"I had a great experience with Nate. He trained my Great Pyr/Husky/Shep mix and advised me on the type of puppy that would make a good companion for her and then trained him as well. That was 7 years ago and we're a happier family because of it."

"Owning and working with Presa Canarios, Nate has been great to have as a resource. He's confident and knowledgeable in his trade and he's also understanding when it comes to training strong willed large breed dogs. The knowledge he instilled will last a life time. Highly recommend choosing him for your training needs."

"Nathan is a wonderful trainer. He met us with patience and expertise at a time when we were at our wits end with our puppy. He trained her and us, while never breaking either of our spirits lol. Our dog never lost the lessons he instilled after 11 years of her life. To her dying day she sat before leaving our house and entering the hospital in her final moments. Nathan will become a lifelong resource and friend, I cannot recommend him or his services more. Hoping another puppy is in our future and we will not hesitate to drive multiple states to obtain his expertise."

"I started training my Frenchie with Nate early on, and here almost 9 years later I can say that the investment we made has paid off in so many ways. Not only did Nate care for my pup and help him learn what was expected of him, he also trained me on how to be a responsible dog owner and how to follow up on the training he did. There have been so many times over the years I have been thankful for the training that Nate did, as my pup is so responsive to the commands we worked on, and stays safe as a result. Highly recommended!!"

"We've had the pleasure of working with Nate for years, first with our own personal dogs, then with many of our rescue dogs, and we've confidently referred countless clients to him. Every experience has reinforced why we trust him so much. Nate has an incredibly calm, patient demeanor that immediately puts both dogs and their owners at ease. He understands that building trust takes time and emphasizes consistency, clear communication, and positive guidance rather than quick fixes. The changes we've seen in dogs after working with him have been remarkable, from improved confidence and better manners to calmer behavior and stronger relationships with their families. Whether he's working with a family pet or a rescue dog with a difficult past, Nate meets each dog where they are and helps them succeed. His knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care for every dog make him someone we recommend without hesitation. If you're looking for a trainer who creates lasting, positive change through trust, patience, and consistency, Nate is an excellent choice."

"We can't recommend Nate enough. After exhausting just about every option for our dog, Luna's, severe separation anxiety, we met Nate. Nate was knowledgeable, patient, and realistic throughout the entire process. He not only worked with Luna but also taught us how to work with her. Since then, we can leave the house without worrying she'll panic or destroy our home, and she's become an obedient, well-mannered member of our family. The transformation from before to after training was amazing. If you're looking for a trainer who genuinely knows what he's doing and is committed to getting results, Nate is the guy!"

"If you have a dog that is calm or crazy (like ours was), you need to see Nathan at Praising Kane Dog Training. In a few short weeks, he took our nut-job of a bird dog from hyper and out of control, to a PERFECT breed standard and OUTSTANDING family dog. He also did something I didn't know was possible: He trained our family, too! There is NO ONE I would consider training my dogs with than Nathan. Save yourself time, pain, and aggravation, while training your dog to be everything he or she can be, and call Praising Kane Dog Training."
