I chose to decline his services based on the negative reviews. I told my reason to the woman I followed up with. She hung up on me and a few minutes later Dave called me. He said that the reviews are fake and they are done by his competitors. I would have given him a chance to show me real customer references, but when I started to ask questions, he came unhinged.  He was crude on the phone calling me words like b*&ch and threatened to use my phone number to find out where I live and come after me and F me up. He made threats of violence against me and said I would regret ever calling him. This is not just a case of a poorly run business. This was a frightening experience.

Threatening people is a crime if the victims choose to press charges. 

From my experience being threatened and cursed at by him from simply declining his services, the only logical conclusion is that all the bad reviews are true. There are bad reviews for Super Dog and for David Baron on many websites. All you  have to do is search for Super Dog reviews and you will find plenty of scary stories of people being threatened like I was, their dogs being abused, etc. If you look up his BBB rating it's not good. 

He has another website that shows many photos of him. http://www.doganswers.com

I'm frightened for my family's safety after simply calling for information about a dog trainer. I will NEVER call a business for estimates without checking reviews first ever again.

ANOTHER WEIRDO WHO NEVER USED MY BUSINESS

AUTHOR: Cadogtrainer - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, April 22, 2014

These people on these sites usually do not work and are jealous of others who are successful.  Imagine any professional, like a doctor or a lawyer, writing something anonymous and hateful like this person did.  We have an A-rating with the Better Business Bureau, my business has never been sued by a client, all these complaints are written by weirdos who never used my business, like this woman, or by jealous competitors anonymously.

You can call me and ask me questions and talk to me, but you can't call "the haters" because they post things anonymously.

He called me. How is he being stalked?

AUTHOR: EH - (United States of America)

POSTED: Friday, July 13, 2012

He keeps posting a link to his lawsuit on every review site as if that nullifies his atrocious behavior. What does that have to do with anything about anything?  

Sadly he has a mess on his hands with all these bad reviews and his lawsuit, but instead of treating potential customers nicely and fixing it, he is just making things worse.

I never heard of Super Dog or David until I searched for a dog trainer in my area a couple of days ago. His website is really well optimized so it came up a bunch of times in my search. I left a message on their machine asking for someone to call me with pricing and information.

I then did a search for reviews, which I should have done before I called. The reviews were not just bad, they were downright frightening- reports of  him calling women the "C" word, the "B" word, threatening to kill people, taking people's money, abusing people's dogs. I did NOT want to talk to this man after I read all of that. I really regretted ever calling them. 

I called back expecting to leave a message and a woman answered. I told her that I had left a message earlier but I've decided I'm not interested. She asked why and I politely told her that the reviews for her company weren't good. She hung up on me. 

A few minutes later David called me. I have his number and name on my caller ID, so how he can say that HE is being stalked is laughable. He immediately got defensive and argumentative. I tried to have a rational conversation with him, but he just came unglued and starting yelling and cursing. He accused me of being in league with his competitors and yelled out a bunch of names of people I've never heard of. He growled "Listen b*tch, I will look up your address using your phone numbers and come to your house and f**k you up. I will  haul your a** into court and drag you into all of this. You will regret you ever called me." Well yeah, ya think? I regretted it the minute I read about his crazy behavior. The threats went on and on. Into court for what exactly? For not wanting to do business with a psychopath??? 

Again HE called ME to harass me. I was trying to avoid talking to him by calling back and cancelling my estimate. He literally attacked and threatened me after I said maybe three sentences to this  man I had never even heard of until that day. 

I called the police and filed a report so if he is trying to say that this isn't true, I have the police report. I have HIS number on MY caller ID that he called me to bother me. He mouthed off to the police when they called him and hung up on them and they had to call him back! This is what you are dealing with here. 

If he really wants to fix his tarnished reputation, TRY BEING NICE TO potential customers!! Why not provide a list of references that I could call? Why not be super nice and kind and offer me a discount for trying his training? He says all these reviews are fake and then he acts the way the reviews say he acts. HELLO! Mc Fly! Is this thing on? Does this make any sense David??? There are a million other choices he could have made rather than call me curse words and threaten violence to me. That is crazy behavior and it's terrifying. I am speaking up because I worry for elderly people and women who might  invite this man into their homes. 

I found out that our local animal shelter holds dog training classes and all the money benefits the shelter. I will be going there. I am thankful that he showed me his true colors on the phone because I could have had him in my home with my children and that thought terrifies me. 

Apparently he is convinced that I was put up to calling him by his competitor. I want to laugh because it's so pathetic and sad. I was a potential customer that ended up calling the cops on him because of a phone call. That is nuts!
