Cameron Nuechterlein
Behavior Trainer

We have a very happy and very energetic pup and she came to us through a rehome. She is noise and leash reactive and believe this is her odd way of trying to make new friends because there isn’t a creatures she’s encounter that she doesn’t love. However, this makes it very difficult to take her on walks, have the windows open in a nice day and we certainly can’t take her anywhere including our local dog wash.

I was referred to chill out from a friend who had a great experience and let me tell you, the training after one session has turned our lives around. We tried to do positive reinforcement but that didn’t help any of us, trying to do distraction training also failed since she was so focused on what she saw. Chill out training along with proper e collar training was our win. We were able to easily retain what we learned in our first session and abbi also praised us for the things us humans were doing right. We still have a ways to go to our sweetie is her best self but we already see improvements that are lasting to the next day and week.

Cameron was absolutely amazing! I’ll admit I was skeptical after the phone consultation when I was told I would notice a difference in Fuller after just one session, but this was one of those times I was genuinely thrilled to be proven wrong.

After Fuller and I were attacked by another dog, he became extremely reactive, and our walks left both of us constantly on high alert. I was at my wits’ end and didn’t know how to help my boy feel safe or confident again.

Cameron arrived right on time and was incredibly professional throughout the entire session. While we were discussing the training tools in my lobby, a few dogs walked by and Fuller immediately began barking and growling. Cameron stepped in and showed me how quickly Fuller’s behavior could change by redirecting his focus and reassuring him that he was safe.

We then spent the next 90 minutes walking through my neighborhood and practicing techniques in real-life situations. Cameron didn’t simply take over or train Fuller for me. He let me learn by doing, coached me through each situation, and showed me how to use the tools confidently on my own. He didn’t just rebuild Fuller’s confidence; he rebuilt mine, too.

It has now been a few days and several walks since our session, and Fuller already feels like a completely different dog. We can finally focus and enjoy our walks instead of constantly being on guard. This experience was worth every cent for the peace of mind it gave me and the sense of security it helped Fuller regain. I finally feel like I’m getting my happy boy back, and I cannot recommend Cameron enough!

My pup and our fam has benefited immensely from training with Cameron through Chill Out Dog Training. She is such a sweet girl, but with a lot of energy and drive. Her big feelings make it difficult for her to navigate specific situations. Thank you guys so so much, and I’m sure we will be back for some extra learning and training. I really appreciate your help. Our experience was nothing short of amazing.

I can’t recommend Chill Our Dog Training enough! We really wanted to be able to take our 8 month old puppy on off leash hikes, and in just three sessions, Cameron & Scott got him to be able to do just that!

Working with Cameron at Chill Out Dog Training has been a game changer. We couldn't even walk our reactive cattle dogs past bikes, scooters, or other dogs without major stress. After just one session, we were back to peaceful daily walks, and the progress across all three sessions has been incredible. Cameron truly changed our lives and our dogs' lives for the better. We can't recommend Chill Out Dog Training enough!

Absolutely would recommend using Chill Out Dog Training. Abbi was great. It was really seamless how she worked with both my dog and myself for the level of training we came in at to get us to where we wanted to be. The progression between the sessions was great, the discussion around how to use the tools was great, and I left each session knowing what to work on on our own before the next session. My dog and I got to where I wanted us to be when we started out, and I feel like I have the tools to keep us improving.

I’ve worked with Cameron several times to help my two dogs with leash reactivity, barking, and polite leash walking. Each session, I’m amazed at my dogs’ progress. I highly recommend using Cameron for any training need.

I was very nervous about starting e-collar training for my hyper-reactive Cattledog, but our trainer Cameron led us so expertly through the whole experience. I knew right away that he was going to be a great fit as soon as I felt his calm, firm guidance; as we all know half the training is for the humans!

As for results - to say it's been a life changer is underselling it. I am now able to walk my dog on loose leash, my own fear and anxiety level is down to 2 throughout most of the walk and Cameron was even able to train for strangers entering the home without my dog feeling like we were about to be murdered. All things that I sincerely did not believe were possible -- and accomplished in three sessions.

I would recommend Chill Out Dog Training South Denver, and Cameron, for anyone (and their dog) that feel they are at the edge of sanity with their training process.

