Old North Dog Training, LLC

"After adopting a pitbull puppy, I knew training was in our future. I contacted Drew based a referral from a friend. We have been working with Drew for several months and our pup, Rowdy, just returned from 3 weeks of more intensive training with Drew. I could not be more pleased with the results! Drew has been amazing to work with. He is thorough, quick to respond and no question is too small or incidental for his response. So glad he will always be here for Rowdy and his humans."

"Drew has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He listens to my concerns and tailors our trainings to best change behavior in my rather stubborn dog. From the very first training I was able to begin to curb destructive behaviors in my dog using the methods Drew provided me. Drew and his expertise is worth every penny if you're looking for help training your new family member. (Note: training tips do not work on unruly human family members, mostly)"

"Drew came recommended to me from a friend, and I would highly recommend him to anyone. You can tell he has a genuine love for dogs. He takes his time with the humans to explain everything he has done and worked on. He provides updates while he has the dog and is very reassuring. The only concern I had was that my dog wouldn’t want to come back to us!!! Give Drew a call for that knucklehead puppy anytime!!!"

"I highly recommend Old North Dog Training for canine obedience training. I have a 2 year old Great Dane named Tank that enrolled in Drew's " knucklehead" 3 week course after a lot of frustration and chaos with his behavior. The final straw was Tank darting through the front door one evening as my 83 year old father was attempting to walk the other dog and falling and breaking his femur. We felt like Tank deserved a shot at correcting his behavior before rehoming him. At the same time, I doubted this could work because of his size and lack of listening to me in the past. Drew took him home to his training facility and 3 weeks later Tank came home a different dog. He has been calm and truly a joy to be around. Drew showed us how to use markers and commands to make Tank understand. Tank is my love and now I can be at home with my parents and feel safe. Drew did a wonderful job. He plans to follow up at our house and make sure that the training is ongoing and effective. Laura Petty"

"The young man who runs this business is a unique talent in a field mired down with wannabe “dog whisperers”. Do not let his age fool you. He is extremely passionate about canines and it shines through in his training techniques. The tactics he employs coupled with the dedication to his craft and his easy-going approach are a great combination for anyone who may be somewhat trepidatious about training their dog(s). I would really like to emphasize that Drew does not employ a “one size fits all” training style that we have been subjected to in the past. He worked extensively with us to really understand the relationship dynamic with us and our dogs and tailored his training method based on this information. We really appreciated his patience and demeanor with us throughout our training sessions. For anyone who has yet to have the absolute pleasure of working with Drew, please do not hesitate for one second to utilize his services."
