Have A Great Dog

"We got exactly what we were looking for - tools to teach Bella desired behaviors and eliminate undesirable ones. My favorite part was watching Bella when David was working with her – watching her think and focus was great fun. Thanks!"
- Kathy B., Union Square, NYC

"David was exceptional! In just 3 sessions my dog and I were walking in rhythm together – no tugging, no pulling, no more defiance from a rather defiant bulldog. Those are things of the past. Now we cruise down the street thanks to David’s help. My favorite part is when my dog speeds up when I do, slows down when I do and coasts right by my side. Thanks David!
- Sarah R., East Village, NYC

"It was an amazing experience. I would recommend Have A Great Dog to anyone."
- Mark M., Upper East Side, NYC

"It was obvious from the moment David arrived at our home that we made the right choice in trainers. He helped us understand our frustrations with Cooper's behavior and then showed us the correct techniques to overcome them."
- Joyce and Mitch L., Upper East Side, NYC

"Besides David's considerable talent and patience, he was always on time and kept his appointments. David was friendly and was genuinely concerned with Hugo's progress. He also found alternate methods to his most used techniques which personalized the training to our dog and his unique issues."
- Tom, Cindy, and Suzie M., Greenwich Village, NYC

"Thanks to the training with David, I now have a good dog citizen. I brought her to work on a Friday afternoon and she charmed everyone and impressed them all with her very good behavior, especially for a Jack Russell."
- Bob C., Upper East Side, NYC

"David was an excellent trainer and answered all of our questions and concerns. Sasha responded to him quickly."
- Eric and Carol M., Jersey City, NJ

"My dog and I had a great experience with Have A Great Dog. From our lessons with David, we have taken away incredibly valuable understandings of how to respect one another and how our relationship can work so we are both happy. I continuously integrate what David has taught me as I train and practice with my dog from day to day, and as time goes by I see wonderful results. I had worked with other trainers and had turned to books for help with behavior problems, but nothing had remotely worked until we turned to Have A Great Dog. Thank you!"
- A. Ferens, Murray Hill, NYC

"After working with David, I realized that dog training does not come naturally to the average person. David is a master of dog "psychology" and found ways to get through to my 7 year old dog! He gave me so many ideas that I never would have come up with on my own!! I'll never say "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" again!"
- Amy B., Upper East Side, NYC

A TIRED DOG IS A GOOD DOG
Mental and physical exercise are both vital to your dog’s health. Find something that you and your dog can enjoy together: fetch, long walks, romping with other dogs and training are all great choices. The time spent is well worth the results - a more relaxed, better behaved dog.



YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF PULL
When you go for a walk, is your dog pulling your arm off and choking himself in the process? Training him to walk on a loose leash will take the pressure off both of you. Ahhh - daily walks can be a pleasant stroll.