We’ve had great experiences with Chill Out Dog Training over several training sessions. We worked with Cameron 1.5 years ago with our first and are currently working with Abbi since we have a new dog. Both trainers have been extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We saw results after one training sessions for both trainers. Not only are our dogs less reactive, we also feel more confident in taking our dogs out.

I have a mini long-haired dachshund named Bobby who started out so well behaved. We were working hard to make sure he got the proper exposure and socialization that he needed to become a well rounded dog. After he turned one year old, another dog attacked him while on the leash. Ever since then he became unpredictable on the leash both to people and especially other dogs. We live in a small mountain town where the trainers said they would not accept reactive or aggressive dogs, making it difficult to feel enthusiastic about overcoming this behavioral setback.

We received a lot of harsh judgment when our main goal was just to support our pup the best we can. We had reached out to several training providers who made us feel even more discouraged. They would insist on the most intensive program they offer without ever even meeting Bobby. They would charge thousands of dollars up front without allowing us to tour their facility, only offer board and train programs, insist on only training with a collar and claiming the collar as a lifelong tool that would likely not be phased out. They would keep things vague and unclear on what to expect.

This made it all so confusing for us. Just when we were ready to throw in the towel and give up on finding a trainer that aligned with our expectations I was reading on a Reddit post and found Chill Out Dog Training. The post went on with several, several comments from many people claiming an overall great experience. Still a bit weary I chose to reach out. Scott answered all my questions, thoughtfully and thoroughly. Since we have to travel 2 1/2 hours to meet and train, he helped align us with a schedule and made it very clear on what we would expect. For the first time, I felt excited to work with a trainer, and felt that my expectations were being heard and attended to.

We worked with Cameron and have seen such an incredible difference in Bobby’s behaviors. I was at the point of feeling like maybe Bobby wouldn’t be the dog that could go everywhere with us and that we’d have to be ready for stress whenever we left the house, but Cameron and Chill out Dog Training as a whole has made us feel confident in Bobby’s potential and overall abilities. This has been such a refreshing experience!

I have a very spirited blue heeler with issue of barking, jumping, leash-pulling, and mounting other dogs. After an initial session with Scott and two follow-up sessions with Cameron, my dog has seen a complete positive correction with these behaviors. Chill Out is a well-worth investment. I also highly recommend going ahead and purchasing the package that includes the e-collar. This has been such an effective tool at correcting my dog's behavior and well worth the extra investment. Both Scott and Cameron were both very knowledgeable in their craft and were very effective with their methods. Highly recommend!

Simply put, Cameron is an amazing dog trainer and we very highly recommend him. We started working with Cameron for our 3 year old labradoodle Charlie. Charlie has a lot of anxiety and he is a barker. We also have a toddler whom Charlie was stealing food from, getting jealous of, etc. At first, we were VERY hesitant to try this due to Charlie’s sensitive self. Within three sessions, we have such a happier and well behaved pup, and it was totally worth it! I truly can tell Charlie feels more confident in himself, and he is still the most loving boy in the whole world. Cameron was so patient with us as we learned the e-collar, and he was also available via text when we had any questions in-between sessions. He was great at creating analogies to help my husband and I better understand situations and how to respond (so not only do I feel like we got training for Charlie, but I also feel like we learned so much about dog behavior in general). It also helped that Cameron was a super cool dude who was easy to hang out with during the sessions. Thank you so much Cameron!!!!!!!!

Our dog had major aggression issues with other dogs. The training was incredibly effective, a huge improvement after his first lesson. In fact his behavior was improving faster than we could accept and it took Cameron at our second lesson to demonstrate to us how much more relaxed we could be on encountering other dogs.

Working with Cameron and Chill Out Dog Training has been extremely helpful over the past few months with our 9 month old German Shepherd. We wanted to focus on loose leash walking and leash reactivity while walking. Introducing the e-collar through their training methodology has completely transformed our walks. Highly recommend, the price is worth the results you get working with them!

