🐾✨ Some of our happy clients:

Becky and Sophie, Irvine CA

Alex Aiken came to our home and helped us know how to train our labradoodle Sophie from the first week in our home. We continued until she attained the AKC Good Canine Citizen level. We have enjoyed pack walks and visits as a pet therapy dog to children’s library with Aiken trained dogs. Would definitely recommend giving Aiken Dog Training a call!

Mari and Peetie, Mission Viejo CA

We were so lucky to meet Alex Tamaki and have him help us with our 12-month old Chihuahua. Alex’s training is not your typical training in my opinion. He takes it to another level, and reminds us that it’s a two way street. That we need to understand the dog’s perspective as well to achieve a mutually rewarding relationship. It was refreshing to learn the techniques while taking into consideration my dog’s perspective and unique needs. Thank you Alex! We look forward to keeping in touch.

Mandalina, Carson, and Stash, Aliso Viejo CA

Alex was absolutely wonderful. He was extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviors and training for both my puppy and son. He gave my son weekly training tasks and was excited each week to see our success. I have already recommended him to several other dog owners. I look forward to working with Alex and his wife again in the near future!

Cheryl and iPod, Aliso Viejo CA

Alex is awesome. He can immediately assess your dog, what the issues are and come up with a reasonable plan. He can help you train your dog to be the best dog he/she can be. Alex has been able to stop my dog from excessive barking. Yeah! If you want a gentle calm and positive approach to training your dog with swift results Alex and Aiken training is your place! Thanks Alex!!!

😀 Experienced, flexible, affordable 💪

Mona and Ziggy, Las Flores CA

I highly recommend Aiken Dog Training. Alex is an absolutely wonderful trainer, highly skilled in positive only reinforcement training methods! Alex trained my 10 month old rescue and he is now a confident, amazing Canine Good Citizen!! They spend time getting to know the individual dog, its owner, and environment, so that training is optimally tailored to each client’s particular dog. If you are looking for a good, experienced trainer, do not hesitate to call Alex & Julie at Aiken, as they are incredibly dedicated to fulfilling the potential of every dog they work with

Jake, Barley, Butterscotch, Aliso Viejo

Alex worked with our two Goldens, one 2 years old and one just 5 months old. From the moment Alex met them, he was able to gain their respect and attention. He really is like a dog whisperer. Most importantly, he taught us how to gain their respect and attention at all times. Dogs shouldn’t take you for a walk and you shouldn’t cater to their demands and habits. It needs to be the other way around. This done almost exclusively via positive reinforcement too. By the end of our lessons, our Goldens were able to pass the Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test with flying colors. We’re excited to use Alex for more training

Kathy and Sophie, Aliso Viejo CA

Alex is a great Dog Trainer. He is very caring with the dogs and their owners. As a pack we serve the community with our dogs at the Woof and Read program at the library and we visit the nursing home once a month. Alex is always giving us as dog owners help in training and bonding with our dogs. He is very involved in AKC. He has made a loving difference in my dogs behavior. I highly recommend Aiken Dog Training

Sydney,Colin, and Koda, Laguna Niguel CA

Alex is incredible. He was a perfect fit for my family. Alex was very patient, attentive and not only did he help to train my dog but he also trained me! I would highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a little or a lot of hands on training. My dog and I are now part of this beautiful pack family that Alex has cultivated over his time as a trainer. He really cares about the dogs and their owners, he’s very genuine. I can’t give him enough praise!
