Welcome to Ziggy’s Training Troop.

Let the training adventure begin!

Hello,

I'm Jeff, your lead dog trainer with years of dedicated experience in the world of canine behavior. Drawing on a background deeply rooted in the pet industry and customer service, I've honed my skills through hands-on work with dog handlers and fellow trainers. With a solid foundation in dog training, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table. My journey in canine education has been shaped by more than three years of practical training, allowing me to understand the unique needs and behaviors of various dogs.

I believe in fostering positive and effective communication between dogs and their owners. My approach is centered around building a strong bond based on trust, respect, and understanding. I specialize in tailoring training methods to address high-energy dogs, shy personalities, and other nuanced behaviors. Through patience and positive reinforcement, I aim to create a harmonious relationship between you and your furry friend.

Ziggy, my canine companion, is not just a pet; he's an integral part of my training journey. Ziggy embodies the success of positive reinforcement techniques and serves as a testament to the power of a strong bond between a dog and their human. Together, we've conquered challenges, and Ziggy's vibrant personality reflects the positive impact of our shared training experiences.

Join us on a journey of discovery and growth as we work together to unleash the full potential of your beloved furry family members.

Happy Client Comments

  • "Consistent, communicative, & caring. Jeff’s been great so far with our skittish shepherd & has shown up rain, snow, or shine to make sure she gets her walk. Thank you!"

    Christine

  • "Jeff was great to work with. Very easy to communicate with, reliably took pictures and documented the walk and even offered to pick up a destroyed pillow he noticed when picking up my pup."

    Henry

  • "We ❤️ Jeff."

    Jennifer

  • "Jeff has been great with my pup! He was able to accommodate a dog walk last minute and came to for a visit before hand to meet her. Definitely Recommend!"

    Marcia

  • "Jeff has watched my dog consistently over the last 3 years (since I got him). Not only is Norman returned to me with his same loving behaviors, he usually has a blast with Jeff's dog, Ziggy. Ziggy is well-behaved and playful. Jeff takes the dogs on several long walks daily and provides pictures when I tell him how much I'm missing Norman."

    Morgan

  • "I would trust Jeff with any and all dogs. I met Jeff while doing dog rescue and Jeff was always there to support us and take on any dog we asked him to. He was able to help us sort through dogs with behavioral issues and train them to be the best dog they could be. Jeff understands how to work with shy and dogs lacking in confidence. He works at the dogs speed and makes sure they are having a great time while they train. I would recommend Jeff for any and all of your dog needs!"
