I cannot say enough great things about Brady and his puppy training program. After only two weeks he was able to turn our puppy into an obedient well mannered dog. His training goes beyond things you can put down on paper. Our puppy came back to us acting better than most adult dogs. He walks on a leash beautifully, waits for his owner to pass doorways, sits and goes to the bathroom on command with distractions and knows how to behave in busy environments. Brady has also been there for us any day we had questions or needed advice. This was just a two week puppy training program and we know we will be back for the adult training.

Brady took our dog from uncontrollable to the best part of our day! She now stays in place, heels on and off leash and comes right away. Brady did an excellent job with Sadie and we highly recommend him to anyone thinking about dog training!!

My dogs were a handful and went through several self training methods to no success. After training, the pups are new dogs, obedient and so wonderful to stay in place. No more chewing or accidents.

Brady is outstanding! My 2 yr old Shepard mix was a handful and truly Brady was our last hope! He came highly recommended to me so I trusted him from the beginning. My dog Nugget would lunge at dogs while walkin, would charge the fence in backyard where my neighbors were terrified and every stranger was an enemy in his mind. I could not even have friends over to my house as fear he would attack them . After a month with Brady he is the BEST boy ever !! I can walk him with one hand, no more aggression , loves the neighbors and now loves life and is a happy confident pup ! I feel now we will have many happy years together and I am no longer fearful that I cannot control him ! Brady taught me everything I needed to know and spent hours with me when he returned him so I can learn how to continue with the training . Brady is always available if I have questions and has followed up on him! I cannot say enough good praise for Brady ! Without him I truly believe my dog could not live his best life !! ❤️❤️

Brady and Ridgeside K9 did an absolutely fantastic job with my dog! He is a 6 year old who I thought would never be able to be around other dogs. He participated in his first 5K yesterday and was able to be around other dogs without any issues. He is better behaved at home and listens well. I would recommend Ridgeside K9 to all dog owners!

We can't thank Brady and Ridgeside K9 enough for taking on our 4 yo Rhodesian mix. Juice spent 2 years in shelters! Never had a chance until we rescued him. It took 4 visits for him to warm up so we could bring him home. But, although he showed nothing but love for us, he exhibited anxiety and aggression towards strangers and other dogs. We also have 2 cats that we were unable to allow them to be together. We tried for a year to correct these behaviors but realized we didn't have the time or knowledge he needed. We interviewed trainers and were so drawn to Brady with his calmness, techniques and home environment, yes he uses his HOME, his own dogs and family in his training. Juice spent 5 weeks with Ridgeside K9 and came home a new dog! He is less anxious, confident, follows commands like a champ and shows no aggression. We are even now able to have him and the cats live in peace together. We are so proud of him and grateful to Brady for giving Juice a chance to be a happy, normal dog.

We chose Brady to train our one year old German Sheppard pup, Oscar. Brady told us upfront what we could expect from him and from Oscar when his training was complete. Oscar came home perfectly trained and is now a pleasure to travel with and hit the trails with. I no longer worry Oscar will knock someone over or jump on them. Oscar sits at doorways and waits for permission to cross the threshold. Oscar walks calmly and confidently on a leash and around kids and people. I no longer worry about Oscar pulling me so hard and hurting my shoulder. Oscar is very happy with his new skill set and we are happy he is so well behaved even with distractions and others around. Highly recommend Brady and his team!

We sent our Australian Shepherd puppy to Brady for his 2 week puppy training to learn basic manners and crate training (our puppy screamed for hours in the crate). Brady did a fantastic job training our strong willed puppy, he now goes into his crate without prompts, knows how to heel on a walk, and most importantly, knows place! Brady has been incredibly professional and helpful ever since we first contacted him. We have reached out with questions since we picked our puppy up and Brady is always quick to respond. We will be sending our dog to the adult training to refine his skills. We strongly recommend Ridgeside K9 and Brady to anyone looking for reliable in depth dog training.

Brady had my ACD for a month and she came back a different dog. She was always sweet and smart, but not only was she trained well when I got her back, she is more mature. She actually seems to look forward to training. I could not be more pleased with Brady’s work.

