PeaceMakers Pack

“ We hired Tom from PeaceMakers Pack for a 3 week board and train prior to the arrival of our newborn. We had met with many trainers in the SD area and couldn’t find someone that was the right fit for us after meeting with 3+ trainers. Our dog Louie, while a loving and fun French bulldog puppy, struggled with managing excitement levels, general obedience, had destructive tendencies, horrific leash skills, separation anxiety etc. These were behaviors we desperately needed to curb before our baby arrived.

In 3 weeks, Louie became a different dog. He’s unbelievably patient and calm around our newborn, has exemplary obedience skills (sit, stay, come, place, off leash) and is now just a delight to spend time with. Basic things such as walks went from being a miserable experience to the highlight of our day. It was clear that Tom didn’t just train Louie, but established a strong bond and friendship with him that is evident by spending just two seconds with them together. While Louie’s training was unbelievable, it was arguably more important that my wife and I had the skill set to continue what he had started with Louie to achieve further success once he arrived home. Tom went above and beyond to make sure that we understood the training methods, while working patiently to help us understand how best to work with Louie in various social settings. It is clear his method is not the same for all clients, but rather completely customized depending on the needs of the dog and their owners.

If you are having any trouble at all with your dog’s training, I can’t recommend Tom possibly any more. Getting help from a professional has made all the difference, and it has been unbelievably rewarding to work with someone so knowledgeable, invested and friendly.”

“I signed my dog Murphy up for one-on-one training sessions with Tom at PeaceMakers Pack. I can honestly say that I have never spent my money so well. Tom has completely helped change my dog's behavior in 2 months, and he's like a whole new dog! I didn't think it was possible to have Murphy trained this well in such a short period of time. Not to mention, Murphy loves him! It is clear that Tom loves dogs and really wants to help them succeed. Tom's techniques and knowledge were incredible and I highly recommend him. For any future advanced training in San Diego, I will be seeking out Tom specifically.”

“We have been working with Tom the last few months to work on Tucker’s focus, leash training, and reactivity. Tom has been nothing short of amazing while working with us and Tucker. We (as dog parents) thought we had hit a wall with Tucker, as his reactivity to people and other dogs was too much to handle. We were embarrassed to even take him out in public because he almost always caused a scene. With Tom’s help, Tucker has seriously transformed. Tom has provided us with the tools to correct these behaviors and we are able to control Tucker versus him control us. Keep in mind Tucker is a 12 pound corgi mix, so he has that stubborn small dog complex. But ladies and gentlemen we have success!!!”
