  In the spring of 2006, we enrolled our 6-month-old Jack Russell Terrier into the group Basic Obedience class at Gillette Kennels. Over the 8-week class, my wife and I were amazed at how effective Kirk’s methods of training worked, even on day one!! Our JRT passed away in August of 2017 and to the day of her death, she was the happiest dog around and very obedient.
  
  In October of 2017 we rescued another dog, this time it was a Chocolate Lab. The Shelter did not know her previous history. We were offered obedience training at the facility we rescued her from at a reduced rate. We accepted their offer and started classes a few weeks later. Three sessions completed and our lab was not learning commands and her behavior was actually getting obnoxious. The training we were getting was not effective at all and my gut feeling was it was incorrect. There wasn’t any structure or discipline to the class.
  
  November 2017, we sought out Kirk Gillette’s help once again. We brought our lab in for a behavior consultation and my gut feeling was correct, we were reinforcing unwanted behavior (incorrectly teaching us). During this visit with Kirk, we observed immediate results. Everything we learned in 2006 started to come back to us. In January 2018, we enrolled in Private Lessons with Kirk.
  
  If you are a dog owner and in search of a great Obedience Training class for your dog, look no further than Gillette Kennels. Kirk has all the knowledge AND experience to train your dog and YOU! Kirk cares about the welfare of your dog during the sessions and ensures you are comfortable training your dog using his proven methods. Without hesitation, we would highly recommend Gillette Kennels for you training needs.
  
  In our opinion, if you want the one on one interaction with Kirk, private lessons over the group lessons are the way to go if your dog gets severely distracted. Whatever path you choose, you cannot go wrong.
  
  Kirk, Carolyn and I want to thank you once again. You are awesome! See you in Advanced Classes.
