Provided by YP.comMy Border Collie, Scotty and I just completed our first 5 week course of Obedience training with Mike of Champion Dog Training. Scotty is a 2 yr old rescue who was very sweet with zero “manners”.
I needed quick, focused obedience training in a hurry and knew Petsmart was not going to cut it. After much online research, I found Champion Dog Training and got in touch with Mike.
From our first lesson, we left with results. I left with tools and a new understanding of my dog (and a firmer voice). At the end of 5 weeks, not only does he listen up, but heels, sits, stands, stays, downs, etc like a soldier. We still have plenty to learn and continue to practice daily what Mike has taught us. We will begin our 2nd Obedience course with Mike in a couple of weeks.
He offers 5 week courses for different levels of obedience training which you as the handler participate in or will board and train your dog for 2 weeks straight and you come pick up your “new” dog. Either way you will get results and your dog will have the manners and obedience you’d always hoped for.
Mike is a kind, patient, experienced, professional dog trainer that delivers results. He is a retired BSO police officer and K9 trainer. I struck gold with Mike at Champion Dog Training and you can too. I don’t believe anyone has ever trained with Mike and was disappointed. As you can see, there are no mixed reviews; and for good reason.

Provided by YP.comWe took our 3 month old shepherd mix to Mike and are extremely satisfied with the results. Mike is very knowledgeable, thorough and patient. We thought our puppy was too young for training but now at 4 months she sits, heels, stays and lays down on command. It has made the puppy experience a whole lot easier and pleasurable. Our well behaved dog is the envy of everyone at the dog park and our dog owning neighbors .Can't wait to go back for advanced classes!!!!!!

Provided by YP.comMike Clark has really been a life saver, He has provided me the knowledge to effectively train my dog, Murphy. Murphy was a rescue dog and appeared to be scared of everyone and everything. With Mike's direction and guidance, Murphy has learned basic commands, can heel when walking and is socializing more with people and animals. I use Mike's techniques to practice daily and Murphy actually looks forward to it! Champion Dog Training is the way to go!

Provided by YP.comBEST Dog Trainer in South Florida!
Mike Clark is most professional and knowledgeable trainer in South Florida.
He was very helpful teaching me and my German Shepherd pup Rambo the basic on leash obedience training. Ive seen a great improvement in his behavior and leash manners. He walks perfectly next to me when we go for our daily walks, he sits & lays down on command, which is a total improvement from weeks before when he pulled me around on the leash and did not follow any commands. I highly recommend Mike at Champion Dog Training to anyone who needs any type of dog training. Thanks Mike

This is an un-bias testimony about a dog trainer I found on Craigslist a little over a month ago & I want to recommend him to EVERYONE!!! I have NEVER met him before this & have no connection with him in any way, but he is so incredible, I want to tell the world, so more dogs like mine, can have a chance at being saved & rehabilitated! Anyone who needs a dog trainer, NEEDS to call this man! He TRULY IS incredible!
MY STORY:
I adopted & saved a 90 lb. dog (Belgian Malinois mix I think) from euthansia at the Miami Dade Animal Services shelter. She is sweet & so loving with us but she hates other dogs & people. She wants to KILL other dogs & although she's never bitten a person, she has the potential to seriously harm someone. I couldn't even take her out for a walk b/c as soon as she would see someone walking another dog, she would go into attack mode & lunge & pull to get at the other dog. I love this dog, she's stolen my heart forever.... she sleeps in my bed every night & she's incredible with my teenager & we'll NEVER let her go but she needed serious training. I TRIED to rehabilitate her myself, I read books, watched videos, researched dog training on the internet, talked to dog experts of message forums, ect. & NOTHING WORKED!!!
To be honest, she was SO BAD that I thought it was hopeless. I kept her home 24/7 & I really was about to give up hope that she could ever be rehabilitated & live a normal life until I found Mike Clark & decided to give him a try & see if he could help me rehabiliate her.
The first session with Mike, changed my dog. It was incredible! I could NOT believe the MIRACLE he preformed in one hour! He IS another Cesar Milan! He KNOWS dogs! I can't explain it any other way. He stopped her leash pulling, he trained her to heel & sit & walk by another dog and person without lunging or trying to attack in ONE FREAKING SESSION! THAT'S how good he is!
We're still working on her training & she's a different dog now. Thanks to Mike, I can now walk her every night & she sits & heels on command & no longer pulls me down the street. My shoulder isn't ripped out of it's socket anymore. Life is good for us & for her & I have this amazing guy to thank for it.
So to anyone out there who needs a new dog evaluated or obedience training or if you have aggressive dogs or dogs that don't get along with other dogs or people, ANY dog issues at all, call Mike ASAP! He CAN & WILL help you! He is absolutely AMAZING & the REAL deal!
He's a retired policeman where he was a police dog trainer for 35 years. He has his own business called "Champion Dog Training" @ 954 748-5423 www.championdogtraining.com & you can find his ad on here too.

Provided by YP.comMike is a GREAT dog trainer. We adopted a small mixed breed puppy (Frank) from a Rescue organization, and while he is a great dog he was a bit rough around the edges and needed a some fine tuning in the "listening" department. We tried a group training class at PetSmart with absolutely ZERO results, so our Vet recommended Mike at Champion Dog Training. By the end of the first session Frank was already responding way more than he ever had before. We completed the 1st level of training with Mike, and we would recommend him to anyone who wants a well behaved, responsive dog.
Mike is the best! Give his course(s) a try.

Provided by YP.comA black lab showed up at our door out in the country. He was very undernourished and obviously a dumped dog. We took him in and found he had boundless energy and was a little to the wild side. We took him to 2 schools (which he failed)and the 2nd trainer, which trains local police dogs admitted our lab was the first dog in 20 years which could "break" her.
A neighbor recommended Mike as sort of a last ditch effort.
What a change. After his very first lesson with Mike, both our dog and us as owners, we could see a difference. His approach is kind and humane and involves both the dog and the owners.
We felt confident enough in Mike to return for 3 higher training levels with our dog. Our dog has progressed though each level of training successfully and if you have ever had a lab you will understand the challenges.
The dog whisperer has nothing on Mike.
Thank you.

Provided by YP.comMike Clark is by far, the best out there! He knows EXACTLY what he's talking about. He practices what he preaches. Our dog was peeing everywhere, not listening to us. Mike taught us how to be dog owners. We love our dog more and our dog loves us more. It is more like people training than it is dog training. Thank you Mike for everything!!! Mike & Sarah
