Megan deserves a huge thank you ,she is very responsive before and while your dog is in training with updating you. My dog is a changed boy and it's only been a week since he's been home. He's so much more responsive so i can control his energy level when it isnt the right time. I now feel comftable taking him in public as well. After the 2 week training the training she does with you and your dog the day of pickup was super helpful . I have already reccommended her to family and friends and will be sending my other dog to her very soon .

Our experience was outstanding!! We felt our pup was in good hands every step of the way. Daily videos, pictures and work progress made us know what to do and expect once we had our lab back in our loving home. The compassion, care and love for Stoli was well known and shown. Thank you!! Stoli below, in place, attentively awaiting break!!!(see below)

4 yrs ago, I became disabled & rescued a puppy. She "trained" both of us very patiently. Fluffy is a fully trained service dog (she carefully determined what needs I would have & when appropriate helped with those skills) & who now helps with my vision issues when we are out in public. Whenever I've needed boarding (emergency hospital visits or travel etc) she's been there. While in his care, he would get socialization (he & his best buds play together), loved on & cared for just as if he was her own. Advised on service dog & other training concerns. Always gone out of her way to help however and whenever I needed. Lots of handholding & reassurances. I will miss her greatly & hope to find someone with her skills & love for animals in our new home. He's a 50+ dog who loves people, other dogs & cuddles. But who also knows how to follow commands while helping me get around.

Megan, has to be hands down the best dog trainer I’ve ever met. Her knowledge is remarkable! If you’re worried about signing up with her, don’t be. She’s even been my go to for watching over my dogs while I’m away. I Definitely recommend her!

Megan helped me train my 8 year old Chesapeake Bay Retriever and to put it simply, it was the best thing I’ve ever done. He is a completely different dog! He listens and knows his commands and responds well, especially since she effectively retrained me on how to handle him. I highly recommend talking to her about training your dog, it’s the best money I’ve ever spent!
