We have been trying to contact this provider but he does not return calls or emails. We had a June date for training and he had to cancel b/c of a legal matter. We were gracious and re-scheduled to July, but we then had a death in the family. We asked for our money back, but they refused. We finally found a family member who could bring our dog to be trained and we've been calling and emailing since then, but have received no response. We are ready to file in small claims court. This is our only option for contacting the provider. He hasn't answered any recent emails or phone calls. I refuse to leave another message b/c his phone message is 3 mins long!

I am writing this review on Mr. O'S dog training center at first I was wary of the claims he made, but my wife need a service dog and we took our Jack Russell Terrier in. Now as some people know Jack Russell's are hyper and ours was no exception. My wife was worried about dropping off her baby at the place and not knowing the man very well. But I'm here to tell you that he is a miracle worker when it comes to train your dog when our Jack Russell is working is protective, alert and does everything exceptionally well in people see him working there are amazed at how is trained. Mr. O exceeded any explanations that I may had.he also provides a video on the training is done so you can keep it up with your dog. I highly recommend this man to train your dog because the job done without fear or intimidation to your dog. I have read other reviews the people posted not understand what's wrong you could even say this man is a dog whisperer. Thank you Mr. O for. What you've done .

Mr. O took our extremely unsocialized and out of control German Shepherd and completely obedience trained him in one day. He did not use fear or intimidation and in fact, our dog responded very positively to him and his dogs. We took the dog to Mr. O in the morning and when we returned to pick him up that evening we were delighted to see the results. Our dog displayed perfect manners and had become an obedience pro. Mr. O spent several hours training us, the owners, after he had trained the dog. He was patient and thorough and made sure we understood how to continue and reinforce the training. I would highly recommend Mr. O to anyone who wants to get dog training over with in a timely manner and with a real professional. We felt the experience was well worth the money. The dog continues to do well.

I have a (just over) 1.5 year old mix pup. I adopted her when she was 5
weeks old - much too young to be separated from her family, but the mama
dog's owner had dropped the litter off at 4 weeks. She was so wonderful
as a young pup but she began developing a pretty huge attitude and
jumping problem as she got older. By the time she hit her 1.5 year, she
was officially not listening anymore to anything except for sit and wait
- sometimes. She jumped on EVERYONE, scratched people, biting at their
noses, hands and feet. She would bark at everyone and everything. She
tormented my cat. When I spoke on the phone or had video chats, she
would bite my hands, arms and feet hard enough to leave marks and pull
blood and would not leave me along until I hung up the phone or turned
off the computer. She had previously been extremely friendly with other
dogs but also suddenly became aggressive with them. I had taken her to
PetSmart where she passed the class with flying colors (or so the
trainers claimed) but she was just getting worse. I had no idea what to
do so I asked around about great trainers and numerous people suggested
Mr. O. I spoke with my mother about possibly calling him and she had
reminded me that she met him and his dog posse outside of HIllcrest
Shopping Center in Lower Burrel. She was so impressed with the way he
handled the dogs and how well they listened to him WHILE clearly adoring
him.
I sent him an email and received a call back within 3
days. After one phone call, I booked him and he was able to fit us into a
recently cancelled spot 4 days later.
I was told to drop my pup
off in the morning which was hard - as I've only ever left my pup with
strangers while boarding her for one short vacation. We spend literally
every day together (she goes with me everywhere) - so I admit to feeling
uneasy while driving to Mr. O's. But as soon as he showed up and took
pup off my hands, I instantly felt relaxed and comfortable with the
situation. (He has such a calming personality. No wonder dogs love him!)
He had his three dogs (his posse and their gold chains) with him to
help ease my pup's anxiety. I drove away with a completely different
feeling than I had while driving there. I was happy and anxious!
Mr.
O called me throughout the day to give me updates on my pup's progress
and to ask me questions about her. After 10 hours with her, we headed in
for our portion of the training which lasted just over 2 hours.
(Learning how to handle her properly.) He explained everything in great
detail. He explained our dog would be categorized as an "un-trainable
basket case" because of her mixture of extreme anxiety + aggression. (I
totally believe and agree with that.) But I could see immediately that
my pup was almost totally changed. She listened to him SO well and was
so clearly smitten with him. We're still working on some mild issues
with strangers as we're still in the "reprogramming" phase, but overall,
she is so much happier and less stressed out - as are we!
Thanks
to Mr. O, we're now one step closer to my pup becoming a Certified
Therapy Dog to work with sick children - which is her dream job. ;)
We'll be going back to Mr. O for that certification when the time comes!
There's
only one thing I would have changed if I could have about the
experience. I had to buy a leather leash (required), basic chain collar
(required) and DVD (not required) of the training at the end of the day.
I would have much preferred to have just paid for everything up front
when I initially paid for the session at booking. So - if you're like me
and never carry checks/cash on you, as Mr. O doesn't accept cards yet,
perhaps ask if you can lump all of that in with your initial payment so
that you can avoid the ATM/searching for your checkbook a second time.
:)
Overall, I would (and already have!) highly highly highly
recommend Mr. O to ANYONE and EVERYONE having any sort of issue with
their pup! I personally hope he never retires because I plan to adopt
more dogs eventually and absolutely want each of them go through his
training! Also - he offers a LIFETIME GUARANTEE! I don't know of a
single dog trainer who offers anything remotely close to that!

After the initial call Mr. O sent me some additional info, a questionnaire and a contract. The day of I arrived at his place and had Mr. O come to the car to meet my dog to view his reaction. After a brief walk around I left my dog with him for the day. At the end of the day of training he works with the dog at a local shopping center to work with the various problems. I received calls when he expected to be done then when I was to go pick him up. Once I arrived at the end of the day he worked with me in his "office" on the commands -walk with a loose leash, sit (and stay until called), heel and a few others. After a comfort level with that we then went back to the shopping center to continue those commands and other corrections in a public place. We were able to get strangers to help us out in the training as well. Once he was confident I was comfortable with it we went over again my homework for the next few weeks to make sure we had the commands and instructions down.
