We worked with Margaret for a few sessions with our 11 month old dog, Finn. He was having leash reactivity issues, making it quite difficult to take him on walks without him barking up a storm at people and other dogs. We thought we’d truly never be able to bring him around my moms dog, Savannah. Margaret worked with Finn to boost confidence, reward good behavior and allowed us to take videos to continue to work with him.

She is a lovely person who truly has a passion for her work which is so beautiful to see these days!

To make a long story short, through working with Margaret we were able to slowly take finn on more walks! And now him and his aunt Savannah are now best friends and love playing together! We can’t recommend Margaret enough.

Excellent experience working with Margaret for my 2 year old Jack Russell rescue pup. Margaret made the training fun and positive, my dog and I had a great time at every session and we both learned so much. Margaret is patient, professional, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and clearly loves what she does. The Best trainer I have ever worked with!

There are not enough nice words to say about Margaret. My boyfriend and I rescued our poodle Harley from the meat market in South Korea, even though we got so lucky with his temperament, he didn’t know any basic commands or even english!! Margaret was so kind and patient but assertive. She helped train us and Harley in a way where we really understood. Even after the 1st session we saw a huge improvement, and after 6 I am so impressed with everything we know and now we have the exact tools for success. THANK YOU Margaret, we will forever be grateful for your expertise.

We recently completed several sessions with Margaret, after our dog had become a bit reactive with some dogs. Margaret was wonderful.. not only with our pup, but with her parents! Margaret gave us the tools to have a well behaved and happy pup! Most importantly, she gave us ALL the confidence we needed! Highly recommend Margaret!!!

We brought Margaret in to correct some unwanted behaviors in our year old Shih-Tzu pup including puppy biting, getting off furniture, unwanted barking. Margaret really got to know us and Jax prior to even meeting us in person, via a telephone interview so she was able to hit the ground running upon her arrival in our home for training. We purchased her 6 session package and feel that Margaret gave us the tools we need to raise a well mannered dog. Her positive training techniques allowed us to see the world from the dog’s perspective, showing us how to motivate the dog to do the right thing in all situations. Margaret was very pleasant to work with, even when she told us that we were doing the wrong things in our own training. Now it’s up to us to consistently apply the concepts we learned. We would recommend Margaret to any family looking to train any dog.

Margaret was easy to work with, friendly, and non judgemental. She took the time to get to know our dog, our concerns, and tailored a 6 course schedule to fit our needs. She brought us out into the community and trained our dog in a variety of settings; Loews, Horseshoe Lake, and our neighborhood and home. She is AMAZING!!! I feel so much more at ease when I walk our dog, plus she taught us so many great obedience tricks. We can never thank her enough!!
