Traction Dog Training Club: Boulder, CO

"I decided to enroll Anzu in Traction's 2-week study abroad program, due to some extended travel I had to do abroad, and this is probably the best decision I've made for both myself and Anzu. Tina has done amazing work with Anzu - walking her used to be one of our greatest struggles, and since she has come back, walking her has become a breeze. Tina has been a great support as well post-program, her instructions and advice are thorough and she walks us through various solutions as well. I am still getting used to using the new tools to maintain Anzu's training, but I have definitely regained confidence in both walking and allowing Anzu to play offleash. I would also like to add that Tina and Kayla have both been amazingly flexible and patient with organizing Anzu's post-program boarding. I highly recommend Traction Dog Training Club to anyone seeking help with training and is interested in exploring the potential of balanced training. I look forward to working with them again in the hopefully not so far future for Anzu's CGC certification :) (Sharing some photos of Anzu that Tina sent my way during her program. Thank you so much for these Tina!)"

"Victoria from Traction helped my dog Sunny go from being very reactive and trying to say hi to every person/dog to calm and confident on leash walks! I can’t believe the progress he made in two weeks and am excited to continue working with Victoria and Traction. Seriously the best training experience we’ve ever had, and Victoria is calm and confident, it’s been fun to learn from her! Would’ve never dreamt of taking him to a brewery/restaurant and after two weeks he rocked it! Also enjoyed our outings around Boulder - Traction made training fun!"

"We’re a Boulder family working with Eric to train our husky pup, Bowie. Experience has been stellar! Eric is a world-class professional, with a natural gift for communicating with dogs (and people!). We’ve been so impressed with his connection with Bowie, his deep knowledge and insight, and the progress we’ve seen in just a few lessons. It’s remarkable. We look forward to continuing with trainings as Bowie grows. Thank you Eric and team!"

"Eric is absolutely incredible. We feel so lucky getting the guidance we need as owners. Our highly energetic 5 month old German short haired pointer is so much farther along than I would’ve ever thought possible, thanks to Eric’s confident and clear direction. He makes our sessions fun and easy. I can’t recommend Eric enough!"

"I have had amazing results with my 11 month old German Shepherd/Siberian Husky thanks to Traction! He weighs over 130lbs and before Traction he would jump up and land his two front paws on my legs! Now, he comes to me and sits in front of the couch, no more jumping! My other guy, Louie, is an 8 year old American Staffordshire Terrier who was getting overwhelmed with our puppy and again, thanks you he is actually initiating play and a much happier boy! I would recommend Traction to anyone needing any of their various services!"
