I got introduced to ABC Training Kennels through another dog trainer that I had heard of through a family member. When I told them about my situation and explained everything that was going on with me and my dog Luna they knew that I needed to talk to and train with Akin. Luna and I have been through a lot together, she is very protective of me, and it got to a point where everything around us was a threat and moving into an apartment surrounded by dogs, and other people just really amplified this behavior into aggression and reactivity and my anxiety skyrocketed with it. After working with Akin, I am no longer anxious when handling my dog in public places. I can go to the store with her and not have to worry. I can go walk around my apartment and use the elevator and not have to worry about if there are people in the hallways or other dogs in the hallways. The whole experience has just been amazing. He is such a great person to work with and a great person to have gotten to know. Luna and I are very lucky to have found him and been able to work with him! We are very grateful:)
