"Steven worked and is still working wonders with my dog, Hobbs. Hobbs is a rescue. Hobbs loves people, but has many traits of a dog that was born and spent some time on the streets. He is a bit reactive, guards resources, and has some stranger danger. But, also, like most rescues, Hobbs has a heart of gold and Steven really brought that out in him. Steven communicates well with me and with Hobbs. I receive continuous updates on his progress through calls, texts, and even a spreadsheet with what he's learned. I think the biggest miracle is that when I say "crate", Hobbs actually goes in his crate! The most important thing to me is not that Steven has taught Hobbs how to be a good dog, but that Hobbs loves Steven! I would recommend Steven to any dog lover who wants to make their dog's world safer and happier."

"Steven has been such a pleasure to work with! I had recently adopted a new dog, Maverick, and was having some concerns with reactivity. He gave us some advice and tools to work on, little did I know that a month later he would be a completely different dog! His behavior has improved so much and we’re both at peace! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and giving us guidance, I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!"
