Jeff is the best. He saved us! Lainey is really sweet, we just didn't know what to do with all that energy.
Jeff taught us how to keep her from eating our house for fun! I have referred friends to him and will definitely use Force-Free Dog Training again in the future.

My dog Angie was a rescue dog, and I knew they present challenges, but I had no idea some of the issues I would have. Angie got challenged by another dog on one of our walks. Afterward, she exhibited such aggression toward other dogs; I couldn't walk her around the block. She also was an escape artist, and had such separation anxiety; the vet put her on prozac. After Jeff started working with me, no one would know that she had issues around other dogs. He worked with me to have a secure perimeter and stopping the attempt to escape through the front door when guests came. She is a much happier animal, and is easier to be a part of our family through Jeff's coaching.

We had a trainer tell us to put an eye bolt in the wall and clip our dog's leash to it to keep him out of mischief and away from the dinner table. In the first lesson with Jeff Holmes, Ruxby our Yellow Lab (totally food crazy) learned to go to his bed and stay there while food was dropped from the table. Amazing! Jeff was great. Very knowledgeable. Very funny too.

Nobody beats Jeff Holmes for aggressive dogs. He's soft-spoken and gentle-and very effective. We got kicked out of a group class, but after working with Jeff, we were able to go through another group class & nobody ever believed that Duke used to be aggressive with other dogs.

Butcher bit our vet, so she recommended we give Force-Free Dog Training a call. She said Jeff could help us. Butcher growled at Jeff too at first, but he didn't seem to mind. After the Aggression Series of lessons, Butcher was LIKE A NEW DOG!! It was amazing the difference! Now he likes to meet new people, and he doesn't follow guests around in the house. Jeff helped my mom with her dog after doing such a great job with my boy.

I am currently working with Force-Free Dog Training and I have to say Jeff is wonderful! I never thought my dog could learn so much so fast! He used to drag me down the street, but now I can walk him with the stroller. I have already referred one of my friends to him.

Best dog trainer in the southland, hands down. And I've hired plenty over the years.

One trainer wanted $3000.00 for a 6-week stay at his kennel. Another told my wife over the phone that we were going to get sued. Had her in tears. After 4 session with Jeff my wife was walking the dog to go pick up the kids from school. It's been 2 years and not another bite or growl since. We thought we were going to have to get rid of the dog. All I can say is, there was a lot of tears and then there was Jeff. No problems since.

Best in the Biz!! Amazing! The guy is like a God or something. He came in, asked some questions, and solved a bunch of problems we have put up with for way too long. Last trainer said it was a problem with the breed and there's not much you can do about it. That guy could learn a thing or 2 from Jeff.

Gentle. Sweet. Kind. Very loving of animals. That's Jeff. Oh and he's also brilliant as a trainer. Hilarious, too! Had a blast working with him!! Never thought I could laugh so much while learning. Taz liked him too!
