I used one on one training for multiple sessions with Dan. I had large dog that lacked confidence. In unfamiliar situations you didn't know if he was going to flight or fight. He helped me work with my dog on basic commands but more importantly help him become a more confident dog and looks to me on how to react. He now reacts confidently and has become more comfortable and relaxed in stressful situations.

Dan really knows his stuff!

We could not be happier with the results of our training with Coastal K9. The combination of Dan’s training of our dog and the techniques he has given us to continue training on our own have turned our dog from a rambunctious puppy into the perfect dog.

Dans patience and understanding is not something I can put in to words. He has a genuine CARE for these dogs. It's kind of amazing how he listens to every concern and addresses it through the trainings... he not only spends the time to show a "vision of good" but his follow up shows that he wants you and your dog to be successful. I recommend Dan and Coastal K9 to anyone who has a dog (even older dogs) because he is honestly one of the best dog whisperers I've seen!

You can definitely tell from the moment you meet Dan that he is extremely knowledgeable in the field of dog training. From the onset, his willingness to take the time to educate us (owners) on his principles as well as ongoing advice truly made us feel comfortable and excited to have our dog obedient, trained, and socialized. Dan used many real world scenarios when he trained my pup that I was able to use day one. I HIGHLY recommend giving Dan a call to train your canine whether they are a pup or an old timer. You won't regret it!
