Phil's Dog Training - Plainville, Connecticut

We had an excellent experience working with Phil! He helped us address some new behaviors in our four-year-old Black Mouth Cur, and his expertise and passion for training were evident from the start. Phil took the time to understand our situation, explained his training methods thoroughly, and provided clear rationale for everything he did.

Our dog had been refusing to get into the car or even walk down the driveway for weeks. In just one hour, Phil not only got him to do both but also left us with the tools and confidence to continue the training on our own. His patience, knowledge, and positive approach made the entire process enjoyable and effective.

We are so grateful for all Phil did for our dog and for us—highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and dedicated trainer!

We were at wits end with our puppy’s antics and knew it was time to get help training him so we called Phil for this help! He came into the house and was able to make the most of the hour we had to train us how to train and react to our puppy to get the best from him. What an amazing amount we learned in a very short time. It will take plenty of practice and reinforcement to get the results we are looking for, but we are off to a great start! I highly recommend Phil to work with your dogs. We are so happy with the results!

Phil came out for some training with our Cane Corso puppy and within in the hour he did some amazing corrections and some other basic training. We also have 4 other dogs that he did the same with while he was here. We already have him back on the schedule to come out in two weeks for some more training. Highly recommend!

Phil was nothing short of a miracle worker- and a true dog whisperer! We had recently adopted a high energy Shepard and were struggling with basic commands and integrating her into our household with our existing dog. Within 1 hour of training it's like she was a new dog! Phil showed us how to correct and reward behavior and train for long term results. If you are considering a dog trainer, do not hesitate. Phil is the BEST!

My wife and I rescued a mixed breed puppy during the peak of summer and have tried training our little girl in any way we came across on the internet. After months of trying anything and everything and failing I took to google to search for dog trainers in our area and Phil was one of the top choices. He certainly did not disappoint! Scheduling a time to meet was easy, he came to our home and from the moment he walked in the door we could tell we found the right guy. In almost minutes our dog was attentive to the commands Phil was using. Truthfully it was more of a learning experience for my wife and I and discovering all the things we were doing incorrectly. He was affordable, to the point and if you’re in need dog trainer look no further. We’re already looking into his group classes to work on her socialization. Thank you Phil!

Phil took our two dogs from completely out of control animals to perfectly behaved angels. His knowledge and expertise exceeded our expectations. He is straightforward and to the point in teaching you how to fix the problems you may be facing with your dogs. His pricing was fair and he accurately estimated how many sessions would be necessary for our dogs. We highly recommend Phil’s Dog Training services!

WOW. Five stars is an understatement. We were going to send our dogs to a three week training camp because of how poorly they’re behaved but found Phil instead. He came over the day after we called him and took less than an hour to train BOTH dogs (one is 3yrs and one is 5yrs) as well as us. He was AMAZING. We literally couldn’t believe how quickly he had them under control. He taught us how to communicate with them effectively so they listen and we can already see the results….insane. We presented him with our toughest challenges and he had them behaving very well in each scenario. Don’t look anywhere else; book him!!!!

Luna is making great progress thanks to Phil after coming a second time. We all learned so much from him and we are enjoying family time with a better behaved dog. We are eating dinner now and Luna is laying in her bed. Thanks again Phil and I recommend Phil for dog training of any kind.
