Owner & Lead Trainer · Modern Premier Canine
Brian is a native of Richmond, Virginia — one of the most dog-friendly cities in America. He has over 20 years of dog training and behaviorist experience, and he is well known among his friends, family, and community as the Dog Whisperer, or “Cesar ‘Malone’” as an endearing comparison to Cesar Millan.
Through Modern Premier K9, Brian works with dogs and their people across Richmond and online, from brand-new puppies to adult dogs dealing with serious behavior challenges. Sessions focus on practical skills that hold up at home, on the sidewalk, and out in the community.
There isn’t a dog or breed too difficult for Brian’s elite skill set. Instead of handing over a generic obedience checklist, he takes the time to understand what is actually happening — then builds a plan that the whole household can follow.
The Modern Premier Dog Training Method™ is an exclusive, world-renowned 5-pillar leadership system. It is reward-driven, highly effective, easy to follow, and enjoyable — and it can train any dog, all breeds, sizes, ages, and behaviors.