We have a whole new dog after 3 sessions with Cameron! Our young lab, Remy, is very happy and enthusiastic, but he was a huge pain to walk. He would act out aggressively when he got frustrated that he couldn’t get close enough to sniff other dogs. We tried so much positive reinforcement training, but he would get way too intense for us to be able to distract or entice him. Cameron gave us some options and said we’d get the quickest and most predictable progress with an e-collar. Remy almost immediately learned not to over-react or focus too intensely on other dogs. I was resistant to using punishment-based training methods, but it was unfair for us not to walk a high-energy dog enough because he was too hard to handle. I appreciated that we use the lowest noticeable setting on the e-collar so it’s just enough to get his attention and snap him out of his fixation and it’s made us all so much happier! Cameron seems to really understand dog behavior and emotions in a super helpful way so we can predict Remy’s reactions based on small movements or changes. I will say he was definitely stressed out after the first training session (when he needed the most correction) but he was his normal happy-go-lucky self during the other two. In addition to walks being a dream now, we got so many tips for manners around the house and in public. If you’re struggling with behavior that makes life with your dog difficult or are thinking about re-homing, Chill Out Dog Training is a great way to get a complete reset for your furry friend!

This training was completely lifechanging for my dog and our quality of life. This review is long-winded because the impact this training had on our lives is tremendous. My dog had a very complicated history before I adopted her - from severe neglect, to physical injuries, and behavior problems that seriously limited her ability to engage with others or what she could do outside of the home. I (with the help of other professionals as well, and the shelter I was initially fostering her through) had an incredibly difficult time training her - she had to be regularly muzzled, and went through countless training approaches, including medications, to no avail. She completed a four-week positive reinforcement only board-and-train prior to Chill Out that did not have a significant impact on her emotional regulation and behavior problems. I was prepared for a lifetime of accommodations for my pup, until an e-collar training was recommended to me. I had a consultation with another company and the trainer didn't really listen to me and seemed mostly focused on my money, before finding Chill Out and connecting with Scott. I truly felt heard and that my individual concerns and dog's needs were being cared for when talking to him. After the consult, I purchased the E-Collar Package with 3 individual training sessions and I could not be more happy with my experience with Cameron. I would never have imagined the confidence I now have in my dog. I have complete trust in her in every situation - she has 10/10 recall and knows & follows all of her commands. She now has the freedom to go off-leash hiking and backpacking, to dog parks (her favorite), and to new environments without concern. And I now have the freedom to host, to have new people over to the house, to bring her on my outings, and to let her interact with new dogs and people without concern. I'm honestly crying as I write this because I am so grateful for the quality of life my dog is able to have now thanks to Cameron and the team at Chill Out. She is absolutely thriving, and I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you <3

Cameron has been a life-saver for my dog James. I adopted him at 8 months old after he was shuffled between 4 different fosters due to being born deaf/blind. Not knowing how to train a puppy with these disabilities was so disheartening and Cameron changed everything for us. Not only is James not resource guarding or being aggressive anymore, he is able to sit, stay, and walk on a leash. He plays nicely with my other dog and is able to respect boundaries. Cameron has given him the gift of living a normal, full life even with his special needs and I couldn't be more grateful.

We had an amazing experience working with Scott and Cameron. My husband and I were ready to rehome our one and a half-year-old female Cane Corso and Chill out dog training was our last resort. We purchased a three pack and already have seen so much progress in our little girl. We’re so excited that we now get to keep her as a member of our family and get to grow learning more about each other other.
Thira Used to be very aggressive and protective and now she is finally learning when she needs to be a guard dog, and when she can be a dog. Chill out has given us the opportunity to see that in her.

Thank you so much for allowing us to extend our family size and welcome Thira as one of the pack

Both Cameron and Abbi were very knowledgeable and taught me how to read my dogs body language to know the right timing for correcting negative behaviors. The sessions made a huge improvement and I would recommend either of them to anybody struggling with their dog. The price was I'd say reasonable given how much my dog changed in such a short amount of time. 10/10!

Chill Out Dog training has been a blessing to our two dogs. After starting to see some unfortunate aggressive behavior we decided it was time to call in the professionals. I'm so happy that we stumbled upon Chill Out Dog training. We purchased the 2 dog e-collar package and just finished our last session today. I can hardly believe the difference in our dogs' behavior and manners already. As an example, previous vet appointments required two adults to load up, carry in and corral one dog! After our second session with Cameron the same dog calmly got into to the car and walked into the vet office without a fuss. I cannot praise Cameron and Chill Out Dog Training enough!

