Read full review

Grant has been fantastic with our dog. He’s not only skilled in training but also a great teacher for us as owners. Thanks to his guidance, our pup has grown into a well-behaved, happy dog, and we’ve had an amazing first eight months together. We’re so grateful we found him!

Have only had one intro session with Grant and he was absolutely incredible. Gave amazing advice. 100% recommend!

Grant is awesome! I'm glad I had the chance to work with The Noble Dogs because we had a concern between the new baby and the dog. He gave us some great instructions and now I feel like we don't have to give the dog up there's hope!
