What Clients Say

My seven year old German Shepherd was randomly aggressive to one of the dogs she grew up with. I was worried, but I’m super relieved I found Oscar who works with modifying that behavior. I live two hours away, but it was worth the travel. She’s home now and doing so well. I really appreciate the work they do.

Haley Calicott

He’s always done such a great job taking care of my dog. I’ve never had any problems with him or my dog. He’s even gone as far to help me find healthier dog food and tips that make me and my dogs life easier

Allana Hurst

Oscar is one of the best trainers in Houston! He has trained both of our dogs Baron and Belle. Baron, a Dutch Shepherd, especially is a dog not for the novice owner and of course I had never owned a dog… We had a difficult start and Oscar went above and beyond to help me build our relationship and make him more mine then my husbands. He spent weeks building my confidence and mending my relationship with our Baron. He is literally Baron’s second Dad and we owe Oscar a lot. With Belle, our beautiful golden retriever, he actually corrected one of her bad habits within one session! Highly recommend him for any dog training you need!

Charlotte Deom

Our dog wasn’t never listened and had social issues with other dogs. We took him to oscar for 3 weeks and he is like a new dog. He gets along fine with our family’s dogs now and he actually listens to us. Ontop of that, he walks great on a leash and actually goes in his kennel. I would recommend picking up one of his leashes because it helps with the acclimating to your household. Will definitely recommend and use oscar in the future.

Bryan Bauer

Oscar was phenomenal! Our mini Aussie, Draco, was a wild child. He went and did a 3 week board and train with Oscar and came back extremely well trained. He used to tug at the leash and chase everywhere and now walks right next to your heel, stays, waits, and can place at home when needed. I recommend Oscar for any dog related tasks. Not only does he train, he has an expansive knowledge of what to look at as far as health and wellness, and personality of your dog

David Wisniewski

Oscar was great with our four year old German Shepherd, breaking her off bad habits, and making her a really great behaving pet. He was also patient in meeting us and having us work with our dog to insure she maintains her great behavior.

Jeff Miller

Oscar did a great job with my six month old German Shepherd, Ace. Ace is 100 percent Alpha which means he wants to have his way all the time. Oscar was able to get Ace to follow the basic commands sit, down, off, place, leave it and walking on the leash. During a follow up visit, he was able to get Ace to stay. I will continue to allow Oscar to work with Ace.

Timothy Martin

Thank you to Oscar who made this possible! This handsome gentleman was a jumper, about pulled my arm off on a leash, and pretty much had no manners to speak of and I knew he was on his way to being a very large dog based upon his daddys size.

We went on vacation and handed him over to Oscar hoping for a miracle. No miracle needed, what you see below is skill!  Now this young pup stays in “place” until he is told he can leave, even when the AT&T guy was in the house, walks very nicely and is just an all around better behaved dog.  Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trainer!
