"At first I was hesitant about online training, but Michael was always available and watched me train my dog through videos.
Online training is a much more affordable option and lets me go at my own pace. Our meetings were always helpful as I had already prepared a lot of questions.
After these 6 weeks, I learned so much about dog behaviour, training, and how to build a strong relationship with my dog which is so important for training later on."

Dane Mattran
"Michael has been a fantastic coach for helping with my dog's reactive behavior. He offers valuable insight and guidance on individual scenarios that your dog may experience in the one on one sessions.
I have brought my dog to training classes in a group setting, but it doesn't compare to the individual attention you receive with Michael's training course. I would highly recommend Matador to any dog owner that needs help with reactivity training."

Elyse Latreille
"Working with Michael Accetta/Matador Canine over zoom has been fantastic! He really took the time to get to know us and our specific goals. He is clearly very passionate and excited about dog training, not only did I learn alot, but it was also so much fun!
We tried some of the things he told us to do the same night and my new rescue dog learned it right away. He also keeps our long term goals in mind (ex. dog sports) and gave us great tips to work in now to make it easier for us in the future."
So, Why Virtual Training?
Training your dog is a personal experience — without being involved in the training, your dog will become a robot for someone else. NOT to mention dog's that get distracted do terrible in group classes for obvious reasons.
That’s Where “Virtual Training” Comes In.
With virtual training you get everything you need to build a stronger relationship with your dog without being in embarrassing situations, spending weeks apart, and as a bonus you have full control over what style of training you choose.

Angie Holt
We have a dog that needs help with high anxiety and lunges at other dogs as well as their owners. Michael has been willing to take time to talk with us and teach us as well as her with this behavior. He was very prompt with reaching back to me when I called. He is very professional and kind. And very patient. If you have a need for your furry family member I highly recommend Michael at Matador Canine.

Judy Bandy
Mike is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and is able to explain complex issues. He has a great sense of humor and is able to communicate clearly by using examples. His visual aids are well thought out, and pinpoint the topic at hand. Our dog Finn has shown distinct improvement in his behaviors and we owe Mike a great deal of credit for that.
We highly recommend him, and his services.

Julia Bora
Mike is doing an amazing job training my puppy, he gets results fast using great techniques. Just as important, he is good at explaining and teaching how to train so that progress can continue at home.
He is a professional and personable trainer who will answer all of your questions. Mike gave clear training expectations/plans and provides health updates, training updates, as well as photos and videos. Mike is an excellent communicator who never leaves you wondering about your dog.
Mike takes into account the dog's temperment and is one of the most patient people I have met. He even went out if his way to provide my puppy with medication, as well as providing the correct training supplies.
🌟 I highly recomend Mike, he is an amazing trainer and somebody I would trust with any fur baby in a heartbeat. 🐕🌟

Sabrina Cheng
I highly recommend Michael and his online courses. I got my SDiT prospect (lab + pitbull mix) when she was 13 weeks old and I did a lot of my own research in dog training, but having the help of a professional makes a huge difference in our results and our progress.
His instructional videos are clear and break down training into specific actionables. His training method works for anything, and up to now I am still using his training methods. My dog is 1 year old now and I worked with Michael for the first 6 weeks I had my puppy.
In addition to the videos, we met weekly to discuss any questions or issues I was running into with my specific puppy. He was flexible with meeting times and we didn’t have to meet every week if we didn’t need to, saving the session for later. During the week, he was responsive to texts and emails whenever I had questions or a video to send him. I took videos of my training throughout the week which he reviewed prior to meetings. At first I was hesitant about online training, but Michael was always available and watched me train my dog through videos. Online training is a much more affordable option and lets me go at my own pace. Our meetings were always helpful as I had already prepared a lot of questions.
After these 6 weeks, I learned so much about dog behaviour, training, and how to build a strong relationship with my dog which is so important for training later on.

Ellen Peirce
We rescued two mixed breed terriers in August 2021, and while we love these little brothers, they were difficult to control in our house, but especially on the street. They were highly reactive, and barked and charged at other dogs, and at our neighbors. This was difficult for us, as we are not young, and...we were aware of the judgement of our neighbors. We worked with Michael on Zoom for several weeks, and sent him occasional videos, and took the pups for a walk using our phone as a camera so that he could see the behavior.
We appreciated the fact that Michael works from a supportive, reward-based philosophy, which was easy for us to follow. It felt much better than constant correction/scolding. We learned to look for cues from the pups, and their behavior has improved markedly. We will continue to use his philosophy and train the dogs consistently.
Besides giving us good counsel, Michael is friendly and pleasant, and he laughed at our jokes...a prime consideration on this end. We would recommend using Michael as a support, and excellent trainer.

Dane Mattran
Michael has been a fantastic coach for helping with my dog's reactive behavior. He offers valuable insight and guidance on individual scenarios that your dog may experience in the one on one sessions. I have brought my dog to training classes in a group setting, but it doesn't compare to the individual attention you receive with Michael's training course. I would highly recommend Matador to any dog owner that needs help with reactivity training.

Nancy Kasimer
Michael was an excellent teacher and clearly has extensive knowledge of canine behavior and behavioral interventions and principles. He was great interacting with us and with our dog! We ordered his book and planned a training program. He offered phone support if we ran into any problems or had questions.

Angela Cioci
We have a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy who was as rambunctious and wild as they come. We were at our wits end with the jumping and the nipping. Michael showed us how to train her through constant positive reinforcement and commands. We don't know what we would have done without him. His level of expertise and experience with all breeds is what made us choose him as our trainer. I recommend him to everyone regardless of the size or age of your pup. Here's a pic of our baby at 5 months old.

Cheyanne Matulewich
I loved working with Michael! He brought so much experience to the table and helped me train my restless puppy. The fact that he can help you from states away, virtually, is really unique to me. And it worked great.
