SoCal Bite Club -

Nancy Brown-Mattiace

Bite club days are always a favorite in this household. We love coming out and seeing our family and friends and leaving with a renewed sense of what we need to work on going forward and feeling inspired as another trainer as well. I will always look to Neil for guidance, inspiration and support. As a trainer but also as a friend. He’s brought back my sense of confidence as a handler and always pushes me to work through things I struggle with.

I cannot express enough how incredible my experience has been with Neil and Terri. From the moment we met at a training seminar they were hosting, it was clear that they possess an extraordinary understanding of dogs and a genuine passion for helping them thrive.

Initially, I sought their help to introduce my dogs to bite-work, but I ended up scheduling private sessions that improved not only my dogs’ skills but also my own abilities as a handler and trainer. They empower me to fuse what I already knew, with their techniques and knowledge, and it has helped immensely.

Neil and Terri are patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about the well-being of both dogs and their owners.

Do you and your dog a solid by checking them out. I highly recommend!

Neil and Terri are the best of the best. I have been going to bite club for a little over a month now, and have also done a private with them. The bond between my dog and I has grown so much since starting. Not only that, the community is so welcoming and kind, always lifting each other up. My dog LOVES going, and I love seeing her progress in such a short amount of time. Both Neil and Terri have been so patient with my girl, and willing to work with her through her quirks. It doesn’t matter what breed of dog you own, or what level your dog is in bite work, bite club doesn’t discriminate! I highly recommend them to anyone. What an incredible community to be apart of?

Terri and Neil are professional, kind and empathetic people, ethical, and experienced dog trainers! They always put the dogs emotions first and they never rush dogs in their training. I have always felt comfortable and welcomed with training! They are amazing at explaining training theories, experiences, and educating new owners and seasoned owners.
They have really elevated my sport dog journey to where I finally feel confident on the field with my dog.
Highly recommend!!!

Neil and Terri are AMAZING!!! Their warm and welcoming nature, paired with their incredible dedication to the growth of both handlers and dogs, truly sets SoCal Bite Club apart. The knowledge I’ve gained here is invaluable, and I’m beyond grateful to be part of this club. I can’t thank Neil and Terri enough for everything they’ve done, and I always look forward to going to club every week!

I am forever grateful for Neil and Terri! They’re so incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming, and passionate about what they do. A few months ago I reached out regarding their dog trotter for our dog Brutus, Brutus has so much energy and walks weren’t enough for him. They invited me to come out and see the Club and how everything works, everyone was so incredibly welcoming I got to talk to other owners who have dogs like ours. My boyfriend was unsure at first, but after seeing our dogs do their thing and get the outlet they needed his exact words were “I wish we found them sooner!” And I couldn’t agree more! Sadie has been through so many trainers and normally shuts down and reacts with new people. Never have I seen her confidence shine like it has been she seems more sure of herself. And Brutus listens so much better he seems calm and content. I cannot wait to learn more and continue to watch them grow! Thank you so so much again for everything!!!

Neil and Terri are fantastic. They have made incredible progress with our foster/rescue Akita. We have been so impressed with their knowledge and techniques. They are big proponents of setting up the dog for success and working with them in a positive way. They are easy to work with, and are constantly engaging the dog during the training session. It is really fascinating to watch. You cannot go wrong with SoCal Bite Club.

I’ve been going to bite club for about 6mos now and can confidently say that it’s the highlight of my week. Neil and Terri are extremely educated, kind, and most of all fun. I’ve had the pleasure of watching so many dogs of all breeds and backgrounds grow into their full potential. I cannot recommend SoCal Bite Club enough.
