I have a six year old pomerainian and a 14 week old golden retriever. The golden retriever needed housebreaking and basic obedience training and the pomerainian was running wild in my apartment, lifting his leg and snarling at the puppy. Then I met Brandon from Pets at Play... [read full review on Yelp.com]

Pets at Play is a lifesaver! Taking our pup there is without a doubt one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had. My boyfriend and I live in LA but found ourselves in NYC for 4 months for work this winter. This was all great and exciting, except for the stress of figuring out how to not abandon our five month old English Bulldog, Terry... [read full review on Yelp.com]

Our little Cooper became part of the "pets-at-play family" when he was only a small puppy. (Now he is a bigger puppy!) Our Cooper is another ADD city dog, with a nose for trouble ... so he fits in perfectly with the gang at Pets-at-Play! [read full review on Yelp.com]

My two-year old mix Curtis (who is friends with Brooklyn!) has been going to Pets at Play for the past year. My dog is completely A.D.D. with limitless energy, but after a day of boarding (or daycare) Curtis comes home chill and relaxed. It's kind of a miracle... [read full review on Yelp.com]

I have owned many dogs in my life & I thought that they all loved and respected me, however, only after I went through your training program, with Brahma my Bull Mastiff, did I know what true love & respect truly was. Brandon, you have taught me how to communicate with her in ways I never imagined. She currently has forty-seven commands and going strong. Thank you again, Brandon.

PS - Brahma's doing great with the children. She never tries to steal their food or play with their toys anymore. When the children jump on her (I wish you could train them also) she just ignores them and moves on. Brahma is totally apart of the family now, she joins the family for all of our family activities.  ]

I just wanted to say thank you again, Brandon. I was at my wits end when you were recommended to me. I had been through three trainers who all knew nothing about dogs. They just knew one method of training and when it did not work they made me feel like it was my Boston Terrier's, Bella, fault or that of my own. When you finally came along, I was ready to give Bella away. After just six sessions with you, Bella was not only doing all of her commands, she had also stopped chewing the furniture, eating out of the litter box, and going in the house. Not only that, you made the whole experience fun. You have a great gift and both Bella and I are thankful from the bottom of our hearts.

'Brandon is so amazing at showing people how to properly socialize and train their dogs that when my clients come back for their next visit it is all that they can talk about. He is definitely an expert on the needs, desires, and languages of the dog. I personally have never seen anybody like him before and I strongly doubt I will ever meet anyone like him again.

Brandon also understands the in and the outs of the canines body and has often second guessed some Veterinarians decisions and to his credit he has been correct in doing so every time.

Brandon has aided my father (also a certified D.V.M.) on several occasions with hard to handle dogs. Each time after Brandon leaves my father would come to me in amazement with how simply Brandon would transform an aggressive dog on the table to a calm and well mannered dog on the table. He would tell me that "more often then not I do not even understand how he does these things, but it is an honor to be there when he does them."
