My almost 5 year old Belgian Malinois grew to have a severe case of separation anxiety whenever I'd leave the house w out him(which became almost never at this point) . Scott could see how Jaxon acted at the thought of not having me in his sight... Instead of telling me all the things I did wrong to my dog for him to behaving this way, he adapted to a different approach of his training. I think as dog lovers we are human and instinctively we go into protection mode if we get questioned about our dogs behavior . Scott, not once made me feel like I had to defend my actions for Jaxons behavior . Scott could see I spoiled my fur baby but he didn't lecture me or try to make me feel like an incompetent dog owner . He allowed me and Jaxon to train together while he slowly built a playful, trusting, banter w Jaxon . This allowed him to give my Jaxon time to relax at his own pace and not throwing him immediately into training which would have been very stressful conditions . I am grateful and impressed in just one session I already can see a transformation in Jaxon . It's like he's saying to me.... "Thank You Mom for not leaving me alone on my first day of school and you did good , I re

Edit: 14 days after my initial call and a review and now I have your attention? Funny you used the exact same excuse as The Southern dog. Called this company for help with one of my dogs, was given a price for a session. Was then told I would receive a call later in the week once "they had figured their schedule out". Should have known I was being blown off, but I waited and Of course the call never came. I don't understand why people (companies) cant just say we cant help with your dog. I guess I may have dodged a bullet on this one, cant really expect a company with this level of "professionalism" in the basics to do a good job with my dog.

I have been struggling to train my eight month old German Shepherd mix. I am disabled and fear that my very strong puppy will knock me over. I desperately needed help to help me control him. I called Scott and he spent over 50 minutes talking to me and just a few pointers that he gave me over the phone it was amazing. He really cares about animals and he is very knowledgeable. Don't waste your time calling other trainers in this Yuma. I've tried and no one can beat his caring and compassion about training animals. Thank you Scott!

Scott agreed to work with our 1 year old Lab's impulse control. Duke would go crazy the minute he saw other dogs, and I couldn't control him. We are in Yuma for a short time and Scott has been so accommodating fitting training sessions in given the short time-frame. There is already a noticeable difference in Duke's behavior. Scott is very knowledgeable and his love for dogs and his profession is very obvious. Thank you Scott, this is definitely a game changer for us. I would highly recommend Scott at Foothills Dog Ranch. 🐾❤️ Danielle and Duke British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦

We called Scott while staying in Yuma, we have a 18 month old chocolate lab. Scott agreed to meet with us. We have only had one four hour session and we are so pleased with the progress so far. He is very caring, patient , and explains everything. High recommend .