If you're reading this, you're probably so desperate for help and I can relate. I can't recommend this training company enough. They truly helped save my relationship with my reactive dog, Teddy, who made walks extremely difficult and stressful for both of us. It was

I was hesitant on the use of an e-collar but within the first session the improvements were unbelievable.

Cameron was our trainer and was phenomenal with training me on how to set up both or my dogs for success.

I've used other trainers who were nowhere near as effective or direct in getting results.

10/10. Thank you Cameron!

I cannot recommend this company enough! My dog, Mavis, was having severe reactivity toward bikes and people, and her behavior was only escalating despite the training I was trying to do with her. I came to Scott and Cameron with low hopes that they would be able to do anything that would make a difference, but after the 3-session package I can honestly say Mavis' behavior has improved so dramatically that I can comfortably take her on walks through the park past all of her former triggers. We worked directly with Cameron, and he provided lots of insight on use of the e-collar as a form of communication, methods of training for a reactive dog, and lots of encouragement. I cannot recommend this company enough, especially if you are feeling like you have already tried everything.

We just had our first session yesterday for our high prey drive boy Cobe. Other reviews said they saw a huge improvement after just one session but I was still trying to temper my expectations because every dog is different. But wow. Within the first 30 minutes of our session with Cameron I already saw a huge improvement in his ability to listen and not becoming fixated on distractions. That continued to be the case on our solo walk today. I would say it’s magic, but it’s just than talented and experienced trainers that give clear and concise directions. We needed to be trained just as much as Cobe and understanding how to use the e collar effectively is definitely going to be our saving grace. I did a lot of research comparing pricing, reviews etc. and I’m so glad we went with chill out dog training, it’s the best investment we’ve made in a while.

My girlfriend Shaely and I had an incredible experience working with Cameron at Chill Out Dog Training. From the very first session, it was clear that Cameron is not only extremely knowledgeable about dog behavior, but also has a real gift for teaching people how to apply the right techniques with confidence and consistency.

Our dog Penny can be reactive, and we weren’t sure where to start, but Cameron’s calm, patient approach made a huge difference. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and tailored his training to our specific needs. We saw noticeable improvements right away, and we now feel much more equipped to handle challenging situations with Penny.

We’re so grateful for the tools and insight Cameron provided, and we look forward to continuing to use his methods moving forward. Highly recommend Chill Out Dog Training to anyone looking for expert guidance and real results!

If you're thinking about booking a session with Chill Out, DO IT! We adopted a dog, Hugo, that was reactive on leash to other dogs and I was trying to fix it on my own with a prong collar and patience but it was only getting us so far. We decided to take the plunge and commit to the 3 session + e-collar package, and I cannot recommend it enough. As Scott said on our consultation call, the first session was like an intervention and we haven't looked back since! The $ and effort has been so worth it. I feel confident on walks with Hugo now, and comfortable taking him anywhere. Our bond has been strengthened so much. Working with Cameron was great! He's very knowledgable and answered all of our silly questions as we worked together. I definitely recommend giving them a call if you're feeling stuck!

I have a 55 lb rescue dog, mix of Australian Kelpie and German Shepard. Quinn is 5 years old. Quinn would pull on her leash, not walk with me, be reactive to people, dogs, bunnies, and squirrels. My biggest issue was that I could not have anyone come into my home. Quinn would become very protective and reactive. After my first session, Quinn stopped pulling on the leash and would walk beside me. After the second session, the air conditioner repair man came into my home to service the air conditioner, and Quinn stayed in her bed as I held her leash. The repair man commented on how much better she behaved (I used to lock her in my room). Quinn now walks past bunnies and does not react to them. I had three sessions with Chill Out Dog Training. The first was at my home with Cameron. The second was at my home with Scott, and the third was at Washington Park with Scott. Cameron and Scott were wonderful. They were patient, kind, and shared a lot of important information with me. It is important that you also do your homework and enforce what you and your dog learn in between sessions. I am very pleased that I chose Chill Out Dog Training to help me train Quinn. I highly recommend them. It was important to me that I found training that would come to me because Quinn has some stomach issues. I could not envision taking her and leaving her somewhere for weeks. I highly recommend Chill Out Dog Training. 5 stars! Thank you Cameron and Scott!