Brady was absolutely amazing working with our field golden Cinna! Cinna has crazy puppy energy and Brady harnessed that energy so that she is still our loveable girl, but now she is so well behaved! She used to pull while on the leash, jump up, and then look at me with side eye whenever I gave her commands. Now she is absolutely amazing, she walks in a heel off leash, and I was even able to call her off chasing a rabbit last week, which NEVER would have happened 2 months ago! Brady was also extremely flexible working with us when Cinna's heat cycle popped up on us unexpectedly. We did a break in training and brought her back home, but then were able to pick things right back up when her cycle was over. I HIGHLY recommend working with Brady!

Brady did a fantastic job with Mochi. She came home a different dog! We can now hang in the backyard without her barking and chasing dogs on the other side of the fence. I would absolutely recommend Brady for training.

We sent our six month old bullmastiff puppy to Brady and his crew for obedience and leash training. It was a 2 week training program and it was well worth it. Brady was able to quickly understand what motivates our dog (food) and educated us on how to be good dog parents. We could see a big difference in our dog when he got back. Now, our big boy is great on the leash and listens to commands. We are very happy with Brady! Highly recommend.

Brady did an incredible job training our field golden, Mango. We interviewed a number of trainers before finally selecting Brady, primarily because of the reviews and his candor on the training process. It was tough when Brady told us Mango would need 1 additional week away from home for the training to really get to the right level, but we trusted him, and it paid off in a big way. Before we couldn’t trust Mango off leash. He would always pull whomever was walking him which sometimes ended up with family members getting unintentionally hurt. After he came back, Mango was an obedient angel! He had the same goofy and high energy personality but understood not to pull, how to heel, how to stay in place, and has been INCREDIBLE off leash. We went from love and little trust of our pup to love and full trust - which has made the bond stronger and stronger each month since Mango has been home. We can’t thank Brady enough for the incredible care he took of Mango and amazing results from teaching him so much in such a short time. We would have liked more photos and updates along the way… but now we’re nitpicking. Highly recommended Ridgeside K9’s board and train program!

Brady was amazing with our 4 year old german shepherd. Backstory, we rescued her when she was a puppy and she’s always been terrified of people and other dogs which resulted in aggression. Not only did Brady give her confidence that not all people are bad but she also came back as a very obedient dog. He was very responsive and always gave us updates while she was gone for the 4 weeks. When it came to the end he was patient with teaching us everything that she learned and how to control her. He’s VERY knowledgeable and we are beyond blessed that we found him. I HIGHLY recommend ridgeside to anyone that wants to get their dog trained, he’s absolutely amazing.

I can’t stress enough how good Ridgeside is. I have a 4 year old German Shepherd rescue. Ever since we got her, she was terrified of everyone who came to the house and was aggressive. We were reluctant to do training in case it didn’t work. But, Brady and his team are PHENOMENAL. I can have guests at my house, go on walks, take her out in public all with zero issues. They also trained her how to heel. So, our walks are 100% more enjoyable not being pulled. 10/10 recommend to anyone who wants their dog trained, or might be on the fence.

We dropped off two crazy huskies during an out of town trip. When we returned, Brady spent several hours with us showing everything he had taught them the previous few weeks. The difference was night and day before/after the trip. Almost like we had two different dogs! They no longer pull on walks, they sit/stay for long periods of time on command, and no longer dash after food we drop on the ground. Thank you so much!

I highly recommend Ridgeside k-9 for your dog training needs. I was going back and forth with the idea of sending my GSD 10 month old to training, as I was unsure because of cost of investment and his age but it was the best choice I’ve ever made! Having my big puppy know boundaries and the rules makes both of our lives less stressful. It was worth every penny because I know I can trust him in public places, dog parks, on hikes, and even at home. Brady was very communicative on what I could expect and also sent pictures every week and an update on progress. After this experience it is evident Brady is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. It’s really amazing seeing how fast my dog picked up on things with what I call Brady’s boarding school! Chief was there 4-5 weeks and came home a little angel. Thank you Brady!!

Thank you very much for your review, Nathalie! We really enjoyed working with you and Chief and are so happy to hear that he is settled and doing well at home! Chief's definitely a smart guy, and we had a lot of fun working with him on his manners and obedience. Thank you for trusting us with him!

I am so grateful we found Ridgeside K9! We sent our pup Rebel to the Board and Train and are very happy with the results. He listens now, his reactivity to other dogs has diminished significantly, enough that I can take him hiking and it’s easier to walk him. They took such good care of him while he was gone too. In every picture he was clean, looked healthy and happy. I had particularly asked that maybe we could get some weight off him and Ridgeside helped do that in a healthy way. Our Vet was thrilled. If you are looking for a trainer I would definitely give them a try!
