We had a great experience with Tim McElyea as our dog trainer. His expertise and guidance have been invaluable in helping us with our puppy. Tim's ability to understand our specific needs and tailor his training methods accordingly has been instrumental in helping us. He made the training process not only effective but also enjoyable for all involved.
Tim was very knowledgeable and had my dog walking good on a leash very quickly.
We had the best experience with our dog trainer. Tim McElyea more than exceeded our expectations with Finn. Many thanks for helping our family teach this high energy goldendoodle good puppy manners and most of all how to keep him safe!
Tim McElyea was fantastic! My Maggy (10 months) was a bit older than his typical client but he was willing to work with us anyway. Maggy has a lot of energy and our first visit with Tim, she did not cooperate much (at all). He gave me tips and suggestions to work on until the next week and when he returned he was relieved at her progress. Our 8-week session took about 3.5 months due to the holidays (Christmas and New Years), my surgery and some time out of town. He was willing to work with my schedule every time! I’m so thankful that Tim helped me help Maggy. She is still spastic and energetic but she now knows how to behave when told to do so. He has also given me the tools I need to continue our training without him which is invaluable. I no longer dread taking her for a walk.
Tim has been an absolute blessing!!! Hercules weighs 100+ pounds and would pull me to the point that I had no control and he only knew the basic sit, lay down and bedtime comamands. After Tim's first meeting with Hercules, he was completely honest about Hercules' questionable behavior and his ability to become an emotional support dog but soon learned that he was a big teddy bear and very smart. After 8 sessions, with Tim's guidance and a very straight forward training plan, Hercules has become well behaved, listens to more commands and actually walks on a leash instead of pulling me everywhere. I can open the door without him plowing into my legs to go out. I'm beyond pleased with the results. I love the fact that Hercules stayed home and didn't learn all his new skills without me. All the work was well worth it. I'd recommend Tim to anyone looking for a honest, compassionate, and knowledgeable trainer. Thank you Tim for everything.
Tim was AWESOME with our 4 month old French Bulldog!! She learned all of her puppy manners and commands in such a short period of time! He was a great resource, full of knowledge and helped us learn the best way to train her to be a confident, well behaved pup! Would 1000% recommend Tim!
Tim is a great guy. He taught me a lot and really showed me to give my dog commands.
Tim McElyea is indeed the “Puppy Whisperer!” He has helped me tremendously with my Yorkipoo, Banks. He is an exceptionally knowledgeable and patient trainer! Banks has come a very long way since he started training with Tim. And I’m incredibly pleased with the outcome. This was a great experience! I HIGHLY recommend him as a trainer. He is worth every dime and you will not be disappointed!
I had a great experience with Tim. He is knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating. He helped us learn fundamental commands that will maintain the safety of my dog and others. Highly recommend.
Worked with Tim, it was a great experience. He was very knowledgeable and explained in detail how to be successful. Each week I saw progress with my dog. For the amount they charge versus other high dollar trainers, this by far was well worth the money.
Tim McElyea to the rescue!! I thought I was going to lose my mind after we adopted a stray. Tim contacted me as soon as I reached out. He was always very positive and encouraging. I love how he trains ME to train my dog, I think it helps the bonding experience as well. I know that with continued practice, my puppy will be so well behaved, one day. I highly recommend this company, as well as Tim. He has helped me restore some sanity and calm in the house again!
Tim Mcelyea was great at working with not only our dog but with us as well. He taught us a lot and we would recommend!
We worked with Tim McElyea and he is fantastic. We had recently adopted a 6 month old puppy from the shelter and we were having a hard time adjusting. He didn’t have any previous training and did not know any basic commands. Within just a few weeks we have seen a huge improvement. Tim’s method is to teach the owner how to train the dog and it really works great. We highly recommend him for training your pup!
Tim McElyea did a great job with our pup and was very kind and easy to work with. Good communication and do recommend!
Tim McElyea did an amazing job with our puppy!
Tim was amazing to work with. Loved the convenience of him coming to our home and working with Max as the only puppy in class. Would recommend him for your puppy’s training.
We recently adopted an 8 year old shelter dog. He is fearful during walks and is reactive towards other dogs which had made it extremely difficult to walk him on a leash in the neighborhood with quite a few dog walkers. We are currently working with Tim McElyea. It's just been 3 weeks and we are making excellent progress with basic obedience and walking on a leash. Tim is very patient, knowledgeable and excellent with teaching us how to train and communicate with Tugg. We highly recommend Tim. The method of training works. It will strengthen your relationship with your dog and give you and your dog the tools and confidence needed to handle any issue going forward.