Cameron was fantastic with our 7 month old Blue Heeler mix. He helped with her leash pulling and other excited puppy shenanigans. Most importantly, he taught me how to give her the structure she needs to thrive. We've seen such a positive difference, highly recommend!

Our Golden had constantly barked for 4 years which very much disrupted our household. I thought of the trachea surgery as the bark collar we bought on Amazon wasn’t a solution. Cameron did a great job introducing the e-color. Within the first couple days, she has rarely barked and thank goodness life is peaceful again! A worthwhile investment for everyone!

Scott and Cameron are expert in this dog training field. Their demeanor was so calming with our very anxious dog, they were both so easy to work with.

Cameron went above and beyond in our initial session to help fine tune certain behavior issues we were having. Chill out dog training is the first company that has not felt "pushy" regarding scheduling sessions or packages/board & train. Cameron even followed up and truly seems to care. If you are looking for professionals that are actually skilled in dealing with reactivity or aggressive behaviors- chill out dog training is for you and your pup!

Cam and Chill out dog training were great. Before I even signed up for classes, they answered all my questions around training without me paying anything yet.

Cam did a great job with our dog. By the end of our sessions, he was done pulling on the leash and non reactive towards larger objects which were our main issues.

He learned general obedience as well, highly recommend working with them. Worth every penny.

I did two training sessions with Cameron for my dog and would highly recommend Chill Out Dog Training to any of my friends/family. Cameron was extremely knowledgable and was able to easily communicate training methods for the issues that my dog was having within two 90 minute sessions, and I feel confident that I'll be able to carry forward that training in the future. I have already seen huge improvements with my dog and her reactivity!

I’m the 4th or 5th guardian of a sweet GSD with a lot of anxiety and incessant fence barking. Cameron did a great job of training both me and my dog. If the collar is on she won’t bark in the yard. I no longer have to use the stim. (I chose not to correct indoor barking)
She no longer eats poop and she can walk around the block without having a panic attack and trying to run home. The stim paused her fear reaction long enough for her to take her cues from me. Altogether, she’s a happier, more relaxed and outgoing dog. She has clarity on what is ok and not ok. (My guess is that there was a lot of confusing yelling at her in the past) l think she’s also happy to not have the “responsibility “ of being the barker. I highly recommend Cameron for his calm, clear and positive approach!

Cameron was super helpful and knowledgeable. Followed up after first session to make sure everything was going well.

Cameron was amazing! He completely transformed Louie from a rambunctious 9 month old puppy that was impossible to control into a dog that can walk through wash park calmly (still a work in progress, but has made amazing strides). I can’t recommend the ecollar training with Cameron enough, he is a wonderful teacher for humans and trainer for pups!

Cameron has been incredible. The training has been so helpful and really changed our relationship with our dog. Thank you so much!!!

I would highly recommend using chill out dog! Cameron was fantastic. Our dog Lola learned so much.

We have had a wonderful experience with Chill Out Dog Training. Our dog was very reactive when we first got her, both to other dogs and anything on wheels (bikes, scooters, skateboards, etc). We were so excited to take our dogs when we rescued her but walks were not enjoyable because she was so reactive. Through working with Cameron, our pup has undergone some amazing transformation! Cameron worked on not only changing behaviors of our dog in the 1:1 sessions, but almost more importantly, training us as owners on what we should be doing outside of our training sessions to keep progress moving forward. We did three sessions with Cameron and now we take our pup on walks and hikes all the time, both of which are now very enjoyable for both her and us! We did a lot of research before selecting a training company and I am very happy with our results. Would definitely recommend Chill Out to anyone!

I can't recommend Cameron and the team at Chill Out Training enough. Our goldendoodles are great dogs who have received plenty of training in the past, but we had never been able to get them to behave on a leash. They would pull all over the place, get tangled up, and drag us after every runner, dog, squirrel, cat, or child that would pass by. There were more than a few times where walks would frustrate us to the point of tears (especially after a long day of work). We've so badly wanted to give them the Colorado dog experience, but any time we have taken them camping or hiking it has turned into a big mess. We couldn't even take them to sit at a coffee shop without them making some sort of scene with their barking and excitable behavior.

