Canine Behavior Specialists

My husband and I were somewhat doubtful about our training experience. However, as we practiced Wayne's techniques at home between the sessions and long after our sessions, we couldn't be more pleased with the results. We have a couple of dogs that were fighting, nipping neighbors, and chewing furniture. We were ready to give up. Now, they are well behaved, off their meds, and a pleasure to be around. They even listen to our commands! The biggest plus - Wayne trained us!

Working with Canine Behavior Specialists was the best decision our family made. Wayne is a great trainer and was able to provide us with the tools and exercises to train our puppy.

Hiring Wayne was one of the best decisions I've made! I recently adopted a very sweet dog with some aggression and behavioral issues. after two months of training she has become a completely different dog. She walks by my side without becoming distracted, and I now enjoy walking her. Wayne has responded to all of my questions throughout training within hours, and is clearly very knowledgeable about all aspects of dog training. Thank you Wayne!

Wayne's program is great! A testiment to this is while we were taking our dog for a walk yesterday, two people actually stopped to tell us how well trained our dog was! Fiona had some aggression issues as well as manners issues that we have been working with Wayne on, so these compliments were sooooo nice to hear! After going through the training with Wayne we have really seen an improvement! And we did the sessions virtually. I was skeptical as to how this would work but honestly there is no reason he has to physically be there to provide this service.

We've completed two out of the four lessons, and we already see a dramatic difference in our 70 pound lab mix. We came to Wayne (the proprietor) by happenstance while reaching out to trainers regarding our dog's human and dog aggression issues. Wayne has a different approach. He made it very clear that he is a behaviorist. This is what he does. He has worked with many aggressive dogs, and I was instantly impressed by his knowledge and qualifications. Wayne is all about fixing your dog.

He may not come off as the touchy-feely type, but I very well think he may have saved our dog. For that, I can't thank him enough, and I trust he can help others with their dog's issues too. Follow up: We finished the training with Wayne in February 2019. We stuck to the regimen, and our dog is doing awesome. A dog that once required us to avoid having contact with anyone or anything outside the family unit is now able to join us on our outings to restaurants, stores, and walks in high traffic areas.

We can now have guests in our home without fear of her aggression. I can't say enough how much we appreciate the lessons Wayne taught us and the support he offered. If you're on the fence about who to go with, I highly recommend this business.

Wayne with Canine Behavior Specialists has proven to be an excellent trainer for my Australian Cattle Dog, Darwin as well as a great teacher for me and my fiancee. We initially contacted Canine Behavior Specialists for behavior modification, but found that through Wayne's obedience methods many of the issues we experienced were resolved. This is our second time using a dog trainer - our older Blue Heeler went through a board and train program with another company - so we have previous experience to compare with this. The in-home service Wayne provides is, in my opinion, a much better way to go.

Wayne was tremendous to work with. We have a very unique dog, to say the least, and he has tremendous issues with separation anxiety. Wayne helped us with different ways to reclaim order in our house. Wayne also adjusted his training to fit our dog specifically, offering a variety of solutions until we found which one fit our boy the best. I highly recommend Wayne to anyone having issues. Well worth the investment!

Wayne was such a pleasure to work with! Very personable and knowledgeable. If you're in need of an expert who can create a training program to fit your dog's specific needs, no matter what those needs are, then Wayne is your man. Thank you Wayne!

Wayne is simply the best. I have been working with Wayne since I adopted a great dog with high energy and a rather stubborn personality and Wayne has been a God send. He is a dog expert in every way. He is patient and knowledgeable with our lessons and I tell everyone that I know about Wayne and how much I have enjoyed working with him. The best part is that Wayne makes himself available to you pretty much any day all day to answer questions and provide help. All of the testimonials that I read before contacting Wayne proved to be true and he has gone above and beyond to help my dog and I.

Wayne is an awesome trainer. We have only had 2 lessons so far and our 2 year old Yorkie rescue has already improved so much! We hired Wayne to help us with her aggression toward our other older Yorkie. I'm so glad we found him and invested in the training to bring peace, structure and a more safe environment to our home.
