PRO-TRAIN INNOVATIVE DOG TRAINING Reviews

I thought my pup was a lost cause, I love my German Shepherd but we kept getting complaints from our neighbors about her constant barking, the incident that really pushed us to try protrain was when she became really aggressive over her bone and she ended up attacking our teacup pomeranian. During my consultation, Mike explained that she was resource guarding and they would be able to address the issue. During my 2nd visit, they recommended bringing my pomeranian so we could be in a controlled environment where we could work on her resource guarding. It worked wonders! The pomeranian was eating some bones and treats while my German Shepherd walked past without acknowledging the treats, she also sat and waited patiently till she got a treat. Another issue addressed during my consultation was the fact she jumped on everyone to greet them, by the end of the 3 week training period, she didn't jump on me. I took her home and when she saw other family members, she didn't jump on them. She patiently waited until they came to her. There are so many corrections and commands that she learned. Words can't even begin to describe how thankful I am to Mike, Shelly and the other trainers.

Mark Castillero has trained my dogs for the last 30 years. I now drive down to Vista from Northern California to have them trained because I have never found anyone who can train dogs like he does. After three weeks you won t believe your eyes. Is that my dog? Lying there next to the outdoor cafe table and being quiet and obedient? Wow!!!

Great team of trainers and wonderful human beings. All have superb knowledge and patience and obviously a love of their job and dogs! Communication, consistency and structure are apex at Pro-Train.
Mike has a sensible and pleasant style of guidance, advice and knowledge which will be taken to heart by all of us. He clarified and always answered all of our questions, and also presented meaningful analogies. What more could anyone ask for in an owner, leader and trainer ?! Shell has an awesome demeanor for instructing and training. She is talented, insightful, kind, considerate and firm. She has instilled in my "Boot Camp Recruits" a firm basis for structure that we will aspire to build upon. Josh and Rhett are valuable additions to the strong team.
Thank You for all your hard work!
Jeanne Brewer.....Boomer, Nikki and Aspen Brewer too!!!

Extremely professional staff. So impressed with the results. Having a Pro-Train dog feels like confidence in what to expect in any situation my dog will be in. Well worth the investment to have the dream dog for our family now. Will have all dogs receive the same training in the future.

I have been working at Pro-Train Innovative Dog Training for a couple months now. I am training to be a dog trainer in various arenas such as basic and advanced obedience, service dogs, and police/protection dogs. I am happy to report that after various career avenues I have finally found my calling. We have a great team here that shares my passion for training dogs which is obvious in the time and effort we put forth in training woman's and man's best friends!!!

Amazing trainers and great fast pace environment that will keep a new beginner on their toes. Like me, I wasn't a dog person till I went through some of the dog training with my dog. Now I'm a dog person thanks to Pro-train.

Mike and Shell are amazing. Thank you so much for helping turn our rambunctious lab into a polite big boy. All while taking such good care of him while we were nervous at home. Thank you again!

The folks here are extremely focused on the animal as well as the owner. You are given all the tools you need to be successful but it is up to you to maintain the discipline and consistency. You will be well armed to have an extremely well trained pup. Ours went from terrorist to model citizen after three weeks. After 4 visits over 3 months, she is on her way to being a fully qualified service animal with the greatest behavior.

We were referred to protrain from a friend and they didn t disappoint! We brought our mastiff/ mix puppy in, and 3 weeks later, picked up a well behaved puppy that actually obeys my commands, doesn t jump anymore and is great around the kids in our family.
I highly recommend them !
