About
Hi, I'm Benji Tompkins, a certified dog behaviorist living in Arlington, originally from Colorado. I have been training dogs since I was young, starting with family dogs and then expanding to the neighbors' pups. Though I worked in restaurants and various corporate environments after college, my adoration for dogs and people remained at the center of my being. When it comes to training, my primary focus is guiding the human caregivers towards developing leadership skills to teach their own dogs. I believe that if I only train the dog and send them back without empowering the owners, I have failed in my training. I concentrate on teaching people the art of communication between them and their pets to facilitate building a mutual relationship founded on trust, respect, and love, rather than drills like sit, down, come, stay, heel.
I strive to establish open communication with my clients to address their concerns and fill in the gaps with their dogs. As a pet parent myself, I appreciate the importance of four-legged family members, and I treat my clients' dogs as my own.

Benji has been incredibly helpful in training my dog. Despite the short amount of time, I would highly recommend him. My dog Lucas used to be anxious and unable to sit still or relax inside our home, but with Benji's assistance, we were able to see significant improvement in just a matter of days.

Benji is an exceptional dog trainer who goes above and beyond for his clients. He possesses a remarkable ability to connect with dogs and his services have helped my pup transform from a chaotic whirlwind to a calm and collected companion. Unlike other trainers who focus solely on teaching tricks and temporary obedience, Benji prioritizes building strong bonds with pets and understanding their behavior. He serves as a guide to help owners train and appreciate their dogs' instincts and operates with ethical values that set him apart from other training companies. Benji is professional, courteous, and excels at explaining dog behavior, and after just a few sessions, we have seen remarkable progress in our furry friend. She is now well-behaved around guests, listens to commands like 'sit' and 'stay', and walks better on a leash. We are incredibly grateful to have found this amazing trainer, and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a top-tier dog training experience!

Benji possesses expertise in handling aggressive dogs. My pit mix was not responsive to constant treat-based rewards, due to her high level of intelligence. The primary challenge we faced was her ability to interact with the other animals in our household. Benji's approach enabled us to establish order amid the chaos in our home. He is a phenomenal trainer, and I highly recommend him to anyone who requires assistance with their dogs.

It was a fantastic experience collaborating with Benji. He possesses extensive knowledge and provides valuable insights, making him an exceptional trainer. His training techniques are truly remarkable. I am 100% confident that I made the right choice by selecting him as my pup's trainer. In just two encounters with Benji, I have gained a lot of knowledge on how to communicate with my furry friend, and I am eager to witness the outcomes of putting his advice into practice. I would highly suggest Canine Communication for all of your dog training requirements.

As soon as I reached out, he promptly replied and arranged a virtual consultation with me. During our meeting, he took his time and imparted a wealth of valuable knowledge about dog training, which I am currently utilizing. Without a doubt, I will enlist his services as soon as I am ready.
