 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul is an excellent and experienced trainer, kind person, and knows an incredible amount of about dogs. He taught us so much, both during our sessions and after with follow up content. He was great with our fearful and reactive dog, taking the time to build her confidence, and teaching me what to do, how and when to do it. She also stayed with him for a week or so while we were away and did very well. We plan to continue working with Paul and trust him completely!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul is the consumate dog lover. He watches our 12yo boxer with neuropathy, her back legs are completely paralyzed. With him, she is safe, well cared and happy. She loves to be around his special brand of dog magic. It makes travel for us possible because we know he provides loving and professional care.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So, I would like to say I didn't actually get my dog trained with Paul Miller.
However, because of the way he helped me, I have no intentions of going anywhere else if I ever am in need of dog training. I lost my dog in Stinson Beach, I was worried sick, and felt like I kept hitting dead ends. I live in the East Bay, so I  wasn't sure what to do and I had to go back home to go to work.  I was told to connect with Paul Miller because he is a dog trainer with dog tracking experience. He made sure I covered all my bases from fliers in the right places in town, connecting me to the local "nextdoor app" neighborhood, to going out on his own with leads and attempting to find my dog for me. Paul Miller has such a kind soul for both man and man's best friend. I am so grateful for his assistance.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our Labrador Retriever loves to go and train with Paul.  She often boards there if we are away.  He is very kind and gentle with our dog and she responds so well to him.  Highly recommend Paul for training your dog.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into when we rescued Roxy. Separation anxiety, fear of social situations with other dogs and people, no drive to play, to name a few challenges. We reached out to Paul, and he really took the time to thoroughly assess Roxy in order to meet her where she was, and move at a safe pace for her so that she trusted him, and explored new situations when she was ready. Paul is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about promoting healthy development and safety for dogs. Not only has Paul helped us learn about training and handling our dog, but Roxy’s excitement when she sees Paul on training days could speak for itself. We have a much more confident and playful dog these days, and words cannot express our gratitude for Paul’s support!
