I have had an excellent experience working with Adrienne Mesko. She provided a 4 week board and train session for my 2 yr old, 85lb. Terrier-mix, Winny. She was immediately responsive to all my inquiries from my initial contact, throughout training and after training was completed. She clearly laid out a plan for my dog's training. She was professional, clear and courteous in all business matters. Adrienne is a top notch dog trainer. She took on the daunting task of working with my difficult dog with confidence and understanding. She provided the level of training that she promised in the amount of time she estimated. She gave regular updates and progress reports. I am thrilled with my dog's progress and behavior. After the training was completed Adrienne spent time with me answering my questions, demonstrating equipment use and worked with me and Winny to transfer the knowledge of methods that worked so effectively with my dog. Due to her efforts I now have a dog who is well behaved and responsive. In addition, Adrienne is a kind and considerate person who took the time to listen and help. She is terrific to work with and I highly recommend her board and train program and off-leash training.

Adrienne, was very professional, knowledgeable, she was very helpful and she took her time trying to explain to me what I need to do to train my dogs. I would recommend Adrienne to train your dog.

I met with another dog trainer for a consultation, but decided to invest in Adrienne's three-week board and train program instead and it was totally worth it! My 6 month-old Brittany Spaniel was an independent and high-energy pup. She did not have much of a food or toy drive for attempting training on my own. She came back from Adrienne's program with much more self-control and a complete set of manners! I'll be sending her back to Adrienne when she's a bit older for some fine tuning, but in the meantime- I've got myself a much more manageable puppy!

Adrienne is incredible working with dogs and I highly recommend her! My family was feeling pretty hopeless about training our 3 dogs that are pretty out of control. After Adrienne came we actually saw immediate results in what she was teaching us and training the dogs actually felt do-able, and we finally have hope for our dogs now! We are in the beginning stages. She is a lovely person and my parents loved her so much, they even told her that they were resistant to having a trainer until they met her, because they liked her personality so much and really felt like she could help us!

Details: 2 dogs • 2 - 10 years old • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • Board and train programs at a facility • General obedience training • House training • Barking • I travel to the dog trainer

Adrienne was fantastic. Great communication, good value, excellent results. Our 1 year old doberman is no longer pulling on a leash, rides better in the car, now knows the “place” command, and responds to recall requests flawlessly. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for dog boarding and/or training. Will definitely be using her services again in the future.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a standard weekly rate for board and trains, length of time will vary according to what your dog needs. Behavioral modification programs for aggressive dogs are priced on a case by case basis. I have a standard rate for private lessons and offer set rate packages to make lessons more affordable.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Everything I do is customized to the client's needs. Sometimes people just need brushing up on obedience or help with household management issues. These clients benefit from private lessons. However, the majority of our clientele take advantage of our board and train programs. The process of training begins with an evaluation of your dog and the issues unique to your household and setup. This is done at pickup of your dog and the start of training. Your dog will spend anywhere from 2-6 weeks with us depending on the program you have selected. During that time your dog will receive daily walks, training and diligent care in a comfortable home, not a dog kennel. You will receive weekly video updates and are welcome to reach out to us at any time to check in on your dog. Upon completion of training, you will receive a lesson in your home (usually approximately 2 hours) to reintegrate your dog into your home and transfer the training over to you.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In addition to years of training and competing with my own dogs, I attended The Michael Ellis School for Dog Trainers in Fairfield, California in 2014. There I learned Michael's highly effective training system. After completing my formal education in California I went on to complete a two year apprenticeship with a specialized sport and obedience trainer in western Pennsylvania. During that time I truly learned dog training--drive, motivation, breaking things down into pieces, setting criteria and not deviating. I also ran private lessons and trained and cared for boarding dogs at the facility. This formed the foundation of all of the work I do today.
