I found K9 Optima on social media and immediately became a part of his online training community. His training sessions are streamed live so you can watch his sessions from start to finish. His love of dogs is apparent and he has taught me how to handle my reactive little dog in a positive manner. His experience and knowledge sets him apart from other trainers. His gentle patience with the dogs is inspiring. Highly recommend

I've had the pleasure of being part of Josh's online training community after following his work on social media for over a year. His help has been a total game-changer for my reactive Pit mix. We've overcome most of her fears & issues to the point I no longer worry that I'll have to behaviorally euthanize (she was really bad at one point). Our relationship is stronger and we've been able to undo the damage that was caused by previous compulsion trainers. I couldn't be happier with Josh's methods & level of caring & professionalism.

We are having a really positive experience bringing our high energy, super smart herding dog to Josh. I feel like we're in a new phase where she's listening better, I'm communicating better and the whole family is more at peace. We've had many dogs, but never one like this and Josh really helps us understand each other in a kind, thoughtful, smart way. Total recommend.
