If you want simple, clear and concise help with your dog, I cannot recommend Gabriel more highly. In just a handful of meeting with me and my two Springers who had had little to no social interaction or leash training we were able to go to dog parks with ease and walk on leashes with ease. It's been very very gratifying. If you can get onto Gabriel's schedule, DO IT!
Gabriel was amazing with our rescue dog, Trevor. Trevor is pretty shy around new people but Gabriel was able to gain his trust amazingly quickly. Trevor is also not treat-motivated which can make him tougher to train, but Gabriel gave us great insights into how to motivate him based on positive reinforcement and building a strong relationship. Gabriel has also been available whenever we have a question about how to handle something, and his advice always works. I couldn't recommend Gabriel more highly.
Gabriel is such a wonderful trainer he's almost a magician. I have a Cardigan Corgi -- which are known for their personalities, intelligence, and ability to split open ear drums with their barks. Within 15 minutes of showing up at my home, Gabriel had my dog obeying his silent commands to stop the barking. And he trained me to keep that up. I highly recommend him for your dog trainings needs.
Gabriel is an outstanding resource for anyone with a dog. I hesitate to call him a trainer because his approach is really so much more expansive than that - focusing on addressing the root cause of behaviors, rather than simply teaching the dog to do something on command. With Gabriel's help - your dog truly will start to train himself. I cannot recommend Gabriel more highly!
Working with Gabriel was an absolute pleasure. It was a surprise and a delight seeing how he was able to calm our excited pup in mere minutes, getting her to stop jumping and biting erratically. Furthermore, his advice and guidance has helped us walk our very stubborn bulldog tremendously. Almost a night and day change from before our single session with Gabriel to after he had left. What's most impressive about Gabriel is his deep understanding of how to work with dogs as opposed to how to scold them and try to force them to your will. Truly a very instructive and rewarding experience just as we were at our wits' ends following random online advice. I could not recommend working with Gabriel more.
Gabriel is the best there is. I had a corgi puppy who had no boundaries. I loved him but I was losing hope and was even thinking of giving him away because he was very aggressive and was hurting me physically as well as mentally. Gabriel said he has a big dog energy inside his small body to give you an idea. I tried numerous training methods then saw reviews on Gabriel. From our first meeting, I knew he would be the one to help train my puppy Koda. He was so good that I purchased about 10 more sessions. Every session he is hands on and gives you a TON of information and he sees which method would work best. He is also willing to help through phone call if you have questions on the training or need a refresher. His rates are very fair as he is willing to go the extra mile in every session. My dog Koda is now 1.5 years old now and he is my best friend and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Gabriel is the best investment I have made. Don’t believe the “they will grow out of it” idea because it is completely false. Highly recommend
Gabriel is absolutely amazing! Bell had developed a fear of walking outside in NYC and we couldn’t get her to leave our street to go for a walk. After one session with Gabriel, we were able to go on walks with Bell again! He taught us really important techniques that we still use today.
Gabriel worked with my 1.5 yo poodle and I. She was experiencing aggression with scooters and bikes. He taught me how to manage her and also how to teach her to feel comfortable around them. He has an immediately calming presence and I loved working with him. I plan to go back to him, if I ever have any other issues.
After one session with Gabriel, we cannot recommend him enough. Our 3 year old rescue, Rox, struggles with reactiveness and fairly severe anxiety, particularly around new people, but she warmed up to Gabriel in a matter of minutes. He explains things so clearly and thoughtfully and has a calming presence that set all of us, and especially Rox, at ease. He gave us some great tips about changing a dog's mindset, even if you can't change their surroundings, and we noticed her feeling more comfortable almost instantly. On top of that, he gave us some extremely easy leash techniques to implement right away, and she has gone from a "2/10" walker to walking calmly with a loose leash in a matter of days. We can't wait to work with him more as we continue to work on new skills with sweet Rox. Thank you Gabriel!
I can't say enough great things about Pawmos Pet Care formerly City Dog Strut. Gabriel walks and trains our dogs. He really has a gift with dogs. I have a stubborn, dominant bull dog who was very grouchy with other dogs. With Gabriel's patient, kind manner, she now she walks happily, enjoying the pack. He has helped train our brand new 2 year old, very nervous Golden Retriever, always giving positive feedback to the dog and to us! I have used other dog walkers and trainers in the past but Pawmos Pet Care is by far the best experience we have had.
