Our Philosophy - There are a multitude of training styles, methods, and philosophies out there, all of which have their pros and cons. Our philosophy is simple. It takes a balanced technique to create a balanced dog. As in any relationship, good communication is essential! Your relationship with your dog is likewise hinged on your ability to understand your dog, and for your dog to understand you.

A few months ago I took my dogs Wrigley & Ducky to meet with The Dog Wizard Milpitas for dog training and I highly recommend their services. The trainer treated my two fur babies with an incredible level of care. They’re fantastic, have a deep passion for dogs, and it shows. It was evident from the start that they’ve had lots of experience with pets and understand dog psychology very well. What sets them apart is their ability to provide tips for necessary exercise and mental stimulation to keep them engaged and happy. It’s also good for dog’s socialization. You can trust them to provide your dog with the same level of care and attention that they provided my dogs with.
For 15 years I have had the pleasure of training dogs in all capacities - for TV/movie sets, service dogs, scent work, therapy dogs and pup lovers such as yourself worldwide. I believe training should be an enjoyable experience for both you and your dog. The more you understand about how your dog thinks and learns, the more effectively you can communicate. Clear communication means successful training and good behavior—with no need for coercion or physical corrections.

I interviewed plenty of trainers in my process to find help with my two dogs. Justin was really cool when we spoke, very informative and invited me out to a puppy play session he was hosting. He kennel trains which i was unsure about initially - but after walking me through his process made me feel more at ease. I didn’t fell rushed to make a decision after the evaluation which was nice because some places are just trying to fill spots. He has outdoor space on the top level above the kennel training, which was nice that dogs spent a great deal in. I went daily for training sessions during the third and fourth week of the board and train program which were super helpful - Justin always accommodated my schedule. He’s a super cool guy, informative, and great with animals. You can tell. Since the board and train program, I always board the dogs here when I travel in which Justin always gives me a refresher course upon pick up and checks in with the dogs training. Surprised and grateful.

I can't say enough positive thing there wouldn't be the space. The enthusiasm and focus that Tiffany had for my specific family my every need was amazing. I thought differently about training in the past but this energy thing that Tiffany does it's too hard to explain and words but not only did she focus on my dog my family member Thor has not only modified his behavior but has changed our families perspective on even the way we treat each other it's amazing definitely five stars

BBefore Buddy Paws my 2 puppy German Shepards were very uncontrollable and hyper and they would always charge and jump on us. They also had food agression and would eat each other's food. I had to feed them separately or they would end up fighting. And walking them was a nightmare.
After just 14 sessions, amazingly both Shepards are now calm and also obey on command. On just the first session alone there was an amazing transformation. Dog trainer Raul is amazing!!

Our puppy is 2 weeks into into Gordon’s 5-week program and we could not be more pleased with Gordon and with our pup’s progress. Gordon knows what he is doing and his organization makes every session productive and more importantly, the trainings to do on your own easy and fun. He’s very personable and cares about his clients, both the pup and the person. The two sessions a week with Gordon are the highlights of mine and my puppy’s week.

I hired Lori to train my dachshund Abby four years ago. In the summer we added another pup to our household. I was having a terrible time house training her and teaching her to stay in her place when we eat. We no longer live near Lori. I wrote her and we spoke on the phone. She was generous and made several suggestions. Before long, there were no longer accidents in the house. She could have charged me, but she didn’t. You do not need need to look any further. She is excellent and does both virtual and in house/yard training.

Jordynn was great with Zoey! Our girl was a rescue with tons of anxiety with practically no etiquete / manners. Jordynn helped her work through a number of concerns from potty training, barking / whining, social interactions and so on. We really loved the open line of communication and daily updates of her progress. 10/10 would recommend to anyone feeling hopeless with their dog and behaviors.

Training series includes indoor, outdoor, on walks in your neighborhood, and eventually at parks in your area so you're prepared for different environments and energy levels.
We value each dog as an individual and approach every training program in a customized manner. We value our customers and their time, as well as their financial investment in us!

Highly recommend Jayce and Atticus for any kind of dog training. They went above and beyond for our german shephard/ husky, Oso. We were at the point where we could not leave him home alone without him trying to escape or leave something damaged. Now, we can leave him home with a peace a mind that he will be at our house without leaving any damage. We also were not able to have him off leash due to the likely chance he would not listen and come back. He now has excellent recall and does amazing off leash. Thank you so much for all your help! We appreciate it!

Helping people with disabilities rely on their dogs for assistance and care. Teaching competitive obedience to high caliber working breeds.
The idea that I didn't have to rely on anyone to tell me who I can and cannot help based on their income or their health. The dream to achieve high levels of obedience without limitations. The ability to be myself and follow my heart. The will to become unstoppable and a master of my craft. Being able to afford a further education.

I am certified and continue to further my education in dog training and behavior each and every day. I use science based techniques that have been proven effective .
