I was looking for someone to train Eddie. H W dog training was referred to me from a groomer.
I called and spoke to Sadie who was the receptionist She asked several questions and when i said he was a bitter she wasn’t shocked.

We set up a home interview and when Hans was finished explaining his program we shook hands and off Eddie went for the next 3 weeks
At the end of the 3 weeks I went to the training center to pick up Eddie.

Hans put Eddie through his lesson gave me homework and an assortment of tools. We went home and I was thrilled with my new boy. .

Eddie is a new dog. Well trained and worth every penny. We practice every day he now sleeps with me almost every night and I look forward to our next session.
Thank you Hans

Our 1 1/2 year old German shepherd did a 3 week board and train at H.W. Dog Training. Hans is amazing with the dogs. They respect him and you can see how much they want to please him.
The follow up lessons with me helped me to have the confidence I needed to communicate with Zelda and build the relationship that will continue to grow.
Hans works with all breeds and truly understands and loves the dogs.
If you’re considering training I would highly recommend H.W.Dog Training and Hans.

We couldn’t be more thrilled with the results of our dog Hazel’s three-week board and train program with Hans at HW Dog Training! From the start, we were a bit hesitant about some of the training methods, but after seeing the incredible transformation in Hazel, we can confidently say it was all worth it.
Hans truly exceeded our expectations. He was very thorough, patient, and consistent in his approach, and Hazel came back from the program with not only improved behavior but a better understanding of boundaries and structure. The best part? Our bond with Hazel has grown so much stronger. We’re amazed by how much progress she made in just the three weeks, and the changes are already making a noticeable difference in our daily lives.
One of the things we appreciated the most about working with Hans is how approachable and available he was throughout the entire process. Whenever we had questions or needed clarification on specific training techniques, he was more than happy to offer his expertise and guidance. His support has been invaluable, and we’re so grateful for all the help he provided both Hazel and ourselves.
If you're looking for an experienced, reliable, and genuinely caring dog trainer, we highly recommend Hans at HW Dog Training. The results speak for themselves, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Thank you, Hans!

We are celebrating Tatum’s 1-year graduation from HW dog training 3-week board and train program, and I would like to thank Hans @HW dogtraining for coming into our life and not only training both of my dogs but truly listening, understanding the dynamics of our home, and tailoring his training to each dog’s personality.
I don’t usually write reviews but feel so strongly about the well-being of dogs and the incredible training abilities of Hans, that I hope this will help someone’s pup in the future.
Quickly I want to tell you all the ways my life has changed— from chaos and restrictions to peace and freedom. Tatum was a reactive puppy who would aggressively bark and lunge at people and other dogs. This became such a problem I had to limit outside time and interactions. Now, after training, she takes daily walks at the park, maintains her place, and walks off-leash with good recall, and even visits local coffee shops.
Kobie, my nervous shepherd was so fearful of e-collars due to poor training techniques of another local training company. Hans was able to rebuild her trust, reshape this connection, and now she wears her collar daily without anxiety and enjoys going basically everywhere with me.
Lastly, if you become relaxed with structure, it is so easy to get back on track with the education and training tools Hans teaches. You will never feel rushed with Hans and he will never give up on your dog. This is the kind of relationship all pet parents want with their trainer.
Here is a picture of them working on threshold training and maintaining place in my car before giving command to be free. They are just my best friends and the love of my life.
Don’t wait book your board and train. I promise the 3 weeks goes by fast and you will see your dog on camera all the time. It has changed my life. —-Thanks Hans!
