The Holistic Dog Coach

Isaac Mass from The Holistic Dog Coach is the best dog trainer I know. He really gets canine behavior and has a great way of explaining it to people looking to train their dogs and correct their dogs behavior. I highly recommend him for dog training and dog care. He's even great with puppies (and people) and can help people and families considering to get a dog understand what to expect in the first year and anticipate different things that come up as a dog gets older. 5 Stars across the board.

Isaac is absolutely amazing! He not only helped my pup with her anxiety issues, but he gave me moral support as well. He was always happy to answer questions and help in any way he could. His calm, confident nature puts both dogs and humans at ease, making him an outstanding trainer More...

I’m very happy to be working with Isaac who has shown great enthusiasm, patience, and understanding. I rescued a dog who had been surrendered, adopted, then returned and after he bit me, I wasn’t sure how to proceed. Isaac told me a couple helpful things like letting the crate be his safe space, preventing him from hiding, but overall remembering trust before obedience. At one point he recommended letting my cats out and I was surprised. I planned to keep them separate for a while longer. Lo and behold, my dog seeing me pet my cats enticed him to come out and start coming up to me to be pet. Isaac has guided me along goals to have for my dog such as what tricks to teach, slowly building him up to get used to the leash and being carried by me. So far I’ve had an initial phone call, an introductory session, and two more sessions. Each interaction has been very knowledgeable and engaging. I also appreciate that Isaac gets to know his clients as a person. I felt comfortable opening up to him about life things and he listened. He didn’t have to but it helped me feel more comfortable and focused throughout our sessions. I had found Isaac through Bark and I’m so glad I went through with booking him. I also enjoy being able to ask him questions and update him in between sessions. Thank you so much for everything so far, Isaac More...

I am so happy I met Issac. He has excellent knowledge of doggie psychology and human interaction. My 3-year-old golden retriever had been to all of her puppy training classes and knows her commands, but she was taking control of me on walks and in the yard. Issac reminded that simple behavior corrections on my part, like patience actually works like a charm. Thanks again!😀 More...

Isaac is a great coach. Understands the mentality of the dogs and is able to communicate with them. My rescue wasn't listening, growling at people who came in. But with the assistance of Isaac my dog is more calmer and definitely not as aggressive. And the walking with him has been great. No more pulling. No more struggling. definitely recommend him. Thanks Isaac. More...

We rescued a sweet Pitbull puppy, very lovable but terrified of the outside world. We couldn’t get her to leave our property for even a walk. Isaac’s approach with us encompassed behavioral changes in both our puppy and the way we approach her. We are happy to say that within a one month period, we now have a puppy that although isn’t a perfect walker yet, has gotten to the point where she loves going for walks. We are learning through Isaac that a tremendous amount of patience, consistency, work and love is required to yield positive results. We are grateful for all of his help. And lastly, he’s a really nice guy, too! More...

Isaac clearly knows his subject; I asked him several questions which he responded to solidly. I’m now looking forward to the next training session.

Isaac was a great trainer for our corgi puppy! Very understanding and flexible scheduling training sessions. He was willing to gear each session to whatever we wanted to focus on whether it was reactivity, leash training, socialization, indoors and outdoors! Patient and willing to answer any questions and concerns we had. All in all, a great person in our experience to guide us as first time puppy owners. More...

We are really happy with Isaac and his techniques. Our 3 year old Chihuahua rescue, Birdie, really didn’t know how to interact around other dogs. And while she is extremely lovable, living most of her life on the streets in Texas, she didn’t know how to follow our commands. After a few sessions with Isaac, Birdie has learned so much, as we have. Her walks are more calm, she’s following commands more readily and still as cuddly as ever. She hasn’t graduated yet, she’s got more work to do, but with Isaac’s help I know she’s going to do great! Thanks! More...

So helpful with our new Great Pyrenees puppy. We started using his services soon after getting the puppy to immediately work on training. Highly advise to do that as it makes training easier. The dog quickly learned to come and sit. Worked on no jumping and behaving appropriately with our older dog. Leash training going more smoothly. Highly recommend. More...

I have read the reviews and there are some that complain that all the “trainer did was walk around their block and discuss his life”. I have worked with trainers in the past and what I realized they were doing was assessing my interaction with my dog (unknowingly) to see what our issues were and training me how to properly walk with my dog. Each interaction with your trainer is a lesson. It’s a process that takes patience. More...

Yes you're exactly correct! The point of training a dog is not at all to just have the dog obey, it's also to improve and enhance the dynamics between the dog and owner. Many times the owner is unaware of how they are presenting themselves to their dogs and others. Also, sometimes talking for a little bit can help ease the situation and allow the anxiety of the owner to dissipate and thereby allowing the dog to be less protective and reactive. I appreciate your insight, have a beautiful day!

I have a 1.5 yr old Boston Terrorist named Betsy. She had 0 respect, jumped all over any human that came near her, walks were a pain. At a solid 25 lbs her silly antics were putting our friends parents and children in danger. It took literally 1 session with Isaac for us to see a significant shift. As we’ve continued she’s (and we) have only gotten better and better! Our pup is happier and so are we! Beyond training skill, Isaac has also been superbly gracious and flexible about our multiple scheduling conflicts. I’m so grateful that he’s been so willing to work with us. 5 stars isn’t enough.

Isaac is doing an amazing job thus far with our Boxer puppy Braddock. In the first few weeks Braddock has learned much and is becoming more obedient each day all due to Isaac’s instruction. He is training my family how to train our dog. Our dog immediately listened to and respected Isaac. How Braddock responds to Issac is truly remarkable but more importantly what he has taught our family on how to train Braddock makes the biggest difference. Looking forward to our continued progress.
