Modern Dog Training Testimonials

I’m so HAPPY right now I can hug you!! I owe all of the success to you. You are so good at what you do is just amazing. All the advice you keep sharing with me is priceless. I see how much you love what you do, and it is contagious.

All in all He is doing great and we are extremely happy with the results. Lucky is doing FANTASTIC! The mouthing is almost non-existent. He will have a moment once In a while but we just tell him oops and back away and it ends it. The time outs to stop him are also just about non-existent. Couldn’t be happier. Thanks for the advice; It has been a tremendous help.

Thanks again for everything; we’re SO glad we decided to reach out to you. We found our “people training” to be enjoyable and really enlightening, and we walked away from the session with a good understanding of how we could change Nugget’s behavior by modifying our own. We’ve been having a blast practicing our new skills together!

Thanks for all the wonderful videos on YouTube. I am just starting out as a trainer in Denver and I find so much inspiration from your content. Everything that I have seen and heard from you is so on point and practical. Thanks for extending the influence and effectiveness of force-free training.

I want to say thank you again! Today, we went to the park we had stopped going to because Simba would ceaselessly bark at any dog less person she saw. I was very nervous, but she’s a young dog and wants to run, so I muzzled and unleashed her to her friends. Some 15 minutes later, I de-muzzled her! She barked at only 2 people out of a hundred, and it was far from the compulsive barking and chasing she used to do – both times she just stopped at a distance, said ‘woof-woof’, turned around and went about her business. The other dog people who know Simba were amazed, and I was so relieved! I am continuing the routine I started, and despite some setbacks, I’ve started seeing real changes in her behavior. I am ever so thankful for your help!

Thanks so much for your encouragement!! I have learned both management and how to initiate counter conditioning for my dog and my neighborhood learned to hold a dog guardian responsible for allowing her dogs to attack people off leash through the Pennsylvania dangerous dog statutes. The other pit bull owners and I have been able, after multiple attacks, to protect our community against an irresponsible dog guardian. Your videos with reactive dogs touch my heart. They give me insight into my own dog and the progress made I’m not fearing the new, be it things, people, or other dogs. Watching a dog go over threshold then be removed from the stimulus helps reinforce my improved timing with my dog.

I must say, we see a change in our boy Bugsy already! Drayton came highly recommended by a neighbor and I am so glad we took her advice. We had 2 very negative experiences with trainers when Bugsy first came home, and we were all but convinced that we were alone in our journey to train him. Drayton not only was patient and gentle with Bugsy, but also patient with us! He answered ALL our questions, and reassured us that everything would be OK. For very worried, stressed owners – this is of utmost importance. Best of all – Bugsy gave him hugs and kisses by the end of our session, which was not something we have experienced before! We can’t wait to return for more sessions and to implement the detailed, wonderful plan that MDT has given us. I cannot recommend them highly enough!! 5 Paws up!
