“James gave me and my family the tools to succeed in training our dog. Kodi is now a well behaved member that we can take anywhere. We would not trust anyone else for overnight. His book is a great read for all, especially my daughters. We trust the entire Hunt family. James, Anna, Noah, Niki, and Amigo are the best and will care for your pet like their own. If you desire a well behaved pet look no further!”

"I have known James for over 35 years. He is not only a wonderful human, but an extremely talented canine trainer. James has successfully trained several of my dogs over the years and I am always impressed with his calm, confident and knowledgeable approach. James offers a wide range of training services and utilizes a proven curriculum which translates to amazing results "

“James is excellent with dogs! Over the years, he has trained four of my dogs. One of them is a hyper, strong-willed German Shephard that was very difficult to work with. James taught her (and us) to be an obedient dog that has become an essential part of our family. He not only understands dogs but loves them deeply. I would trust James and his family with any of my dogs. Although he has moved two hours away, I would make the drive to have my dogs cared for by him knowing they will be in great hands. I highly recommend J.L. Hunt Dog Ranch to anyone in need of training or boarding their dogs.”

“James is the most knowledgeable trainer I have ever been around. He taught us to work with our dog Ivy, so she grew to be a well-adjusted and obedient part of our family. We trust her to behave properly in any situation. The lessons we learned through our sessions with James have been invaluable to the enjoyment of having a very large dog in our house!”