When we first met Cameron, we felt super reluctant about the E-collar. All I can tell you is it has changed our dogs' lives. Not only do they get pumped when we put on their collars (they have figured out it means extra long walk time), they seem so much more happy and at ease when we are out and about. Cameron gave us the perfect guidance to use this tool while also using meaningful training cues to guide them toward better behaviors. Our pups still have some work to do and we will be booking sessions in the future, but the 3 session package did more for our dogs than any previous training sessions combined. We have already taken them on more adventures in and around the city (including sitting on patios!) and look forward to hikes and lake trips when it gets warm out again. Even our neighbors have made comments about how well-behaved they are which is high praise because we definitely had "those dogs" in the neighborhood. This training is the best investment we've ever made for our dogs' safety and well-being.

I can't recommend Cameron enough! After months of intensive training and even several weeks of boarding with other trainers over the past two years, my dog Magpie still had behaviors we couldn't quite fix. Then we found Cameron, and in just two sessions we've accomplished more than I ever thought possible. His approach is intuitive, thoughtful, effective, and truly tailored to Magpie's needs. He's simply the best dog trainer I've ever worked with and I'm beyond grateful for his help. If you're looking for real results, Cameron is the trainer you need!

I own a Doberman Pinscher with social anxiety which has made life in a very populated neighborhood difficult. In addition to constantly pulling on walks, she also had unpredictable reactivity to dogs and humans. At home, she was constantly barking at passersby. After the first session with Scott, her pulling and reactivity improved ~90%. Walks with her immediately became enjoyable (and I stopped having to wear my SI belt to protect my back from an unrelated injury ha). She also stopped barking at every living thing that walked by our place. I could not believe that my main 3 concerns were so drastically improved within the first 1.5 hours of training! We have continued to work with Scott on a few additional issues, and he’s always very helpful, astute, and communicates clearly. I’m incredibly grateful for Scott’s help. My dog’s progress through this training has been life-changing for both of us.

My dog and I have completed one training session and have a follow up scheduled. After working with Cameron, I gained a new perspective about my relationship with my dog and her needs around feeling comfortable on the leash. I was surprised and delighted that we left our first session already showing so much progress. What has been most impactful was learning how to predict and interrupt the unwanted behaviors. Prior to reaching out to Chill Out Dog Training, I was actively working to reduce some of the leash reactivity on my own, with some results (over months of effort) but nothing near what we were able to do with Cameron’s help in just 90 minutes. I am so incredibly grateful and very hopeful for continued growth!

We’ve been told multiple times by our friends that we have a completely different dog. Through this training we’re now able to take our dog on stress free walks and feel 100% confident in his recall while camping and hiking. Cameron is knowledgeable, patient, and catered the training to our individual concerns and goals for our pup. I’ve been able to strengthen my relationship with my dog through this process and it’s been amazing to see him grow more confident with each session. Our dog can now enjoy park days instead of needing to stay home because he would be overstimulated and he has more freedom to safely explore on hikes. I could not recommend working with Cameron enough!

We can’t thank Scott and Chill Out Dog Training enough for helping us with our boy Fang (Aussie Shepherd). He was pulling on the leash, only wanting to do what he wanted, not potty trained, and overall not listening. After the first session his walking improved significantly and as things progressed he became confident while listening. Scott not only trained Fang but showed us everything we needed to do so that we could keep and maintain progress! Thank you so much!

Cameron was so great! He taught me everything I needed to know about using the e-collar with my pup!

I have a highly exuberant and reactive (excitement) male Great Dane. I had taken him to puppy classes, basic obedience classes, and tried my best to socialize him. But he's a wild 2.5-year old dude with leash and barrier reactivity. I'd worked with other trainers before Chill Out and had some small successes and set a solid foundation; however, I was to the point where I'd stopped walking my dog in my neighborhood because passing other dogs on the street or being surprised by a bike/motorcycle/garbage truck became too stressful to deal with. When I called Chill Out Dog Training, I was driving him and walking him in a business park area that was mostly free of triggers. I wanted to regain a sense of normalcy and after talking to Scott on the phone, I scheduled a session. Scott has been awesome to work with and I've had great results. He's taught me and my dog how to make e-collar training meaningful and I've regained a lot of confidence and control. After one session, I was able to walk Swayze in my neighborhood again. We still have some challenges, especially if we see other high energy or reactive dogs...but I feel equipped to handle 95% of situations and that's a place I never thought I'd be just a couple months ago. Chill Out Dog Training has been a really great investment - and Scott has been a great listener and continues to provide support.

