Dogs are pack animals, and every pack has an alpha. Within the pack, other members are either dominant or submissive. In other words, every individual has a place. For there to be peace at home, a dog must view their human owner as the alpha.

"Kona "
Mike at North Boston Dog Training is amazing! I sent my beautiful girl Kona to him for the 2 week board and train! She is a 2 year old Golden that was in the midst of training to be a therapy dog when COVID hit! She was too attached to me and in desperate need of recall and off leash training! In the two weeks she spent with Mike I can tell she bonded with him and trusted his methods! She is working so well with the commands and training techniques he instilled in her. We are using the E-collar but I have to say she has only required minimal correction! I am thrilled with her results and her behavior off leash. She is still her fun loving, playful, mischievous self but is easily redirected now! Thank you Mike for a wonderful experience!

"CHARLY"
We had the best experience!! I have so many positive things to say about Mike and North Boston Dog Training! My 2 year old typical lab just finished the 2 week training. We signed her up because she can be a real brat! We wanted help with walking on leash without pulling and basic commands that she would defy when she felt like it. He has done ALL of that and MORE! She walks without pulling, can walk off leash and will listen to all commands when given. He set these expectations for her and she has really picked up on them. I could not be happier. My dog loved going to work with him and I honestly didn't want it to end. Mike was so helpful each morning and afternoon. He was kind and really cared about our dog. Don't even think twice and call Mike to help you!

"Tilly"
Mike Harrington trained Tilly, our 4 year old English Bulldog, and me. We were having issues with aggressive behavior when she was frightened-- which was growing from passing cars on daily walks to the vacuum in the home, and it was all becoming unlivable and unsafe. Mike understands the dog's behavior and the point of view behind it-- and with that, can teach the owners to approach and manage the dynamics successfully. It takes a great deal of wisdom, experience, and patience-- all of which Mike has. With this, re-training, even of a dog who was not a puppy, was possible and done in no time at all. We have lots of reps to do on our own to get to maximum benefit, but that's the beauty of Mike's approach... he teaches the owner to do it right and you can then proceed independently, with the dog benefiting and responding to the now appropriately defined and managed situations. If you are even wondering if you need this kind of dog (human) training-- you do! Mike Harrington is the answer.
"Rip"
Thank you Rhonda!!
Rip was so well behaved at Christmas Eve. 20 people. I’m not using the collar.
Just having it on him and him seeing me with the transmitter is enough.
Great job training Rip Tell Mike thank you.
The timing couldn’t have been better.
Merry Christmas

PROVEN RESULTS
"Scooby"
Mike was awesome with our 5 month old Basset Hound that preferred to follow his nose than listen to anything we had to say. We did the 2 week board and train with him and wished we did it sooner. Scooby came home a perfect gentlemen and we felt confident and equipped with the information to continue his training. No more eating gloves or socks from the sidewalk, no more nipping or biting, no more aggression, no pulling on the leash. A completely calm and mature dog! Mike fixed it all! He was also very accommodating with working around our work schedule, great and professional business all around. HIGHLY recommend for any dog owner and we will definitely seek Mike out again for future dogs that join our family.
"ENZO"
We cannot say enough about Mike Harrington. He is a miracle worker. We were referred to Mike by a friend. I can see why. Mike is a miracle worker. Our 1 year old golden was a total puppy. Jumping, playing, and always demanding attention. Walking him was always a challenge. This puppy is 67 lbs! After the two-week course, he is just not the same dog. He walks off-leash and never leaves my side. He is attentive and listens. Enzo loves Mike as soon as he sees the building he can't wait to get to him. We have given Mike visitation rights anytime. We love Mike for helping us achieve what I never would have thought possible. A well behaved 4 legged buddy! The Magnifico Family
"Ceaser"
Mike Harrington is the consummate professional dog trainer. We adopted a year old Boxer Caesar who was a sweet dog. But he was anxious and not confident. Following a phone consultation with Mike we decided to have Caesar do a two week in house training series with Mike. Following completion of the program I met with Mike for an hour to work with Caesar to learn how to continue with the training Mike began with Caesar. He is a very different dog: confident and well mannered. Thanks Mike!

"ZIGGY"
Our 10 month old Golden Retriever, Ziggy was out of control! It was so bad, we were discussing re-homing options. In just 2 short weeks, Mike has transformed him into a perfect gentleman! Thank you, Mike!

"Stowely"
Our 80 lb puppy was pulling, yanking, and dragging us everywhere we went. She would chase dogs and leaves and occasionally jump on people. She would come when called, maybe 50% of the time. We signed her up for a two week training with Mike and in ONE day, he had her heeling and walking by our side. Things only improved from there. She is obeying all commands and people can't believe how well behaved she is. Can't recommend Mike highly enough!

"LUNA"
