Good Dog Training

Known for

• aggression and reactivity

  “Brett Endes specializes in the aggression and reactivity other trainers gave up on, along with separation anxiety, puppy chaos, and real world obedience.”

• in-home training

  “30 plus years, more than 20,000 dogs, now training in your home across Greater Austin and the Hill Country.”

• balanced methods

  “His approach is balanced. Structure, leadership, and clear communication, not bribery with treats.”

• no board and train

  “No, and not at any price. A dog trained in a facility learns to obey that trainer in that facility, then goes home to a household that has not changed and the behavior degrades.”