Chill Out Dog Training is absolutely fantastic, the best money I have ever spent. I highly recommend working with Cameron and the other trainers for anyone struggling with training issues with their pet. After only one appointment my dog's severe leash reactivity has finally improved to the point where he can walk past other dogs with no reaction. I have spent years working with different trainers with minimal results. I was weary of e-collar training, but the results are very effective. My rescue dog had absolutely horrible leash reactivity, it was hard to even walk in my neighborhood, and it was taking a toll on my and my dog's quality of life. My dog is happier, more excited for his walks, and both of our quality of life has greatly improved. If you or your dog need training help, please reach out to Chill Out Dog Training for a free consultation call. Thank you Cameron and everyone at Chill Out Dog Training!

Cameron’s perceptiveness into my dog’s behaviors has really helped me to understand why he does what he does. I was a little apprehensive about using the e-collar, but it’s such an effective tool to quickly give my dog feedback so he can understand what behaviors just aren’t necessary. Within 3 sessions my dog no longer pulls on his leash, he’s showing appropriate curiosity in other dogs on walks without aggression, he’s getting more comfortable with greeting new dogs, his recall is improving, and his barking at strangers or people he’s not comfortable with has improved so much. Throughout this process, I’ve really appreciated Cameron’s knowledge and insight. He has really taken the time to understand what my dog needs as a rescue dog that’s fearful of men, new people, and new situations. My confidence and my dog’s has grown so much, and I feel like I have the tools and support to continue working on things on my own (but we might need a follow up session or two- we’ll see!) The training materials on their website have been helpful too. Overall, I’m so glad I went with this company. Their outlook of helping dogs understand how to “stay in their lane”, redirect their behavior, and trust their human more makes so much sense. My dog was reacting out of anxiety, fear, and he just didn’t know what to do in situations- which meant I didn’t either! But now we’re on such a great track. I’m very grateful!

My fiancée and I used Chill Out for two sessions to work with our dog on a couple habits we struggled to break. Cameron was able to help us immensely and provide insight and information on how to work with our dog (and any future dogs we own) to establish good habits and behave correctly regardless of the situation. We would highly recommend Chill Out dog training and can speak very highly of our trainer Cameron.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the training Luigi and I received from Cameron. After three sessions Luigi has learned to go to his place when guests arrive, to stay in the yard when the gate is open, come to me on command 100% of the time, walk by my side without tugging and so much more. More importantly I learned techniques that I can use if other issues arise. Thanks Cameron

I was scared to walk my pup before meeting Cameron. I now feel like I have the resources and skills to be a better owner to my leash reactive pup.

They worked a miracle in one session with my very challenging dog. Cameron is extremely calm and knowledgeable, and he is very good with both dogs and owners. Definitely recommend.

Before training with Cameron, my pittie mix struggled with anxiety and reactivity, making outings stressful. Cameron's holistic approach not only improved Denver's behavior but also boosted my confidence. His consistent support between sessions was invaluable. Our journey has been transformative, thanks to Cameron's expertise and dedication. Highly recommended!

We adopted our dog Nala in May of 2022 from a puppy mill in Iowa. Due to her experiences there, we had a long way to go to make her feel safe and comfortable. After about 7 months, we started to see some problem behaviors like separation anxiety, fear of men, strong reactions to minor noises or unexpected noises and incessant barking. We also struggled to have control over her when she would go on walks.

We had a consultation call with Cameron and really liked his approach. Cameron has been SO helpful to us. He’s helped us to understand Nala’s behaviors, know how to anticipate them and mostly importantly, know how to respond.

If you are considering using Chill Out Dog Training, it is worth every penny! We will be recommending Cameron to everyone we know who needs a little extra help with their furry friend!

It's been just under 1 year since we hired Scott to work with our young adult dog Ally.

