Absolutely LOVE Terry. We have used him for 4 different German shepherds now and he is wonderful. Any and all problems fixed in one or two in home visits. He trains owners (and dogs 😉) very well! I would and HAVE recommended him to anyone looking for training services!

Gardner dog training was the best obedience class I've ever attended. We took our six-month-old English Bulldog there for 8 weeks and they taught us so much about puppies and how they act and what's going through their mind so that we could react accordingly. By the end of the eight weeks our puppy was able to sit, go into a down position, Sit Stay, Down stay, recall and heel all on command. They were also able to help us address the issues of her jumping up on people, the dinner table, and the door when she wanted to go outside. We are left with a playful yet obedient well trained puppy. I can't say enough good things about Gardner dog training. I would recommend them to everyone!

I was fortunate to have been referred by my veterinarian to Gardner Dog Training for my 5 month old Great Dane recently. She had a rough start in life and training had been delayed due to her health issues, so she (and I!) were dearly in need of help. I scheduled an in-home private session with Terry, who is an absolute master at his craft. He knew almost instinctively what her issues were and suggested ways to assist me in correcting them which were nearly immediately effective! As she is already very large and strong, I was having problems handling her when walking on leash, and with his guidance and instruction she is walking on leash better than she ever has. He obviously has a love of dogs and is skillful at working with them to attain a well-behaved, well-adjusted and happy companion. I will be continuing Jolene’s training in Gardner’s obedience classes, and will recommend them to anyone who is in need of an excellent training program for their dog.

We just love Gardner dog training. These people are professional and experts at what they do . We have taken her German Shepherd puppy through the puppy kindergarten class and started the home obedience class but was unable to complete it and have now registered her for the home obedience class and looking forward to finishing this class with Terry and his wife. I would highly recommend Gardner training for all of your dog training needs.

Terry does not understand working dogs. I have a malinois that has confidence issues, terry came into my house. Due to the pandemic, he was the first stranger that had entered my house with my dog ever. My dog was not happy, he hit his threshold and terry wanted us to push him past his threshold. When we refused that, Terry said our dog needed euthanized. If he had any clue about working dogs he would choose to meet them on neutral grounds prior to trying to enter their homes. At least we now have a new nickname for our guy…. we call him Jeffrey, since Terry said living with him is like living with Jeffrey Dahmer, even though he woke me up with kisses this morning!
