Before I even got my dog, Cory’s guidance helped me figure out what kind of dog would work best for me.
Once I brought her home, Cory’s training and guidance made a difference immediately. Within weeks, Indy walked without pulling, became crate trained and didn’t dive for food even when it’s right in front of her. The quality of life improvement for both me and my dog has been huge.
Beyond the results, he’s someone I trust to call whenever I need guidance down the road.
I highly recommend Cory to anyone who’s looking to build the best possible relationship with their dog.
If you're looking for a trainer who understands high-drive dogs and real-world obedience, McRae 9 is excellent. Their approach is direct and effective, focusing on clear communication and building a confident, working relationship between you and your dog. It’s a top-tier choice for owners in the Youngstown area who want professional results and a disciplined training environment.
When we met Corey I was at my end with our 1 year old Belgian Malinois. Corey turned my boy right around in what seemed like no time at all. Not only did he get rebel on the right track he gave us the tools we need to be able to train him. I can’t give him enough stars
I had an incredible experience with Corey and training Belgian Shepherd mix he is completely Off leash trained goes everywhere with me Couldn’t be more happy with the progress we’ve made
Corey has done an exceptional job with my puppy, Koda, in her obedience training. The one-on-one instruction and guidance throughout the entire process have been truly outstanding. His passion for both his work and the dogs he trains is evident in every session.
Thanks to Corey’s expertise and the proper techniques he’s taught us, Koda now has the foundation and confidence to go anywhere. I would highly recommend Corey to anyone looking for professional, effective, and dedicated training.