Before we hired Scott, she was just... mean. She was incredibly JEALOUS and would nip at dogs that went anywhere near her bed or me. She'd whine and cry when a big dog came around, and frankly was just an aggressive jerk toward other dogs. It was honestly starting to affect my relationship with her! As I grew more resentful and frustrated, I finally hired CODT.

Then we had just ONE session with Scott. ONE. He's seriously a wizard. She is now a BRAND NEW DOG. She is now confident, sweet, and I bring her with me everywhere now. We have a dog-friendly office, where she used to be very aggressive. But now she goes every day and can be left alone. And she's nice! No longer a big jerk face 🙂 We originally hired him just to take care of her aggression toward other dogs, but we also got the added benefit of nicer greetings and better jumping managers! If you're on the fence at all, take it from someone who regrets waiting too long and book your session. You won't regret it.

Scott is extremely knowledgeable, professional, kind, and helpful! We were at a loss when out of nowhere two of our dogs started attacking each other. We hired Scott and he came to our rescue. He was passionate about learning about each dog, and genuinely cared. He helped us understand why the dogs were fighting, and gave us an amazing foundation to work with both of them separately and together. He trained us as much as he trained our dogs. I feel completely confident with our new skills, and our future with our dogs.

We had a great experience with Chill Out Dog Training! Scott is an amazing trainer who not only works with the dog but with the dog owners as well. We initially went to Scott because our dog Frank randomly started to exhibit dog reactivity behavior and wouldn’t stop whining and tugging whenever a dog was in sight. The walks became unpleasant to say the least. During our first 90 minute session with Scott, he educated us on why the behavior was occurring and we started to work with Frank immediately. After the first session- our walks instantly become enjoyable again- Frank ignores other dogs and walks right beside us! We then started to move onto other problem areas such as separation anxiety and social skills with Frank. Each session Scott was always professional, patient, and kind with his approach while working with Frank (and us). Just a heads up- Scott will give you “homework” and things to work on between sessions. In order to get the most out of your sessions with him be sure to come prepared with feedback and progress!

Scott helped us to resolve some dog reactivity issues with our Great Dane puppy. He was wonderful to work with! Scott took the time to understand our goals for our pup and came up with a plan that worked with our family and lifestyle. We really appreciated his balanced approach to training, he thoughtfulness and ability to adapt to our lifestyle with two very young kids, and his responsiveness to all of our questions. We've seen tremendous progress with our puppy, and even my husband bought in to his approach (which was a huge hurdle to clear in the first place!). I would highly recommend CODT to anyone who needs support with their dogs behavior!

Our precious Stella-dog had a wonderful training session w. Scott today. Her obnoxious behaviors came under control in a very short time with Scott's simple, straight-forward yet sensible instruction. We practiced with her and we will continue to practice what he taught our family.

YOU CAN TEACH AN OLD DOG NEW TRICKS! Our bichon Charlie benefitted tremendously from Scott’s work! He has always been a good hearted dog, but would panic (aka BARK) at the doorbell/landscapers/new guests in house/etc. He also had a real bad habit of pulling and choking himself on his leash.

We sent Charlie to the “Chill Out Bootcamp” for a week and we got back a totally “Chill Out Dog”! He heels perfectly now with his prong collar, and has learned to stay and be content in his “place” (dog bed) when guests arrive. He is a much happier dog now, not so anxious, and we owe a renewal on life for Charlie to Chill Out Dog Training- thanks guys!

We are so thankful for Chill Out Dog Training! Not only did our puppy, Luna, learn to chill out, but so did we! Luna was exhibiting the typical puppy behaviors for our first several months as owners. Potty training, bite pressure guidance, and boundary setting were daunting tasks. We were embarrassed when Luna would have an accident or greet another human with her mouth around their hand. It became exasperating to come home to a mess all over the floor, especially because we were in the middle of moving. However, Scott calmly walked us through the whole training process. The step-by-step training really helped us tackle one behavior at a time. Now, Luna is completely potty trained! She has learned a few tricks and is still learning how to be a well-behaved puppy. We have also become more informed and relaxed owners. Scott’s advice has truly helped us and we will continue to call Scott with any behavior questions in the future. I highly recommend Chill Out Dog Training!
